AlertDialog's items not displayed

I create an AlertDialog with an AlertDialog.Builder and set some items with setItems(). The dialog is shown but I cannot see any of the items. All I see is the message.

final CharSequence[] items = {"Red", "Green", "Blue"};

AlertDialog.Builder dialogBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(activity);
dialogBuilder.setMessage("Pick a color");
dialogBuilder.setItems(items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {        
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
        // Do anything you want here
    }    
});

dialogBuilder.create().show();

If I set the PositiveButton, I can see that button just fine. I also tried setting MultiChoiceItems and SingleChoiceItems but neither of these work either.

Solution 1:

Use setTitle instead of setMessage which sets message body and overrides the items list.

Solution 2:

Why don't you go for setTitle instead of the setMessage? Try with setTitle("Pick a color").

I hope it will help you.
