Android Spinner - How to remove radio buttons?

Question

In Android 1.6, upon tapping a spinner (drop-down menu), radio buttons appear next to the spinner options. How do I remove those radio buttons so that just the option text remains?

Hi!
If you want to get rid of radio buttons on the spinner list you have to provide your own layout for row.
Take a look at the example below:

package com.ramps;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.SpinnerAdapter;

public class MySpinner extends Activity {
    //data that will be used as a spinner options
    private static String data[] = {"one", "two", "three"};

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        //main.xml file contains spinner
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
        //create your own adapter
        MySpinnerAdapter adapter = new MySpinnerAdapter(this,R.layout.custom_spinner_row,R.id.text, data );
        //set your custom adapter 
        spinner.setAdapter( adapter );
    }


    private class MySpinnerAdapter extends ArrayAdapter{

     public MySpinnerAdapter(Context context, int resource,
       int textViewResourceId, String[] objects) {
      super(context, resource, textViewResourceId, objects);   
     } 

    }
}

The custom layout for spinner row is just a simple LinearLayout with one TextView element which id is "text" (android:id="@+id/text")

This is just simple example. If you need more fancy layout than just TextView you would probably have to override getView() method of MySpinnerAdapter.
