Linearlayout below scrollview not showing up - android

The following should show a scrollview that takes up the entire screen except for a small portion large enough for a button at the bottom. When I run this the button/layout does not show up at all. Only the scrollview which takes up the entire screen with other views I have within the scrollview. Thoughts?
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context="com.th3ramr0d.armybodyfatcalculator.MainActivity"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</ScrollView>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button 1"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout

This will do the job for you
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
tools:context="com.th3ramr0d.armybodyfatcalculator.MainActivity"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
>
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_above="#+id/myButton">
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button 1"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/myButton" />
</RelativeLayout>

ScrollView with LinearLayout child does not wrap_content correctly

So, I have the following .xml:

The issue is that the last ListView is on only 1 row, and it has to be scrolled to display all the items in the list. I tried to add to the linear_parent a height of match_parent but it wont let me, it says that I should use instead wrapcontent. How can i change the layout to display the items on all the screen, not just half?
In this case, On the ScrollView use android:fillViewport="true" and for child of ScrollView android:height="wrap_content".

How to add more content below a MpAndroidChart?

I have a PieChart that is working perfectly. However, I need to have more content - EditText, Texviews, and Buttons, below the PieChart. I want the users to be able to scroll down and see different content.
I have a RelativeLayout inside of a LinearLayout whose orientation is vertical but nothing shows.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.github.mikephil.charting.charts.PieChart
android:id="#+id/pie_chart"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</RelativeLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Click me"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Put your LinearLayout under ScrollView. It should work.
In your chart, make height to wrap_content.
It should look something like this:
<ScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.github.mikephil.charting.charts.PieChart
android:id="#+id/pie_chart"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Click me"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>

How to keep Android Button view in the bottom of the screen?

I have an activity which contains mainly 2 components: A Scroll view and a Button.
I want to place the button at the buttom of the screen, fixed.
I tried many things but i cannot keep the button location fixed at the button of the screen, bacause as the content of the scroll view increases, the button is pushed outside the activity screen.
I want to achieve something like this:
Can anyone tell me how to achieve this?
My XML file is clean (all custom views are programmatically written, can't be shared!):
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/scrollView"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/editableViewGroup"></LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Save Changes"
android:id="#+id/customButton" />
Use a LinearLayout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:fillViewport="true">
<!-- ... -->
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Save Changes"/>
</LinearLayout>
Use a RelativeLayout to host your views and pin the Button to the bottom of the layout.
you can use LinearLayout or relativeLayout like this
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/scrollView"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/editableViewGroup"></LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Save Changes"
android:id="#+id/customButton" />
</LinearLayout>
If you use a relative layout try this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.example.testproject.MainActivity" >
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/scrollView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_above="#+id/button1">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:text="Button" />
</RelativeLayout>

Button view disappears when the scrollView expands

In the xml file posted below I wanted the scrollView to be above the button, and the Button does not disappear no matter how the scrollView expands. I tried to do so as mentioned in the posted xml file but the problem is when the scrollView expands the button disappear.
please let me know what i am missing.
XML
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="vertical">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_00"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|center_horizontal">
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_00"
android:text="OrientierungsPruefung"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Try this:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="#+id/textView" />
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_00"
android:text="OrientierungsPruefung"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Your RelativLayouts were unecessary!
The Button at the bottom will always be shown no matter the contents of the ScrollView. Key is to set layout_weight=1!

How do I rearrange my linear layout with weights?

I am currently using a linear layout structure that looks as follows:
The associated xml code is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshLoadMoreScrollView

android:id="#+id/scroll_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/altercolor2"
android:layout_gravity="top">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:baselineAligned="true">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/columnOne"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight=".53"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/first_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
layout="#layout/item_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/first_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".47"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/second_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
layout="#layout/item_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/second_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity="top" />
<include
android:id="#+id/third_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
layout="#layout/item_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/third_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshLoadMoreScrollView>
However, I would like to rearrange that so that it looks like:
Is there a way I can rearrange the same with linearlayout? or do I have to use some other form of layout like relativelayout. I am pretty confused about the same. Also, would like to include the headers with the containers(the include code), is there a way I can easily achieve this?
Thanks!
After altering a code a bit, i had a little success moving the second header and second layout on top, but the first header is next to first layout instead on top, and same for third.Is there a way to fix it? I have attached the image here:
and the code is as follows:
<com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshLoadMoreScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/scroll_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:background="#color/altercolor2"
android:layout_gravity="top">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:baselineAligned="true">
<LinearLayout

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include

android:layout_weight="0.50"
layout="#layout/item_dashboard_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/first_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

<include

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
layout="#layout/item_dashboard_header" />
<LinearLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
android:orientation="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshLoadMoreScrollView>
Something like this should get you close to what you want. Use the same amount of weight for the two Views to take up equal amounts of space. This is obviously pseudocode for the layout because it seems you know the properties.
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
...>
<SecondView
width="match_parent"
height="wrap_content"
.../>
<LinearLayout
width="match_parent"
height="wrap_content"
...>
<LinearLayout
width="0dp"
height="wrap_content"
layout_weight="1"
orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/first_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
layout="#layout/item_dashboard_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/first_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
width="0dp"
height="wrap_content"
layout_weight="1"
orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/third_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
layout="#layout/item_dashboard_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/third_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
android:orientation="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
When you use weight in a horizontal LinearLayout your width should be "0dp" and in a vertical LinearLayout your height should be "0dp".
Now wrap these
<include
android:id="#+id/first_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
layout="#layout/item_dashboard_header" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/first_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.50"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
/>
in a vertical LinearLayout as I have above with ThirdView and FirstView. In whatever order you need them.
Use a RelativeLayout and it's really easy -
Just use Android:Layout_AlignToRightOf="#id/LeftView"
and Android:Layout_AlignBelow="#id/TopView" for the various views.
Ie: Your xmxl for your second pic should be:
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/Organize"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout //or Whatever type of view you want
android:id="#+id/Second"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<include.../>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout //or Whatever type of view you want
android:id="#+id/First"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/Second">
<include.../>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout //or Whatever type of view you want
android:id="#+id/Third"
androidlayout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/Second"
android:layout_ToRightOf="#id/First>
<include.../>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
In your first pic, and your original MXML, you have created a LinearLayout and set it to horizontal (left to right) and then put a second LinearLayout after (to the right of) it. Inside that second one, you have populated it with two items, that get distributed top to bottom. Using RelativeLayout is personal preference, but it makes controlling where you want things to appear on the screen a little more straightforward.
