Spinner dropdown height to match parent

Question

Is it possible to adjust height of Spinner dropdown to fill the entire screen. Right now i have 3 items that i dynamically add into the spinner adapter but these only cover half of the screen. What i have right now is something like this:

What i want is something like this:

I could add empty items but that won't solve the problem for different screen sizes

I tried to implement a style on the spinner but it didn't work

<style name="MyCustomSpinner" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Spinner.DropDown">
    <item name="android:dropDownHeight">match_parent</item>
</style>

UPDATE

I have a view between action bar and spinner so i cannot use layout_weight=1 for my spinner

Answer 1

try using this with your adapter.

adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);

Answer 2

The only way to achieve this is by writing your own view that works like a spinner.
