title: Creating a fullscreen custom Toast
body: <p>I have recentrly tried a custom Toast following the tutorial:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html#CustomToastView" rel="noreferrer">http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html#CustomToastView</a></p>
  
  <p>With such a Layout:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
                android:id="@+id/toast_layout_root"
                android:orientation="horizontal"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                android:padding="8dp"
                android:background="#DAAA"
                &gt;
      &lt;ImageView android:src="@drawable/droid"
                 android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                 android:layout_marginRight="8dp"
                 /&gt;
      &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/text"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textColor="#FFF"
                /&gt;
  &lt;/LinearLayout&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it seems that the fill_parent in the root layout has no effect.</p>
  
  <p>Do you have an idea on how I can fix this in order to get fullscreen Toast?</p>
