android - How to create a notification similar to Play Music app from Google

Question

I'm trying to create a notification that is very similar to what the "Play Music" app from Google uses.

Few questions that hopefully someone can answer.

1. Is this notification done with custom RemoteViews?
2. Is the X for closing the widget part of the NotificationCompat.Builder APIs? or simply part of a custom RemoteView?
3. If it is all custom views how can I set a custom RemoteView for minimized and maximized states?

Answer 1

Yes, all of that is done with custom RemoteViews. You'll see in the docs for Notification, there's a field for bigContentView along with contentView.
