Android Gridview Layout

Question

How to place lines between cells in a gridview. So that it doesn’t look like the items are floating. Example as columns and rows of an excel and if it is possible to change the color of some cell in a specific way.

Answer 1

The way I do this is very simple, I fill the background of Gridview with one color, the items with another color and add the spacing between items, and then you have a grid with limits, like table. You can then combine these options to create beautiful effects.

Code example SOEN:

GridView gv = findViewById(R.id.my_grid_view);
gv.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
gv.setVerticalSpacing(1);
gv.setHorizontalSpacing(1);
