Title Body

There are many tutorials out there and questions on SO that implement custom title bars. However, in my custom title bar I have a custom gradient for the background and I would like to know how to set it dynamically in my code. Here is where my custom title bar gets called: requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE); setContentView(R.layout.foo_layout); getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.custom_title_bar); And this is my custom_title_bar : <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@layout/custom_title_bar_background_colors"> <ImageView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/title_bar_logo" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:paddingTop="0dip"/> </LinearLayout> As you can see, the background on the linear layout is defined by this guy: <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <gradient android:startColor="#616261" android:endColor="#131313" android:angle="270" /> <corners android:radius="0dp" /> </shape> What I would like to do is set those gradient colors dynamically in my code. I do not want to hard code them in my XML file like they currently are. I am open to all ideas if you have a better way of setting a background gradient. Thank you in advance!!
