Thread: Could someone help me with the Seekbar control, I'm getting errors..

Hi All,
I have followed a tutorial on using graphics for the slider part of the seekbar, I can change the color using hex values and that works fine. But since I am having issues creating a hex code to get the green to blend into red, so I found a tutorial on using graphics with drawpatch9 and clips.
Here is my logcat..

in short the logcat has told me that it can't parse the xml file and something about it not being able to inflate the seekbar widget....any idea's on whats going wrong..
I had revised the code to reflect my apps needs. The code is attached because i'm having issues posting the code here.

Thanks
