Change color of progress bar

[thedesolatesoul]

Is it possible to change the color of a progressbar?
The Color property only changes the views background color?
Thanks!

Nope. I already asked this sometime ago. It's a limitation of Android.

Actually Android allows you to change the color by providing a special Drawable object that knows how to draw the progress. This may be added in the future.

Actually, you could script your own customizable progress bar

Possible to script one together, dont know how efficient it would be though!
Is it possible to create your own views? Like ocx controls?

Anyways, can I use an xml file to change the color as suggested here:How to change progress bar's progress color in Android - Stack Overflow

Havent tried this yet though.

You can create a custom progress bar by drawing on a panel. There shouldn't be any performance issues.

You cannot declare layouts with XML.
