Change icons of checked and unchecked for Checkbox for Android

Question

Instead of having a check mark for the icon, I want a custom star (I have checked and unchecked icons). Can this be done through a property? Or must I declare a custom widge

Answer 1

One alternative would be to use a drawable/textview instead of a checkbox and manipulate it accordingly. I have used this method to have my own checked and unchecked images for a task application.
