I have problems getting some of my views aligned in a relative layout that I use inside a row of my listview.
Here is a screenshot from the layout builder in Eclipse, this is what I think it should look like:
The next image is from the emulator. Now the TestTestTest View is at the top and covers the name and distance Textviews.
This is my layout:

Shouldnt align_parent_bottom put the view at the bottom of the cell in the list?
In my layout I have in the upper part three views in a horizontal linear layout. When I enter the activity, one of these views must be selected depending on the pressed button in the previous activity. The selection is made using an ImageView indicator that must be centered below the selected view. Could anyone tell me what is the best way to do this?

I am trying to layout 1 textview (upText) left aligned and 1 textview (downText) and an image view (image) both on the same line and right aligned.
How can I do that? I tried that, but both 'textview' and image view at left aligned.

I am using a GridView. Four items in a column. Each element is composed of the following layout:So each element is a small image with a bit of text below it. The layout works great on the first pass. However, if an item's text is long, it wraps to two lines. This works ok, until you scroll it in and out of view. By default, all the images in a row are top-aligned. When you scroll a row off-screen, then back on screen, you'll see that the row somehow gets bottom-aligned. It looks like:so the row gets bottom-aligned here. I'm not sure if this is a bug in GridView, or if there's some way to control the layout to always top-align rows. I've tried setting the gravity of the element layout to "top", no good. There also doesn't appear to be any setting unique to GridView to control this. Any ideas?

Right now, if you turn the phone (emulator) it flips the graphics and squeezes them. I want the game to start horizontally and stay that way regardless of how the user turns the phone.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having a Table layout which has 3 columns defined. But due to large Text in the second column, the content is going off the screen. So i was trying to place a horizontal Scrollbar. But was unable to do.

I am using a table layout in a screen. i need to have both horizontal and vertical scrolls. By default i am able to get vertical scroll in the view but horizontal scroll is not working. I am using android SDK 1.5 r3
Ihv already tried android:scrollbars = "horizontal". I hv read on some forums that in cupcake update horizontal scroll is possible in andorid.
I have played around a bit with the xml files for creating layouts and can't explain the behaviour of layout_weight when using it in a LinearLayout that has orientation="vertical"
When creating a layout that is horizontal everything follows the documentation, that a child would get more space if it's has the highest value.
But the following code for vertical orientation, give more space to the item with lowest weight.
CODE:..........
And the question is: Is this a bug or just a feature that maybe need more documentation?
Is there a property to set for Android's LinearLayout that will enable it to properly wrap child controls? Meaning - I have changeable number of children and would like to layout them horizontally like:
Example: Control1, Control2, Control3, ...
I do that by setting:
ll.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
foreach (Child c in children) ll.addView(c);
However, if I have large number of children, last one gets cuts off, instead of going to next line.
Is there a way to get all the children views of a layout, from the Java code so that I can loop through them and set an attribute? Specifically, I'd like to set the "layout_width" based on the screen size. Since this "layout_width" would be the same for all the views, I'd prefer to loop through instead of calling each individual View separately by their id. The following is my main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/myRow1" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1"> <TextView android:text="1" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>
<TextView android:text="2" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>
<TextView android:text="3" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>
<TextView android:text="4" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>
<TextView android:text="5" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>
<TextView android:text="6" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip" android:layout_weight="1"/>

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using a framelayout to position 2 buttons in the center of the screen. I'm anchoring from the center (using layout gravity = center_horizontal) then applying Layout margin left = 50dip and Layout margin right = 50dip to each button. In 2.2 the margins are being drawn much larger than the numbers I've declared (50dip/50dip). It looks more like 125 or 150. Oddly enough, this doesn't appear to be happening with margin bottom/top, only left/right. Is this a bug, or a sign that I'm doing something incorrectly?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am facing problem in fixing the child in particular place in views or layout.
1) Can I fix the child at the starting and ending of Layout directly?
2) Can I fix the child at the starting or ending of the view directly?
I have a number of child views, each child is a TableRow and I need to be able to change the order of the TableRows, such that I can swap the rows into any order. I know there is a method called removeAllViews() but I don't really want to remove and re-create the views if its possible to access and change the order. I really want the display to update as smoothly as possible, taking the minimum amount of time, is it possible?

I have a set of custom views that I would like to add to a LinearLayout object. However, the first object I add to the layout (I do this dynamically, during runtime) has a OnMeasure method that tries to get as much space as possible resulting in that it get's all the space LinearLayout object. This is correct behavior, but when I then add more objects following that I want the allocated area for the first object to decrease so the others will fit. As it is now, each following object will get zero space, and hence won't be visible.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to add a view dynamically that overlaps other views in the layout. I have Linear Layout defined for the activity. As part of the Layout I have a custom View. The content changes dynamically and sizes appropriately based on the content size, with fill_parent for width and wrap_content for height. But what I want is, dynamically take over the full screen and then based on a click go back to the normal mode. Is there a mode to display a view where - in it can overlap all other views in the layout?

I have read the Android UI trick 2 on Android developers, which tells people how to include a layout in another layout file multiple times, and give these included layouts different id. However, the sample here is overwriting the layout id, not the id of the views IN this layout. For example, if the workspace_screen.xml looks like this: And I include it three times in another layout file. Do I end up with three TextViews with id firstText, and another three with secondText? Isn't there an id collision? And how do I find the secondText TextView in the third included layout with findViewById? What should I input in the findViewById method?
