Dynamic list not showing all elements in a linear layout

I have a horizontal linear layout that is filled with TextViews from a dynamic list, but it doesn't show all elements since it seems to be out of the parent's bounds. What I need is to fill the space below if needed.
Here's my code:
The xml:
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="150dp"
android:id="#+id/imageView_serie" android:contentDescription="imatge_serie"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Nom_serie"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:id="#+id/nom_serie" android:contentDescription="nom_serie" tools:text="Nom_serie"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/imageView_serie"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize = "16dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:id="#+id/any_serie" android:contentDescription="any_serie" tools:text="any_serie"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/nom_serie"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Sinopsis"
android:textSize="12dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop = "8dp"
android:id="#+id/sinopsi_serie" android:contentDescription="sinopsis_serie" tools:text="sinopsis_serie"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/imageView_serie"
android:layout_below = "#id/nom_serie"
/>
<RatingBar
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="26dp"
android:id="#+id/ratingbar_serie"
android:layout_below = "#id/imageView_serie"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
style="?android:attr/ratingBarStyleSmall"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Puntuacio"
android:textSize="12dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop = "8dp"
android:id="#+id/puntuacio" android:contentDescription="puntuacio" tools:text="puntuacio"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/ratingbar_serie"
android:layout_below = "#id/imageView_serie"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="65dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Casting:"
android:textSize="14dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop = "24dp"
android:id="#+id/casting" android:contentDescription="casting" tools:text="casting"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="10dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:id="#+id/cast" android:contentDescription="cast" tools:text="cast"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/casting"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="65dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Direccio:"
android:textSize="14dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop = "24dp"
android:id="#+id/direccio" android:contentDescription="direccio" tools:text="direccio"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="10dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:id="#+id/dir" android:contentDescription="dir" tools:text="dir"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/direccio"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Temporades:"
android:textSize="24dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:id="#+id/nTemporades" android:contentDescription="nTemporades" tools:text="nTemporades"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Comentaris"
android:textSize="24dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:id="#+id/titol_comentaris_serie" android:contentDescription="titol_comentari_serie" tools:text="titol_comentari_serie"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="#+id/panell"
android:orientation="horizontal">
</LinearLayout>
And this how I generate the text views from the list:
LinearLayout panell = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.panell);
for (int i = 1; i <= 20; i++) {
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
TextView btn = new TextView(this);
btn.setId(i);
final int id_ = btn.getId();
btn.setText("button " + id_);
//btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(70, 80, 90));
panell.addView(btn, params);
btn = ((TextView) findViewById(id_));
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Toast.makeText(view.getContext(),
"Button clicked index = " + id_, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
});
}
Here's my :
output

I recommend Google's flexbox-layout project: https://github.com/google/flexbox-layout
A FlexboxLayout (when configured correctly) has the ability to add any number of child TextViews in a line (like LinearLayout would), but will automatically "wrap" to the next line if a child wouldn't fit.

Why not try to use a ListView , if u add the same propreties every time

Dynamically added tablerow only last row not visible

I have created a tablelayout with the header row added in the XML file and the remaining content rows filled in dynamically.
For some reason, the last row is not visible.
I looked through other related posts and everything seems okay in my code.
Appreciate if someone could take a look and point out the problem.

I'm not sure if it is still a problem, but try to use NestedScrollView instead of ScrollView.

I want to achieve the same output but programmatically

Try This
add LinearLayout into your xml
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/ll_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:background="#android:color/white">
</LinearLayout>
and change in your Java file like this
LinearLayout ll_main = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll_main);
for(int i= 0; i <5 ;i++) {
LinearLayout parent = new LinearLayout(Main.this);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams param= new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
param.weight = 1;
parent.setLayoutParams(param);
parent.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
TextView tv = new TextView(Main.this);
tv.setText("T1");
TextView tv2 = new TextView(Main.this);
tv2.setText("T2");
parent.addView(tv);
parent.addView(tv2);
ll_main.addView(parent);
}

i just got my answer and its below
LinearLayout ll_main = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linear);
ll_main.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
int j = 5;
final LinearLayout[] linearlayout = new LinearLayout[j];
for (int i = 0; i < j; i++) {
LinearLayout parent = new LinearLayout(this);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams param = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
param.weight = 1;
parent.setLayoutParams(param);
parent.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText("T1");
TextView tv2 = new TextView(this);
tv2.setText("T2");
parent.addView(tv);
parent.addView(tv2);
linearlayout[i] = parent;
ll_main.addView(parent);
}
}
}

Without using inflater and RecyclerView what's the best way to recreate my xml in code?

I'd like to display this under a toggle button when the toggle button is pressed
then disappear when the toggle button is pressed again, I've looked into expandable list views but it's seems over complicated for a few items that wont change visually.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

android:id="#+id/button"
android:text="Dummy Job"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<!-- <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/jobStats"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

Here is what i have for it's creation.
LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ReportsLayout);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f);
//layout.setLayoutParams(lp);
//layout.setLayoutParams(lp);
//layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
TextView viewMachine = new TextView(Reports.this);
TextView viewItem = new TextView(Reports.this);
TextView viewDate = new TextView(Reports.this);
LinearLayout horLayout = new LinearLayout(context);
Button enterJob = new Button(Reports.this);
Button editJob = new Button(Reports.this);
Button exportJob = new Button(Reports.this);
//enterJob.setLayoutParams(lp);
//editJob.setLayoutParams(lp);
//exportJob.setLayoutParams(lp);
if( button.isChecked()==(true)) {
layout.addView(viewMachine,lp);
layout.addView(viewItem,lp);
layout.addView(viewDate,lp);
layout.addView(enterJob,lp);
layout.addView(editJob, lp);
layout.addView(exportJob, lp);
}
else{
//layout.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
}
}
};
}
Problems are when i create this it looks like this
setting the view to invis

suggestion to use this lib directly in your app.
