Solution

You can use the built-in android.R.layout.simple_list_item_2 to create two line textView.

Problem

I have made a android listView taking the help from Vogella.com using following layout and ListActivity class. RowLayout.xml ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" > <ImageView android:id="@+id/icon" android:layout_width="22px" android:layout_height="22px" android:layout_marginLeft="4px" android:layout_marginRight="10px" android:layout_marginTop="4px" android:src="@drawable/icon" > </ImageView> <TextView android:id="@+id/label" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@+id/label" android:textSize="20px" > </TextView> </LinearLayout> ``` MyListActivity.java ``` package de.vogella.android.listactivity; import android.app.ListActivity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; import android.widget.ListView; import android.widget.Toast; public class MyListActivity extends ListActivity { public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) { super.onCreate(icicle); String[] values = new String[] { "Android", "iPhone", "WindowsMobile", "Blackberry", "WebOS", "Ubuntu", "Windows7", "Max OS X", "Linux", "OS/2" }; // use your own layout ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.rowlayout, R.id.label, values); setListAdapter(adapter); } @Override protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) { String item = (String) getListAdapter().getItem(position); Toast.makeText(this, item + " selected", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } } ``` I want to add a sub item below the textView and keep the full text portion in the center of each row. How can I do it?
