android gridview row dividers / separators

Question

Is there a way to show (horizontal) dividers between rows in a gridview?

I tried putting a small divider-image below every grid item, but this is not a solution, bec

Just wanted to share how I implemented this using the link accepted by OP. For my case I also needed to control the length of the separators, so I couldn't get around subclassing GridView.

public class HorizontalSeparatorGridView extends GridView {

    // Additional methods 

    @Override
    protected void dispatchDraw(Canvas canvas) {

        final int count = getChildCount();
        for(int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
            View child = getChildAt(i);
            int bottom = child.getBottom();
            int left = child.getLeft();
            int right = child.getRight();

            Paint paint = new Paint();
            paint.setColor(0xffececec);

            paint.setStrokeWidth(Math.round(0.5 * density));

            int offset = // Some offset

            canvas.drawLine(left + offset, bottom, right - offset, bottom, paint);
        }


        super.dispatchDraw(canvas);
    }

I subclassed dispatchDraw as opposed to onDraw just to be safe but I don't think it would matter in this case.
