Repeat drawable in imageview?

Is it possible to repeat a drawable in an ImageView? I manage to repeat my drawable as a divider in a ListView, but not as an ImageView. Here is my repeated image definition:

<bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:src="@drawable/xdividerrepeat" android:tileMode="repeat"/>

Thanks Markus

Solution

  • You could use a "dummy" view like a LinearLayout to accomplish this. Just create a LinearLayout with the size you need and set its background drawable to be your repeating bitmap.

    See Android Tile Bitmap.
