Probably I don't understand the layout properties of TableLayout yet. It doesn't seem to be possible to achieve such a flexible table like in HTML, because there are no cells. My target is it to achieve such a layout:

How can I do that? I thought about using a GridView but this doesn't seem to be useful in XML.
My efforts look like this....

I'm developing an Android application.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="200px"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/gameTitle"..............
I want to put playGame button in the left side of the center, and noPlayGame button in the right side of the center. Now, both appear aligned to the left of the TableRow. How can I do this?
I have a series of buttons on a main menu. Instead of the standard side by side, or one on top of the other, I'd like them to be aligned around a semi-circle. Since I can't drag and drop the buttons to the place I'd like to in the designer, I was wondering the best way to do this? Can I do it in the XML, or would it be best to do it programatically?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have four buttons arranged in a 2x2 TableLayout. These buttons each have an image on the left and some text. The buttons display fine in the emulator for 1.5, and for 2.2, but when testing with 1.6 the two buttons in the righthand column are cropped so that they are missing their righthand edge (the padding to the right of the text is missing and the button ends abruptly with squared off corners rather than rounded ones). There is plenty of room for the TableLayout to expand to accommodate the full width of the buttons. This happens for all screen sizes.
The layout looks like this and itself appears within a RelativeLayout:
CODE:...............
The buttons are styled as follows:
CODE:.................
I'm assuming this is a 1.6-specific bug. Has anybody else come across this problem? Any suggestions for work-arounds?
I've had the opportunity to try it with Android 2.1 (both on the emulator and a device), and the problem happens there too. So 1.5 good, 1.6 bad, 2.1 bad, 2.2 good.
I have a table having 2 rows each row having 3 buttons.How can I make the buttons to fill the space equally. In HTML I would give them 33% width.Also do you know any way I can create a view having 4 image buttons in a row as a grid layout, similar to the launcher.

Before asking what I have tried so far, I don't even know where to start. I googled but the only answer I could find was about AbsoluteLayout.
I have a two column TableLayout as the only child of a scroll view. The first column contains TextViews ('labels') and the second column contains EditText/Spinner/DateWidget etc ('values').
Even though I have have specified android:layout_width="fill_parent" for TableLayout, TableRow & all widgets (in 'values' column).
The screen looks perfect when the activity is created. However, when one types a really long value in the EditText, the 'values' column goes beyond the visible screen area.
I am not able to find out the perfect layout(viewgroup) to place four buttons as shown in the attached image. Basically, i want to place four buttons near the top/left/bottom/right edge of the screen. AbsoluteLayout helped, but it is deprecated (It is also better to avoid AbsoluteLayout as it is not very flexible for orientation changes)

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat this looks like is on the left and what I want it to look like is on the right.The obvious answer is to set the TextView to fill_parent on height but this causes no room to be left for the button or entry field. Essentially the issue is that I want the submit button and the text entry to be a fixed height at the bottom and the text view to fill the rest of the space, similarly in the horizontal Linear layout I want the submit button to wrap its content and for the text entry to fill the rest of the space.If the first item in a Linear Layout is told to fill_parent it does exactly that, leaving no room for other items, how do I get an item which is first in a linear layout to fill all space apart from the minimum required by the rest of the items in the layout?

As i am facing limitation of layout depth in my application, i am replacing some LinearLayout with RelativeLayout. However i am stopped by a supposely very simple issue (but apparantly without clean solution regarding that http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1499555/android-layout-centering-i..., nor in the ApiDemos sample where RelativeLayout are too simple):
How can i align vertically 3 items (in a simple way!) which are on a horizontal line with RelativeLayout without?
does not seem to have any effect at all.
Here is the xml; in this example i would like an icon at left (fixed width), a text label in the middle (fixed width) and an edit text on the right (remaining space). the problem is that the TextView seems to ignore the parameter android:layout_gravity="center_vertical", and seems to be top aligned with parent. code...
Of course i can use marginTop/Bottom and alignTop/Bottom on each single item but that's not very clean.
Can someone please provide me a ListView row layout that will show text on the left (the full width of the screen) and just leave one right aligned column for a count on the right? Everything I try has the text overwrite the count column...

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using Google Navi to take me somewhere I have never been before. It tells me to get on the freeway and then it says "Destination On My Right." I finally figure out where the place is after calling them. But that was weird.
I then get home and look up directions on Google Maps. It literally says:
7.Take the ramp on the left onto US-59 N
Destination will be on the right
I am using Google Maps on my PC to create a customized route to a destination. When I do a Google Directions search it charts out a route that I do not want to take.
So I use the drag and drop method to change the route on the map and save it to My Maps. When I log back into Google My Maps on my PC, it shows me the modified route and the correct turn by turn directions using the new route. So far so good.
But when I load Google Maps on my Droid and show the layer I just created which is the new route to my destination. It shows me the new route traced on the map, but does not give me the correct turn by turn directions. Instead it always forces me to search for and load the "default" directions that Google found in the first place that I do not want to use. It does this with Google Navigation as well.
Why doesn't it use MY directions that I just created on Google Maps on my PC ?
How can I create a new route to a destinatioin and save it so I can get turn by turn directions using that new route that I have chosen?
In my application I want to show route between two points and display points (something like POI's from my own source) the user will be riding through.
How can I get the directions (polyline) from GoogleMaps? Application will not provide any navigation so I suppose that there are no "leagal obstacles" for doing this (correct me please if I'm wrong).
Is there anyway to get directions of two geopoints? and draw an overlay on the map?I can't seem to find the documentations about this. Can anyone help?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor a better handling and overview in expandableLists I would like to show only the childelements of the last selected group - the previously expanded group should be automaticly collapsed. The groupheader of the expanded group should be als aligned to the top of the screen to show the user that he's in the right group and that he can start to read the group childs from the beginning.
This worked well with the following code until now (android 1.5 - 2.1) but with android 2.2 the selection seems to work after the collapse method call:
CODE:..............
If a group is selected by touch and expanded it should collapse the previously expanded group (if one exists). To align the groupheader to the top of the screen the method "setSelectedGroup(groupPosition)" is called.
Without collapsing a group (e.g. if you close the group manually before you open another) the selection is done correctly, otherwise the list entries of the expanded group are shown somewhere in the middle and not at the top as expected. Has someone a solution or workaround for this issue? The new API method smoothScrollToPosition (API level 8) is also not working in this case.
I mentioned this issue also here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9177

I previously asked a question that I still have not been able to solve:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3126347/android-relativelayout-how-to-alignparentbottom-when-wrapped-in-a-scrollview
What I am trying to do is align a view to the bottom of the screen, using either a RelativeLayout or LinearLayout, and then wrap that layout in a scrollview to permit scrolling when necessary (for changes to landscape orientation or on small screen devices).
To date, what I find is that anything aligned to parent bottom works great as long at the bottom is visible...but if the bottom is below the scroll, the view that is aligned parent bottom jumps up to the top.
This seems like a very common design for ads that appear on the bottom, so I would think that this is possible. Is it?
