ExpandableListView - group indication is stretch to fit the text size

Question

I have group indication with small icon, and i use groupIndicator to call the selector to draw it but I see android by default stretch that icon to fits the text size

I think that the easiest thing to do in this case is include the indicator inside your row group view (as an imageView) and change its selected state based on whether the group is expanded. You'll want to make sure that your ImageView uses a selector with selected state drawables.

Something like this:

    @Override
    public View getGroupView(int groupPosition, boolean isExpanded, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
    {
        View row;

        if (convertView != null)
        {
            row = convertView;
        }
        else
        {
            row = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.group_row, null));
        }


        final ImageView indicator = (ImageView)row.findViewById(R.id.indicator);
        indicator.setSelected(isExpanded);
        return row;
    }
