    <p>I try to change the content of a Listview in Android. After that I want the list to be redrawn. Unfortunately the list elements change, but the old items are displayed in the background. If there are less items in the new list it seems like the old items are still part of the list, as they are still displayed, even though they are not clickable. If I jump out of the app via the Android Taskmanager and afterwards open the app again, the list gets displayed correctly! Therefore I think it must be a problem with refresh. </p> <p>How do I try to achieve it:</p> <p>As the complete content changes I create a new adapter that I pass to the ListView. In my code "favorites" is the new Array that I pass to the adapter. I also try to clear the list and invalidate it. all of this happens in the UI thread (onPostExecute of AsyncTask)</p> <pre><code> MyAdapter newAdapter = new MyAdapter( context, favorites); MyAdapter current_adapter = (MyAdapter) myList.getAdapter(); if((current_adapter!=null)){ current_adapter.clear();} myList.setAdapter(null); //inserted this because of answers, but with no effect. myList.setAdapter(newAdapter); myList.invalidateViews(); </code></pre> <p>The clear method of the adapter:</p> <pre><code> public void clear(){ items.clear(); notifyDataSetChanged(); } </code></pre> <p>As you can see I tried all of the solutions to similar problems her on stackoverflow. Unfortunately nothing worked...</p> <p>Thanks in advance for any ideas how to solve this.</p> <p>Edit:</p> <p>I have also tried to set the adapter null before passing the new one, also with no effect. .setAdapter(null);</p> <p>Also if I open the keyboard by clicking in a editText, the screen refreshs and the list is displayed correctly.</p>

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.
