I've built a widget that uses a LinearLayout and I've put two TextViews in the layout.
The gravity of the layout is "top".
The problem is that I get a space between the two TextViews and I can't get rid of it.
CODE:....................
As you can see I tried putting padding 0 and verticalSpacing 0 but I still get a space between them.

How do I reduce the spacing between the elements in a linear layout? I tried to set the padding to 0 as well as the vertical spacing but that didnt seem to help. I want the textview and the imageview to be flush together with no space between them. The following is my XML layout file but I dont acheive what I want with it. code...
View 3 Replies View RelatedIf I have 2 LinearLayouts split %50/%50 everything is fine. Weights are 1 and 1. As soon as I add a TextView inside the top LinearLayout, it stretches that layout. I use "wrap_content" as the documentation says I should when it comes to weights. As you can see the red and green should be split evenly and text on grey background should be inside red box.
Here is the code:..............
Now if I switch to "fill parent" as follows it actually works but it creates another problem. Here is the code (so far so good):
So looking at above we were forced to use "fill_parent" and we would think like we fixed the problem but here is the problem if we are using "fill_parent" (I took out the textview just to show the problem, textview doesnt make the problem go away anyways):
As you can see I assign the weights 3 (top red) and 2 (bottom green) but what actually happens is they get flipped: The red becomes 2 and bottom becomes 3. Just measure the pixels too see.
Here are the results of the 3 codes: http://imgur.com/iVt8g.jpg
I have a RelativeLayout that has two LinearLayouts in it. One is a bunch of TextViews and EditTexts that make up a form and the other is a ButtonBar that submits the form.
anyways, everything looks great in portrait, but when i switch to landscape mode the bottom TextView/EditText element is being hidden by the buttonbar.
screenshot to show the problem. as you can see some of the "email" textview and all of the email edit text are being hidden by button bar.

If l2 is dont added to l1 than it works.
At the moment I'm using the following layout.

Module one and two get added in code. Now I'd like to have a 10px spacing between the two modules. I have tried to set "layout_topMargin" to the parent LinearLayout but it doesn't work. In addition I have tried to set this parameter to the LinearLayout modules. But well it doesn't work. It always looks like this:

Do I really have to put a dummy (spacer) view between the two LinearLayouts or is there another possibility?
I have a Relative Layout.
Which has 2 buttons, side by side and it is right-aligned.
So this is my layout xml file. My question is there are no spacing between the right-most button and the right border of the RelativeLayout and between the 2 buttons. How can I add that? I play with android:paddingRight, but nothing helps. code...
Is there an easy way to add padding between the checkbox in a CheckBox control, and the associated text?
I cannot just add leading spaces, because my label is multi-line.
As-is, the text is way too close to the checkbox:
I'd like to add extra spacing on the sides and between tabs on the tab widget, but padding and margins dont seem to make any difference. I also played with setting the divider, tab strip left and right drawables, which didn't seem to make any difference either.
Trying to make the tabs look like this:
I am very impressed with Swype and just amazed that it is able to correctly guess what I am trying to type most of the time. But I have a question. What is the correct way to add a period? It seems that when i first started using it, if I used a period it would automatically add a space and capitalize the next word. But it doesn't do that now. I get no space or capitalization and have to add the space manually.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've used an Alert Dialog builder to display 6 items my user can choose from. Unfortunately for just a few pixels missing, it displays only half of the last item and adds a scrollbar. Beside, centering of the dialog is awkward, there is a 20px padding at the top but only 2px at the bottom. I was wondering if there is a way to reduce font size or vertical spacing in the Alert Dialog builder programatically.

i have been reading a heap of old posts trying to get up to speed on Android so if a few of my posts seem vague, please excuse them as android is still very new to me. Love the site and so far I have found a heap of good info.
I have done a search on this site and a few others in the hope of finding out a problem I have with SWYPE on my DHD.
I have auto spacing selected but when typing a sms using SWYPE, no spaces are automatically placed in between words. However when I use the SWYPE keyboard for entering in a calendar entry, spaces are automatically defaulted between words.
The version i am using is 2.4.44.10912 (has English language) and there appears to be a red circle on the space button for the message SWYPE keyboard but the red circle is not present on keyboard when I am entering in a calendar item.
I have uninstalled SWYPE and re-installed, but the issue is still present. Any ideas?
I just moved to ICS, and I'm doing some modding in it.
There's one thing I don't like and that is the spacing/padding on the left and right side in some (most) menus.
how to remove this?
Let me illustrate with a mockup:
The left is how it is, and the right is how I'd like it.
It is ofcourse also very noticeable in the Settings menu:
I have noticed this problem for quite some time with android. When I am writing a message for example : The price is $350 android automatically makes the sentence format as: The price is$ 350.... then I have to go back and space the $ sign away from the previous letter and then delete the space between the $ sign and the following number. How can I fix this as this is a HUGE annoyance?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI create a LinearLayout (orientation horizontal) which contains some TextView. The LinearLayout has a size of 1200px. When user move on, the screen, I would like to do like the Launcher application. I tried to use startScroll function. even if I set a distance, the layout doesn't move alone. Only distance did by user is slided. Does startScroll move alone all content? If yes, why my code doesn't work?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to get the height of a linearlayout. I found more information in this answer
View.getWidth()/View.getHeight() won't give you a meaningful answer until the view has been measured.
How will I know that view has been measured? Is there some event for it?
Solution for me is to get layout's height in overriden onWindowFocusChanged()

I recently struggled with an apparently simple Android layout: I wanted a WebView above a Button. It worked fine with the following parameters:
WebView:
Height: wrap-content
Weight: unset (by the way, what is the default?)
Button:
Height: wrap-content
Weight: unset
However if the web page became too big it spilled out over the button. I tried various combinations of weights and heights, and all except one either completely hide the button, or partially cover it...............
