android custom EditText UI
android
Solution
Have you checked out the Notepad sample? They have a custom TextEdit class that draws a line between each row of text:

Could you override onDraw() the same way to do what you're looking for?
Problem
I would like to customize the way the default EditText is drawn on the screen, I have this code: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item android:state_pressed="true" > <shape android:shape="rectangle"> <solid android:color="#00ff00" /> <stroke android:width="5dp" android:color="#ff0000" android:dashWidth="3dp" android:dashGap="2dp" /> </shape> </item> <item android:state_focused="true" > <shape> <gradient android:endColor="#8dc73f" android:centerColor="#d4d4d4" android:startColor="#d4d4d4" android:centerX="0.5" android:centerY="0.5" android:angle="270" /> <stroke android:width="1dp" color="#8dc73f" /> <corners android:radius="6dp" /> <padding android:left="10dp" android:top="10dp" android:right="10dp" android:bottom="10dp" /> </shape> </item> <item> <shape> <gradient android:endColor="#d4d4d4" android:centerColor="#d4d4d4" android:startColor="#d4d4d4" android:angle="270" /> <stroke android:width="1dp" color="#00ff00" /> <corners android:radius="7dp" /> </shape> </item> </selector> ``` which works fine but the problem is that on the focused state I would like to apply the effect round of the EditText and note inside, like the default android effect is applied. Is this possible and how? I haven't found a solution, the above code only applies the effect inside the EditText.
