I have a ListView with a horizontal LinearLayout above. Both are inside of a vertical LinearLayout, which has a white background.

The ListView has fading edges: the list text at the top and bottom edge of the list area fades into the white background - to indicate that the container can be scrolled.

Is it possible to have these fading edges fade to a different color?

The only way I know is to set "android:cacheColorHint" to the desired color - but then the whole list turns into this color, when scrolling through it!

But I only want to change the color of the fading edges of the ListView.

Code: Select all
