Question

how to reduce the size of listview width by using xml in android?

Answer 1

Presumably, you'd edit the android:layout_width parameter... is there something I'm missing?

For example this ListView is limited to being 200 dip wide:

<ListView android:id="@android:id/list" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="200dip" />
