how can I find the layout parameters of the toast widget?

Question

I like the layout of the toast widget very much, that means rounded corners, transparency, light grey border. Is there any way to see the layout parameters of such android standard widgets like the toast?

I would like do define a TextView with the same layout parameters.

The layout can be found under {SDKBASEDIR}/platforms/{RELEASE}/res/layout/transient_notification.xml

e.g. for 2.1:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:background="@drawable/toast_frame">
<TextView
    android:id="@android:id/message"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.Small"
    android:textColor="@color/bright_foreground_dark"
    android:shadowColor="#BB000000"
    android:shadowRadius="2.75"
    />

</LinearLayout>

The drawable toast_frame.9.png can be found under {SDKBASEDIR}/platforms/{RELEASE}/res/drawable{-RESOLUTION}
