Android RelativeLayout Background Color -

for long time reading posts stackoverflow because helpful , google seems think also.

since yesterday have problem row in listview in android. want show image , area between image , bottom of element should filled grey color.

<relativelayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:orientation="vertical" >       <relativelayout         android:id="@+id/conversationsbadgelayout"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="match_parent"         android:background="#c0c0c0"         android:orientation="vertical" >          <quickcontactbadge             android:id="@+id/conversationsbadge"             android:layout_width="60dp"             android:layout_height="60dp"             android:layout_alignparentleft="true"             android:layout_alignparenttop="true" />     </relativelayout>      <!--     ...     linearlayout textviews, shouldn't interesting     ...     -->  </relativelayout> 

my problem ist seems inner layout wraps content doesn't fill_parent. when set example 100dp works not want.

it nice if me that. tried workarround using linearlayouts , textviews nothing worked.

you can set background color listview itself, in have background want.

btw, recommend using linearlayout instead of relativelayout in case.
