Change height of view inside home screen widget

Question

I´m pretty new to widgets in Android and I´m struggling a little to find a way to resize views inside of the widget. I´m trying to create like a volume chart where I add imageviews to a linear layout. Is this even possible? Thanks

Answer 1

You can change the layout height dynamically to say, x by using

getLayoutParams().height= x;
requestLayout(); or invalidate();

This post I found can help you to get more input, to solve your problem.

I found a work around by setting the top padding to reduce the height. They always start at maximum height
