title: How to create a completely custom Dialogue/Popup in Android (change overlay colour and dialogue window layout)
body: <p>I would like to completely re-skin the default dialogue component in Android.  Specifically I would like to do this:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>Change the semi-transparent overlay background from the default black to a semi-transparent white.</p></li>
  <li><p>Change the Dialogue window by
  removing the default windowed frame border,
  and replacing it with a layout
  defined in XML (it's just going to be
  a borderless graphic with floating
  buttons.  no actual frame.)</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I have seen tutorials about creating a custom layout for within the dialogue box (e.g. <a href="http://www.helloandroid.com/tutorials/how-display-custom-dialog-your-android-application" rel="noreferrer">http://www.helloandroid.com/tutorials/how-display-custom-dialog-your-android-application</a>), but I haven't seen anything regarding changing the colour of the overlay and/or completely customizing the dialogue window that pops up and turning it more into an overlay with no "window".</p>
