Kind of reviving an old post here but the accepted answer is far from ideal. The correct way to do this is to set the Spinner to dropdown mode in your layout xml:

<Spinner 
    android:id="@+id/my_spinner"
    ...
    android:spinnerMode="dropdown"/>

The available options are "dialog" and "dropdown".

回答2:

Your application is running on old theme.

If you are using android 4.2 set android application theme (in the manifest file) to

 android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"

 android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar"

may be you are running in below than 4.0 , 4.0 will show you dropdown as your image

You can use popup like below:

           spinner=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.txt_Spinner);


        spinner.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                p = new Point();
                p.x = location[0]+(v.getHeight());
                p.y = location[1]+v.getHeight();

                if (p != null)
                    showPopup(statusActivity.this, p);

                System.out.println("show popup");
            }
        });




    // The method that displays the popup.
    private void showPopup(final Activity context, Point p) {
        int popupWidth = 300;
        int popupHeight = 500;

        // Inflate the popup_layout.xml
        LinearLayout viewGroup = (LinearLayout) context.findViewById(R.id.popup);
        LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater) context
        .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View layout = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.popup_layout, viewGroup);

        // Creating the PopupWindow
        popup = new PopupWindow(context);
        popup.setContentView(layout);
        popup.setWidth(popupWidth);
        popup.setHeight(popupHeight);
        popup.setFocusable(true);

        // Some offset to align the popup a bit to the right, and a bit down, relative to button's position.
        int OFFSET_X = 00;
        int OFFSET_Y = 00;

        // Clear the default translucent background
        popup.setBackgroundDrawable(new BitmapDrawable());

        // Displaying the popup at the specified location, + offsets.
        popup.showAtLocation(layout, Gravity.NO_GRAVITY, p.x + OFFSET_X, p.y + OFFSET_Y);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView2)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView3)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView4)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView5)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView6)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView7)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView8)).setClickable(true);
        ((TextView)layout.findViewById(R.id.textView9)).setClickable(true);

    }

For the GUI Use HoloEverywhere. https://github.com/Prototik/HoloEverywhere HoloEverywhere is the best way to go if you want Holo theme on older Android then 4.0 .

And for the dropdown use android:spinnerMode="dropdown" in the layout as Stephen Kidson mentioned.

回答6:

Its a AutocompleteTextView widget that you are suppose to use but you have tried with Spinner widget.

If my guess is right, Please refer the link. AutocompleteTextView

Cheers.
