How to make an app’s background image repeat

by

Ok, here’s what I’ve got in my app. It includes a hack to prevent ListViews from going black while scrolling.

drawable/app_background.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2706913/@drawable/actual_pattern_image"
        android:tileMode="repeat" />

values/styles.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

  <style name="app_theme" parent="android:Theme">
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/app_background</item>
    <item name="android:listViewStyle">@style/TransparentListView</item>
    <item name="android:expandableListViewStyle">@style/TransparentExpandableListView</item>
  </style>

  <style name="TransparentListView" parent="@android:style/Widget.ListView">
    <item name="android:cacheColorHint">@android:color/transparent</item>
  </style>

  <style name="TransparentExpandableListView" parent="@android:style/Widget.ExpandableListView">
    <item name="android:cacheColorHint">@android:color/transparent</item>
  </style>

</resources>

AndroidManifest.xml:

//
<application android:theme="@style/app_theme">
//
