没有默认的API来设置微调提示。为了添加它，我们需要一个小的解决方案，而不是安全反射实现

List<Object> objects = new ArrayList<Object>();
objects.add(firstItem);
objects.add(secondItem);
// add hint as last item
objects.add(hint);

HintAdapter adapter = new HintAdapter(context, objects, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);

Spinner spinnerFilmType = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);

// show hint
spinner.setSelection(adapter.getCount());

适配器来源:

public class HintAdapter
        extends ArrayAdapter<Objects> {

    public HintAdapter(Context theContext, List<Object> objects) {
        super(theContext, android.R.id.text1, android.R.id.text1, objects);
    }

    public HintAdapter(Context theContext, List<Object> objects, int theLayoutResId) {
        super(theContext, theLayoutResId, android.R.id.text1, objects);
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        // don't display last item. It is used as hint.
        int count = super.getCount();
        return count > 0 ? count - 1 : count;
    }
}

原始来源

这里有很多答案，但我很惊讶没有人提出一个简单的解决方案:在旋转器的顶部放置一个TextView。在TextView上设置一个点击监听器，它隐藏了显示Spinner的TextView，并调用spiner . performclick()。

对此，我找到了很多好的解决方案。大多数是通过在适配器的末尾添加一个项来工作的，并且不在下拉列表中显示最后一个项。 对我来说最大的问题是旋转器下拉列表将从列表的底部开始。所以用户看到的最后一个项目，而不是第一个项目(在情况下有许多项目显示)，触摸转轮后，第一次。

所以我把提示项放在列表的开头。并在下拉列表中隐藏第一项。

private void loadSpinner(){

    HintArrayAdapter hintAdapter = new HintArrayAdapter<String>(context, 0);

    hintAdapter.add("Hint to be displayed");
    hintAdapter.add("Item 1");
    hintAdapter.add("Item 2");
            .
            .
    hintAdapter.add("Item 30");

    spinner1.setAdapter(hintAdapter);

    //spinner1.setSelection(0); //display hint. Actually you can ignore it, because the default is already 0
    //spinner1.setSelection(0, false); //use this if don't want to onItemClick called for the hint

    spinner1.setOnItemSelectedListener(yourListener);
}

private class HintArrayAdapter<T> extends ArrayAdapter<T> {

    Context mContext;

    public HintArrayAdapter(Context context, int resource) {
        super(context, resource);
        this.mContext = context
    }

    @Override 
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View view = inflater.inflate(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, parent, false);
        TextView texview = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);

        if(position == 0) {
            texview.setText("");
            texview.setHint(getItem(position).toString()); //"Hint to be displayed"
        } else {
            texview.setText(getItem(position).toString());
        }

        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View view;

        if(position == 0){
            view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.spinner_hint_list_item_layout, parent, false); // Hide first row
        } else {
            view = inflater.inflate(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item, parent, false);
            TextView texview = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
            texview.setText(getItem(position).toString());
        } 

        return view;
    }
}

在@Override getDropDownView()中设置下面的布局，当position为0时，隐藏第一个提示行。

R.layout.spinner_hint_list_item_layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

</LinearLayout>

首先，您可能对Spinner类的prompt属性感兴趣。如下图所示，“Choose a Planet”是可以用android在XML中设置的提示符:prompt=""。

我建议子类化Spinner，在这里您可以在内部维护两个适配器。一个适配器有“选择一个”选项，另一个真正的适配器(有实际的选项)，然后使用OnClickListener在选项对话框显示之前切换适配器。然而，在尝试实现这个想法后，我得出的结论是，你不能接收小部件本身的OnClick事件。

您可以将旋转器包装在不同的视图中，拦截视图上的单击，然后告诉CustomSpinner切换适配器，但这似乎是一种糟糕的hack。

你真的需要显示“选择一”吗?

When extending SpinnerAdapter, you override two View-producing methods, getView(int, View, ViewGroup) and getDropDownView(int, View, ViewGroup). The first one supplies the View inserted into the Spinner itself; the second supplies the View in the drop-down list (as the name suggests). You can override the getView(...) so that, until an item has been selected, it displays a TextView containing a prompt; then, when you detect an item has been selected, you change it to display a TextView corresponding to that.

public class PromptingAdapter extends SpinnerAdapter {

    //... various code ...

    private boolean selectionmade = false;

    //call this method from the OnItemSelectedListener for your Spinner
    public setSelectionState(boolean b) {
        selectionmade = b;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View recycle, ViewGroup container) {
        if(selectionmade) {
            //your existing code to supply a View for the Spinner
            //you could even put "return getDropDownView(position, recycle, container);"
        }
        else {
            View output;
            if(recycle instanceof TextView) {
                 output = recycle;
            }
            else {
                 output = new TextView();
                 //and layout stuff
            }
            output.setText(R.string.please_select_one);
            //put a string "please_select_one" in res/values/strings.xml
            return output;
        }
    }

//...
}

似乎是一个平庸的解决方案，但我通常把简单的TextView在纺纱器的前面。整个Xml是这样的。(嘿，伙计们，别朝我开枪，我知道你们有些人不喜欢这种婚姻):

<FrameLayout
    android:id="@+id/selectTypesLinear"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <Spinner
        android:id="@+id/spinnerExercises"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:entries="@array/exercise_spinner_entries"
        android:prompt="@string/exercise_spinner_prompt"
     />                         
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/spinnerSelectText"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:text="Hey! Select this guy!"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:background="#FF000000" />


</FrameLayout>

然后我隐藏TextView时，一个项目被选中。显然，TextView的背景颜色应该与旋转器相同。适用于Android 4.0。不知道旧版本。

是的。因为Spinner在开始时调用setOnItemSelectedListener，隐藏textview可能有点棘手，但可以这样做:

    Boolean controlTouched;

    exerciseSpinner.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {


        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            controlTouched = true; // I touched it but but not yet selected an Item.
            return false;
        }

    });
    exerciseSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1,
                int arg2, long arg3) {
            if (controlTouched) { // Are you sure that I touched it with my fingers and not someone else  ?
                spinnerSelText.setVisibility(View.GONE);
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
        }

    });
