title: Reduce Check box size in android?
body: <p>i have tried out the suggestions given but unable to reduce the size...on reduction of size in graphical layout,the border lines of the checkbox disappear...iam new to android...any help will be appreciated </p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
  
  <p>here is code...</p>
  
  <pre><code>   &lt;LinearLayout
  
   xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="match_parent"
     android:background="#F3CAE5"
     android:gravity="center_vertical"
     android:orientation="horizontal"
     android:padding="8dp" &gt;
  
  &lt;CheckBox
      android:id="@+id/cb"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       /&gt;
  
  &lt;TextView
      android:id="@+id/txt_id"
      android:layout_width="0dp"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_weight="1"
      android:textColor="#000" /&gt;
  
  
  
  
  
  &lt;TextView
      android:id="@+id/txt_fName"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_weight="1"
      android:textColor="#000" /&gt;
  
  
  
  
  
    &lt;/LinearLayout&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>height and width change removes the border lines...check box appears in a list view that is populated dynamically...</p>
  
  <p>the below code works for changing the checkbox image but now iam unable to check the box ie the tick mark does not appear on checking the box???</p>
