Android orientation change causes ImageView to dissapear
- by Jarrod Smith
Below is my layout for the row template in a SimpleCursorAdapter.
The ImageView with id next_arrow disappears on orientation change. If I replace @drawable/arrow with @drawable/icon (copy of the standard sym_def_app_icon) it works fine.
I thought it might be somehow related to the icons being of different dimensions, but I resized @drawable/icon to be the exact same dimensions as the arrow and it still worked fine while the arrow didn't.
