Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm trying to write an app for my
Samsung Vibrant (running android 2.1). I used the example "Form
Stuff" app available as tutorial on the android developers
website. I basically added a background picture to the
application. the background picture has some text on it towards
the top. I want to display a list of elements (to be selectable
by teh user) but I want this list to start from a certain
position on the screen (say for example - start from the middle
of the screen). tried reading the listview under dev resource
and searched the forums but I could not find a way to do this.
Could anyone please help me out? or if this is not possible,
then suggest me something else which i can place at a certain
position on the screen.  share|improve this question  2 Answers
