    <p>I'm using <strong>ActionBarSherlock</strong> and I'm trying to customize the <em>activatedBackgroundIndicator</em> attribute for the row background.</p> <p>If I use the latest android sdk, without the <strong>ActionBarSherlock</strong>, I'm able to customize the background creating the following style on <em>res/values/style.xml</em> and defining it on <em>AndroidManifest.xml</em> as <em>android:theme="@style/Theme.Custom"</em>: </p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;resources&gt; &lt;style name="Theme.Custom" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar"&gt; &lt;item name="android:activatedBackgroundIndicator"&gt;@drawable/activated_background&lt;/item&gt; &lt;/style&gt; &lt;/resources&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then, my <em>res/drawable/activated_background.xml</em> contains the next code: </p> <pre><code>&lt;selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"&gt; &lt;item android:state_activated="true" android:drawable="@color/row_activated" /&gt; &lt;item android:drawable="@android:color/transparent" /&gt; &lt;/selector&gt; </code></pre> <p>Finally, the code used to define each row in the ListView is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator"&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/test_row" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/sample_string" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" android:padding="15dp"/&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>The result is shown on the screenshoot. Is a simple application with only a ListView with <strong>ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE</strong> and <strong>getListView().setItemChecked(position, true)</strong> when list item clicked. </p> <p>The blue color of the standard selected row now is yellow and works perfectly.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/mfwch.png" alt="List without ABS"></p> <p>The problem appears when I want to apply the same customization using the ActionBarSherlock. Now The style file is the next and the background appears blue instead the custom yellow.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;resources&gt; &lt;style name="Theme.Custom" parent="Theme.Sherlock.Light.DarkActionBar"&gt; &lt;item name="activatedBackgroundIndicator"&gt;@drawable/activated_background&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:activatedBackgroundIndicator"&gt;@drawable/activated_background&lt;/item&gt; &lt;/style&gt; &lt;style name="activatedBackgroundIndicator"&gt; &lt;item name="android:background"&gt;?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator&lt;/item&gt; &lt;/style&gt; &lt;/resources&gt; </code></pre> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Q3P6x.png" alt="List with ABS"></p> <p>I don't know if <strong>ActionBarSherlock</strong> supports the <em>android:activatedBackgroundIndicator</em> feature or if I forgot to implement something needed to be able to change the default color.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p>

    1. COActionBarSherlock does support the activatedBackgroundIndicator attribute. Also, why do you have a style named "activatedBackgroundIndicator" defined in your XML?

    2. COI searched for projects implementing this functionality and I found [Put.io](https://github.com/DSteve595/Put.io/blob/master/res/values/styles.xml) is using it.

    3. COI added the style trying to make it work, but if it isn't necessary I will delete it. Then @Alex-Fu, the implementation using ActionBarSherlock must be the same as default?

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
