I'm trying (in vain) to add margins to my ListView items. I have tried adding margin values to my RelativeLayout below but no matter what I do all I seem to get is a 1px line between each item.

What I really would like is to have rounded corners on each item, a 1px black border and a 3-5px margin left, top, and right but right now I'll settle for just a margin around each item :-)

How do I achieve my goals? Just the margin for now... ;-)

Here's what I have:

**UPDATE:** I have updated the xml below removing main layout and fragment layout. I have also updated the ListView item layout to what I have now which is closer to what I want but still not perfect. Screenshot added as well

listview item layout xml

```

            android:gravity="right"
            android:src="@drawable/sofabold_launcher" />
    </LinearLayout>

</RelativeLayout>

</RelativeLayout>

```

This gives me the following where you'll notice a very small line to the right and left for each item. That I would also like to get rid of.
