# Nice Spinner [![](https://jitpack.io/v/arcadefire/nice-spinner.svg)](https://jitpack.io/#arcadefire/nice-spinner) [![Android Arsenal](https://img.shields.io/badge/Android%20Arsenal-Nice%20Spinner-blue.svg?style=flat)](https://android-arsenal.com/details/1/2225)

NiceSpinner is a re-implementation of the default Android's spinner, with a nice arrow animation and a different way to display its content.

It follows the material design guidelines, and it is compatible starting from Api 14.

### Usage

The usage is pretty straightforward. Add the tag into the XML layout:
```xml

```
* Note: change `layout_width` to at least the width of the largest item on the list to prevent resizing

Then use this snippet to populate it with contents:
```java
NiceSpinner niceSpinner = (NiceSpinner) findViewById(R.id.nice_spinner);
List dataset = new LinkedList<>(Arrays.asList("One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five"));
niceSpinner.attachDataSource(dataset);
```

#### Listeners
For listening to the item selection actions, you can just use the following snippet:
```java
spinner.setOnSpinnerItemSelectedListener(new OnSpinnerItemSelectedListener() {
@Override
public void onItemSelected(NiceSpinner parent, View view, int position, long id) {
// This example uses String, but your type can be any
String item = parent.getItemAtPosition(position);
...
}
});
```

#### Attributes
You can add attributes to customize the view. Available attributes:

| name | type | info |
|------------------------ |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| arrowTint | color | sets the color on the drop-down arrow |
| hideArrow | boolean | set whether show or hide the drop-down arrow |
| arrowDrawable | reference | set the drawable of the drop-down arrow |
| textTint | color | set the text color |
| dropDownListPaddingBottom | dimension | set the bottom padding of the drop-down list |
| backgroundSelector | integer | set the background selector for the drop-down list rows |
| popupTextAlignment | enum | set the horizontal alignment of the default popup text |
| entries | reference | set the data source from an array of strings |
