    <p>I know there is a lot of discussions around custom spinners, however I am still not able to grasp how to do it. What I want is a spinner with a custom layout for the dropdown items and a custom layout for the spinner when not "activated". When the app runs the spinner have the specific layout(when not activated) however when activated it chrashes, which makes me believe there might be a problem with the xml. But here it goes(btw I use mono and c#);</p> <p>I create a ArrayAdapter for the spinner this way, where I set a layout for the spinner Resource.Layout.SpinnerView and for the dropdown Resource.Layout.SpinnerRow:</p> <pre><code>ArrayAdapter spinnerArrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter(this.Context,Resource.Layout.SpinnerView,Resource.Id.spinnertext,_listOfUmbracoItems); spinnerArrayAdapter.SetDropDownViewResource(Resource.Layout.SpinnerRow); </code></pre> <p>Resource.Layout.SpinnerView:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:local="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/dk.appsfabrikken.cmsapp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" &gt; &lt;ImageView android:src="@drawable/eduvalg" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:scaleType="centerInside" android:padding="0.0dp" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:id="@+id/backgroundimageview" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/spinnertext" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center" android:layout_marginTop="0.0dp" /&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>Resource.Layout.SpinnerRow:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:background="@drawable/down" android:gravity="center" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>And I add the spinner to the activity layout with the following xml:</p> <pre><code>&lt;CmsApp.Droid.Controls.UmbracoSpinner android:id="@+id/spinnerMenu" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@android:color/transparent" android:drawSelectorOnTop="true" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>I tried to use the the samelayout Resource.Layout.SpinnerView for both and then the app would not chrash - however then i have not the correct custom layout for the drop down items.</p> <p>I hope someone can help me and point me in the right direction.</p> <p>---UPDATE--- The following is log when i chrashes and it seems to be an nullpointer which I dont fully understand.</p> <pre><code>04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): java.lang.NullPointerException 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.ArrayAdapter.createViewFromResource(ArrayAdapter.java:353) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.ArrayAdapter.getDropDownView(ArrayAdapter.java:376) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.Spinner$DropDownAdapter.getDropDownView(Spinner.java:329) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.Spinner$DropDownAdapter.getView(Spinner.java:325) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.AbsListView.obtainView(AbsListView.java:1315) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.ListView.measureHeightOfChildren(ListView.java:1198) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.ListView.onMeasure(ListView.java:1109) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.View.measure(View.java:8171) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewGroup.measureChildWithMargins(ViewGroup.java:3132) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.measureChildBeforeLayout(LinearLayout.java:1012) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.measureVertical(LinearLayout.java:381) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.onMeasure(LinearLayout.java:304) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.View.measure(View.java:8171) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewGroup.measureChildWithMargins(ViewGroup.java:3132) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.measureChildBeforeLayout(LinearLayout.java:1012) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.measureVertical(LinearLayout.java:381) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.LinearLayout.onMeasure(LinearLayout.java:304) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at com.android.internal.widget.WeightedLinearLayout.onMeasure(WeightedLinearLayout.java:60) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.View.measure(View.java:8171) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewGroup.measureChildWithMargins(ViewGroup.java:3132) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.FrameLayout.onMeasure(FrameLayout.java:245) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.View.measure(View.java:8171) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewGroup.measureChildWithMargins(ViewGroup.java:3132) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.widget.FrameLayout.onMeasure(FrameLayout.java:245) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.View.measure(View.java:8171) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewRoot.performTraversals(ViewRoot.java:801) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.view.ViewRoot.handleMessage(ViewRoot.java:1727) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4627) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:868) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:626) 04-26 22:45:47.423: E/AndroidRuntime(11536): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
