title: Is it possible to set a drawable as background without distortion?
body: <p>I am having a vertical LinearLayout with many TextViews in there. Now I want to have a check-icon in front of all of them, which can be checked or unchecked.</p>
  
  <pre><code>[x] test1
  [ ] test2
  [x] test2
  [ ] test4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a way to do that without any additional views? In html you would set the background image for the TextViews, but when I do that in android, the background graphic gets distorted.</p>
