Android - Make AlertDIalog buttons a uniform size -

i have alert dialog positive , negative button added programatically. in dialog layout there 2 buttons, above alertdialog's native buttons.

when these 2 right next each other, realized in dialog, native positive/negative/neutral buttons not equally weighted. content of text determines horizontal weight, rather each taking 50% (or 33% if 3 buttons) of dialog. in case, negative button's text longer positive button's text, looks image posted above.

i can't find way fix this, have idea?

thanks!

figured out solution... don't know why didn't think of before.

i following:

mrateconcertdialog.setonshowlistener(new onshowlistener() {      @override     public void onshow(dialoginterface d) {         button posbutton = mrateconcertdialog.getbutton(dialoginterface.button_positive);         button negbutton = mrateconcertdialog.getbutton(dialoginterface.button_negative);          layoutparams posparams = (layoutparams) posbutton.getlayoutparams();         posparams.weight = 1;         posparams.width = layoutparams.match_parent;          layoutparams negparams = (layoutparams) negbutton.getlayoutparams();         negparams.weight = 1;         negparams.width = layoutparams.match_parent;          posbutton.setlayoutparams(posparams);         negbutton.setlayoutparams(negparams);     } }); 

basically, have manipulate size of buttons after dialog shown. create onshowlistener , can set weights , widths way. comments, hope can in future.
