Android :: Relative Layout Height To Fill Remaining Space
Sep 9, 2010
I have the following layout in my xml file:
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/logoLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
-- some images </FrameLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_below="@+id/logoLayout">
Button 1
Button 2
Button 3
Button 4
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dip"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
Button 5
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout>
Maybe I didn't do it in the best way. What I want: have the Layout that contains the 4 buttons to use the entire space between the top and bottom layout, and I want to have the button equally arranged in the layout. Something like this:

I add the whole layout code:

I have a button on a relative layout that hugs the buttom of the parent, but since there is not much above the button, the height of it is massive and extends to the object above it.What kind of code can I use to make sure the button stays at a normal height while still hugging the bottom of the parent?

Let's say I want to make a layout that has 3 TextViews, one on top of the other. But, I want the top TextView to always "stick" to the top of the screen (regardless of orientation), and I want the bottom TextView to always "stick" to the bottom of the screen. Then I want the middle TextView to always fill the available space in between (again, regardless of screen orientation). I've had no luck with LinearLayout and I've come close with RelativeLayout but neither have provided by desired solution.

If I have the following:
CODE:..............
How can I get the body (second EditText) to fill the rest of the screen, but still have the scrollview kick in when the contents of the body are too long? Like a height="wrap_content" and minHeight="fill_parent"
layout_height="fill_parent" seems to not do anything if you put them in a scrollview
A working example of what I want is the email app compose window
I tried this and the EditText elements act like they are wrap_content and no filling is happening. Just scrolling if you type enough

I am writing an android application that has 3 views one below the other. Each view has to be of equal height, depending on the screen size. Each view occupies the full width of the screen. How do you specify in the layout xml that the view has to take up 1/3rd height of the device display height? What would be the appropriate layout to use in this case?

I have a long text and I want it to be displayed with a TextView. The text I have is much longer than the available space. However I don't want to use scrolling, but ViewFlipper to flip to the next page. How can I retrieve the lines from the first TextView that are not shown because the view is to short so that I can paste them into the next TextView?
I simply have to use a custom View with a StaticLayout like this:
public ReaderColumView(Context context, Typeface typeface, String cText) { super(context);
Display display = ((WindowManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();
dWidth = display.getWidth(); dHeight = display.getHeight();
contentText = cText; tp = new TextPaint();
tp.setTypeface(typeface); tp.setTextSize(25);
tp.setColor(Color.BLACK); tp.setAntiAlias(true);
StaticLayout measureLayout = new StaticLayout(contentText, tp, 440, Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, 1, 2, true);
Boolean reachedEndOfScreen = false;
int line = 0; while (!reachedEndOfScreen) {
if (measureLayout.getLineBottom(line) > dHeight-30) { reachedEndOfScreen = true;
fittedText = contentText.substring(0, measureLayout.getLineEnd(line-1));
setLeftoverText(contentText.substring(measureLayout.getLineEnd(line-1)));
} line++;
} } protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { super.onDraw(canvas);
StaticLayout textLayout = new StaticLayout(fittedText, tp, 440, Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, 1, 2, true);
canvas.translate(20,20); textLayout.draw(canvas);
}
Thats not optimized yet but you get the point.

I was wondering though how people handle being so close to the limit. My problems seem to come when I update my apps. Despite no reason for space increase when I update them I regularly lose space. Today I update a couple of apps and it pushed me over the limit, so I had to go in a find a few I don't use and remove them. That left me with supposed about 15.5mb left, but now it's gone down to 14.95, despite no apps being added, so I can see a warning coming soon. One thing I have noticed is that for some apps removing them completely, and then added them back again seems to gain you some space.
It unfortunately is just blind luck in finding ones that will happen for, or at least it seems to be so to me. Also very annoying is that the space you clear by deleting apps doesn't seem to correspond with what you get back. I just cleared supposedly 1.5mb of cache from the web browser, yet I only got 500kb of space back? Obviously I've been through all the apps and looked for any that I can clear the cache for. One thing I would like to know is why the low space warning has to come at ~15mb? Seems to be I've always got that space just wasted, which is a pain as there are plenty of 200-300kb apps I could add, using just 5mb of the space.

I'm reworking some of my layouts to use Relative layout. I have some building blocks which I'd like to reuse. The problem I seems to have with the include of the layout and position other layouts out of this include. Example:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height=wrap_content"

I need to implement a screen containing a list of blocks one below the other. Each block will contain mutiple superimpose elements (Images, text) for which the relative position needs to be specified with respect to the top left corner of the block.
For creating the list of blocks i have used listview. For each block i tried to use relative layout.This works ok when the phone is in landscape mode and absolute position is specified relative to left edge of the phone. But when the phone is put in the portrait mode the layout gets distorted.
1) What layout can be used for this scenario?
2) Can relative positions be specified in terms of percentage of screen width/height instead of pixels?

I'm attempting to add four controls to a layout; <label> <text> <seek> <radio> I want the seek widget to occupy all the available screen space between the edittext control and the radio control. However if I give it the value android:layout_width="wrap_content" only a small seek control is displayed and if I set the value to fill_parent it overwrites the radio control. I would have thought there would be a mechanism to occupy the free space between the text and radio controls dynamically.

i'm trying to write an unit test for my Android's RelativeLayout. Currently, my testcode setup is as follow:public class SampleRelativeLayoutTest extends AndroidTestCase {private ViewGroup testView;private ImageView icon;private TextView title;@Overrideprotected void setUp() throws Exception {super.setUp();
// inflate the layout
final Context context = getContext();
final LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
testView = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.sample_layout,
null);
// manually measure and layout
testView.measure(500, 500);
testView.layout(0, 0, 500, 500);
// init variables
icon = (ImageView) testView.findViewById(R.id.icon);
title = (TextView) testView.findViewById(R.id.title);
}However, I encountered NullPointerException with the following stack tracejava.lang.NullPointerException
at android.widget.RelativeLayout.onMeasure(RelativeLayout.java:427)

What should I change in my setUp() code to make the test run properly ?

In a RelativeLayout I have a Button to the right of a TextView. The problem is that the text view gets squished to the left of the screen.I want the Button to be squished to the right and the TextView take up all the remaining space.I can't use 'Fill Layout' on the TextView because the button then gets removed from the View completely.

I have a relative layout built from XML.I am capturing the onTouchEvent.When I touch the screen anywhere except over the TableLayout or ImageButton
the MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN and MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE
events work fine.
how to make the onTouchEvent() work on the TableLayout and ImageButton views?
The purpose of the exercise was to have a drag method working over the relative layout,no
Maybe manipulating the layout_margin values? I was contemplating a transparent canvas overlay but haven't figured that out yet.

Is it true that if you have a ViewGroup, say a RadioGroup, you can't align items outside the group to ones inside the group (using toRightOf, alignTop, etc.) That is, does toRightOf, toLeftOf and the rest only work with views at the same hierarchy level? I was trying to label some vertical radio buttons today and find I can only align to the RadioGroup and not the buttons inside the group.
If I remove the RadioGroup, then I can align things OK. There are lots of workarounds, of course, so I'm not stuck. Just thought I'd ask and document. And, BTW, where is the hot sh*t resource editor for Android so I can bang out screens quickly like the iphone guys, using a visual interface designer that knows all these silly interactions? The tools I've seen so far have been toys.

If a RelativeLayout must be generated at run time, what are the equivalent API calls for the attributes set in the XML Layout editor? Take for example this very simple RelativeLayout that places the second ImageView to the right of the first ImageView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:background="@drawable/ bg_sunrise"
android:layout_gravity="center" android:gravity="center">
<ImageView android:id="@+id/ImageView01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/icon"></ ImageView>
<ImageView android:id="@+id/ImageView02" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/ ImageView01" android:src="@drawable/icon"></ImageView> </RelativeLayout>
Of the many, variations I tried, I had the most hope for this one, but it didn't work either:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
RelativeLayout layout = new RelativeLayout(this);
layout.setLayoutParams( new ViewGroup.LayoutParams (
LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT ) );
ImageView imageView1 = new ImageView(this);
imageView1.setImageResource(R.drawable.icon);
imageView1.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
// set the ImageView bounds to match the Drawable's dimensions
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params1 = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams (LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params1.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP); layout.addView(imageView1, params1);
ImageView imageView2 = new ImageView(this); imageView2.setImageResource(R.drawable.icon);
imageView2.setAdjustViewBounds(true); // set the ImageView bounds to match the Drawable's dimensions
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params2 = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams
(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params2.addRule(RelativeLayout.RIGHT_OF, imageView1.getId());
layout.addView(imageView2, params2); this.setContentView(layout); }
Can anyone offer the Java equivalent to the above XML? Can anyone explain why there is no attribute, getter/setter, or method for accessing the properties that can be set in XML? What is the most elegant solution for dynamically creating Layouts, Views, and other Resources on the Android platform when there is no Java programmatic equivalent?

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?

I am using relative layout to superimpose one smaller image on top of a larger one. I want the bottom-right corner of the smaller image to coincide with B-R corner of the larger image. Im using margin parameters in my layout xml (specifying measurement in dips) but this doesnt seem to work for all devices and resolutions - in some cases the small image is shifted by 4-5px from the border. Is it possible to specify the position of the smaller image without pixel values? Ie with gravity or something?

Email: abcdgehfhf@mail.com
address text view has width set as wrap-content
but it appears like:

I am having an issue trying to setup a scrollview with a relative layout.
Here is my layout file
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
[Code]...
The scrollview is working correctly but the relativelayout is showing up correctly in my graphical layout view but I can't seem to see it on my phone or emulator. I want it to be displayed all the time and not a part of the scrollview. I just don't know how to fix it.
Here is how I would like it to work

I want there to be buttons at the bottom of the screen, but if the screen size is larger, more buttons would be added.
For example, at a small screen size, there might be 4-5 buttons at the bottom, but if you ran it on a tablet or something similar, there would be maybe 20 buttons.
It can't scroll either, it just has to dynamically fill the layout with buttons.
