title: How to change edit text background color with LinearLayout?
body: <p>I want to change the LinearLayout background color and I want to reflect the changes to the editText, but the problem is I will get two different colors. I know how to to change the background of editText, but I want to change the LinearLayout and the editText background color changes with it. When I change the layout background, the editText always gets a lighter color which is not what I want. Look at the image:</p>
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zF7To.png" alt="editText showing lighter yellow background color that the encompassing LinearLayout" /></p>
  <p>The background of delete button and checkbox changes with the layout background but not the editText. As I said I don't want to set the background of editText on its own. May be there is a way to do with styles but it's not clear for me.</p>
