Adding custom layout to PreferenceFragment
android
Solution
In your preference xml file (`res/xml/prefs.xml`), add a `Preference` with a custom layout:
<Preference
android:layout="@layout/custom_preference"/>
Example of `layout/custom_preference.xml` with an `ImageView` and a `TextView` with a link that will be opened in the browser:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/ic_book" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="http://www.mylink.com"
android:autoLink="all"/>
</LinearLayout>
It's the last preference in the screenshot:
Problem
I have a preference fragment with a preference screen hierarchy. I would like to add a custom layout to define an "about the author" section, adding imageview to an element and a link (intent to browser). I searched but I didn't find any resources about this topic.
