I define two components (One text View and one Button) in Linear layout.
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_1"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize = "15sp"
android:layout_weight="5"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:gravity="center"
android:hint="Write Greeting" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imageButton1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:src="#drawable/e301"/>
</LinearLayout>
If I write long text, the position of my ImageButton is changed. I want to fix the position. Any suggestion?
Replace your layout contents as :
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_1"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize = "15sp"
android:layout_weight="5"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:hint="Write Greeting" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imageButton1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:src="#drawable/e301"/>
</LinearLayout>
You can't use RelativeLayout's properties of alignment inside Linear layout.
See your modified code:
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_1"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:weightSum="3"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TextView
android:singleLine="false"
android:id="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize = "15sp"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:text="etegtdrgrgbvcvbghgfffffffffffffffffffffffffffff"
android:gravity="center"
android:hint="Write Greeting"
android:layout_weight="2"/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imageButton1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Keep layout width as 0 dp using weight and weightSum, so it will adjust. Also, keep sengleLine as false for textview.
Output:
Hope this helps.
Try below code:-
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="5"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:hint="Write Greeting"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imageButton1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/edit_view1"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:src="#drawable/e301" />
</LinearLayout>
Using weight then you must have width = 0dp(horizontal) and heigth = 0dp(vertically)
Use weights: you didn't define weightSum of layout so your weights are now useless. Set parent layout's weightSum to 6 (in order to use your values) or 100 and set children's weights as percents. And change children views' widths to 0dp.
[optional] Set button's width to match_parent so it'll take all remaining space.
In LinearLayout layout_toRightOf, layout_alignParentRight, layout_alignParentLeft are redundant. Use gravity for children views instead. (for Button it'll be `gravity="right").
Use the below coding. Tell me if you want better alignment. I have used default default image for alignment. If you want better than this, then give buttom image also.
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_horizontal" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/edit_view1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:hint="Write Greeting dfdsfdsfsdfadsfdfadf"
android:textSize="15sp" />
</RelativeLayout>

I am new to android and am trying to create a list view row item as follows:
On the far left of the listview item I need two stacked text views
In the center of the listview item I need an additional two stacked text view
On the far right I need a checkbox
I want to make the width of the center textviews a constant size, irrespective to the length of text.
Every time I adjust the middle linear layout, it pushes the checkbox off the screen unless I manually give it a width (which will not work for multiple screen sizes). Can someone please help?
I've tried using weights and all but I can't figure it out.

How to add an text above the 'button style' linear layout?
I want for example "Hello dear user! Check it below".
Where put textview, where add more layout or whatever?
It is very simple!
You have to add TextView, with id (text, for example) and, in your LinearLayout you need to add line android:layout_below="#+id/text". Optional, you can specify attribute android:layout_alignParentTop="true" in TextView.
Just use code below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#373c5c"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:text="Text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
/>
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/list_offer_item_container"
android:layout_below="#+id/text"
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:layout_marginRight="50dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/shape"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="10dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imgcreditcompany"
android:layout_width="36dp"
android:layout_marginRight="4dp"
android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="0dp"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:layout_height="36dp" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="start"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtname"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
android:textColor="#48899f"
android:textSize="#dimen/textsizeearncredit_title"
android:text="Name"
android:textAllCaps="false"
android:textStyle="normal|bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtdesc"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
android:maxLines="1"
android:textColor="#80869c"
android:textSize="#dimen/textsizeearncredit_desc"
android:text="This is a description of the offer and this is just a demo to show off 3 lines stacking correctly on top of each other"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:gravity="end"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical">
<TextView android:id="#+id/list_offer_badge_text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/list_offer_item_container"
android:textColor="#color/md_amber_700"
android:textSize="12sp"
android:visibility="gone"
android:text=""/>
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/nextArrow"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:tint="#color/md_grey_300"
android:rotation="180"
android:layout_width="32dp"
android:visibility="gone"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_height="32dp"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:padding="#dimen/two" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Above
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/list_offer_item_container"
put your TextView or whatever you want. So something like
<TextView android:id="#+id/myTV"
// other attributes />
Then in
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/list_offer_item_container"
add android:layout_below="#id/myTV"
By default, RelativeLayout puts it's elements at the top-left until you specify otherwise. So adding this will put your LinearLayout below the TextView.
I think the confusion is on how RelativeLayout and LinearLayout work. You have orientation in your RelativeLayout which does nothing. RelativeLayout puts it's elements in the order you tell it by the attributes such as layout_below and layout_above. LinearLayout, however, adds them in the order in which they show in the xml file which is why orientation matters in LinearLayout but not RelativeLayout.
You'll want to look at RelativeLayout.LayoutParams and other parts of the documentation to better understand how the layouts work and which is best in your specific cases.
I have 7 image buttons I am displaying and while editing the xml the preview looks perfect, however when I launch the app in an emulator it doesn't seem to scale and is cutting off the images.
It should look like this:
-0-0-
0-0-0
-0-0-
Where the '0's are the buttons. I have it setup for one overall relative layout and three linear layouts. The middle places first then the top and bottom align off the middle.
Here is my XML file
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Basically the top and bottom layouts get cut off near the bottom. I figure i'm missing some kind of scaling property, but i'm not sure.
All of your views' width and height are "wrap content".
In that case if the total images width/height is greater then the screen's width/height it will just cut off.
what you should do is:
1) set the LinearLayouts width to "match parent".
2) set weight to the children views as you wish.
3) set children width to 0dp for better performance.
Example code snippet:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:id="#+id/middle_left">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/dode1"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/testImage"
android:onClick="selected"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground" />
<ImageButton
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/dode2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/testImage"
android:onClick="selected"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
/>
<ImageButton
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/dode3"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/testImage"
android:onClick="selected"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground" />
</LinearLayout>
Good luck.
If your problem is only with the top and bottom images, then you only need to add a ScrollView as a parent to your RelativeLayout.
How do i align the arrows to be right above/below the numbers? Does each arrow need to have it's own linear layout? Is there a way to set this without setting a static amount of padding? I would like this to be generic enough to be used and show up properly on different devices...
I'm relatively new to android development - especially the UI portion of it... so any help would be appreciated!

You can nest another LinearLayout (with orientation:vertical) inside your LinearLayout (with orientation:horizontal).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

</LinearLayout>
Note that nesting too many layouts inside a layout is discouraged. Reference:
http://developer.android.com/training/improving-layouts/optimizing-layout.html
But having 2 layout hierarchy is totally fine.
You need to nest two vertical LinearLayouts inside of your horizontal LinearLayout. Here's one where I do the same thing but I have empty Views on each side and one in the middle. You can take those out if you don't want them and obviously change your ids, backgrounds, and such
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mpImage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_margin="10dp">
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".5"/>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mpLL"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="4"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/mpUpBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
style="#style/UpArrow"
android:onClick="cycleUp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/mpTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="breakfast"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:textSize="40sp"
android:textColor="#drawable/black"/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/mpDownBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:onClick="cycleDown"
style="#style/DownArrow"/>
</LinearLayout>
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".5"/>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/catLL"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="4"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/catUpBtn"
style="#style/UpArrow"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:onClick="cycleUp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/catTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Beef"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:textSize="40sp"
android:textColor="#drawable/black" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/catDownBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:onClick="cycleDown"
style="#style/DownArrow" />
</LinearLayout>
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".5"/>
</LinearLayout>
You will notice I have also used weight and a 0dp for the width of the nested LinearLayouts and for the View to give them the separation I wanted and to look right on different screen sizes. You can change those depending on your needs.
You can have nested layouts. Be careful not to have too many, however two should be fine. Here is an example of what I think you are looking for. The arrows and text should be aligned thanks to RelativeLayout.
<?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="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/number_picker_up_one"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:background="#drawable/up"
android:src="#drawable/up" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/one"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/number_picker_up_one"
android:text="100"
android:textColor="#color/OffWhite"
android:textSize="40sp" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/number_picker_down_one"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/one"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:background="#drawable/down"
android:src="#drawable/down" />
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/number_picker_up_two"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:background="#drawable/up"
android:src="#drawable/up" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/two"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/number_picker_up_two"
android:text="100"
android:textColor="#color/OffWhite"
android:textSize="40sp" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/number_picker_down_two"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/two"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:background="#drawable/down"
android:src="#drawable/down" />
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout_information"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.17"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_destination"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="\# Home in"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="19sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_time"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:textStyle="normal"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
/>
</LinearLayout>
I want to center the two textViews vertically,
but I want them to be aligned to one line at their bottom.
Now they are alined to the same bottom,
but they are at the bottom of their parent layout.
How can I do this?
I have thought to wrap their current layout parent ("parent1") with another layout
("parent2")
and make "parent1" be in the center of "parent2".
Is there another way without adding elements?
If your problem is that both views are aligned at the bottom of their parent you can use this.
Both views are still aligned to the same bottom and centered on the screen.
Your layout looks like a part of a bigger XML (weight=0.17), that is why I have used fill_parent on layout_width.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/layout_information"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.17"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_destination"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:text="\# Home in"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="19sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_time"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:text="\# Home in"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:textStyle="normal"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/text_view_destination"
android:layout_alignBaseline="#id/text_view_destination" />
</RelativeLayout>
try this way
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/layout_information"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center_vertical|bottom"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_destination"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="HOme in"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="19sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view_time"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center"
android:textColor="#color/solid_white"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:text="Home out"
android:textStyle="normal" />
</LinearLayout>
