I use HoloEverywhere in my project. And I use AutoCompleteTextView in the code.

I want to change the color of border in AutoCompleteTextView from blue to green. But I have not idea.

So, I explore for help.

@larrymeng AutoCompleteTextView is extended EditText, so all ways for styling basic EditText applicable for ACTV too. You can colorize default blue background and apply new background for widget via styles or layout.

Thanks Prototik. I have tried to do that. But there will exists 4 sided border in AutoCompleteTextView.

How to Achieve this effect: 1) only one bottom border exists. 2) change the color of border.

Thanks.
