Android Menu Item Dynamic Attributes












0















If I am creating menu items dynamically and adding them with menu.add, how do I set the background color of the entire cell not just the text (spanning only changes the background of the text. I need the entire cell background color changed - m is a custom Menu Object containing all of the info for a given menu item).



MenuItem menuItem = menu.add(0, m.getIndex().ordinal(), Menu.NONE, m.getMenuTitle());
View v = menuItem.getActionView();
v.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);
