I have stuck in some xml code and i hope you can help me out.
So here is what I need/what I have done by now.
I have 3 images of 650px width and I need them one below another while keeping aspect ratio.
I did that with the following code and it looks as it should. No problem here.
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/ll"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#3afa3f"
android:weightSum="3">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/krk_history"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/povjestkrka_vintage_yellow600" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/krk_frankopan"
android:background="#drawable/frankopan2_vintage_sundown600" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/krk_turizam"
android:background="#drawable/krk_turizam_vintage"/>
The problem is. I need to put three textviews in a left bottom corner of each image. Imagine it like image menu with text description on each image.
So, I can not use relative or frame layout because images won't play nicely with each other :) There is always a gap between or not aspect ration etc. I need weightsum.
Second, I can't hardcode the text on each image in photoshop because the app will be translated and text needs to change for each language.
I can have different images for each language but I am trying to avoid that.
Ah yea, one more last thing.
I tried to put entire linearlayout in relative layout and put the text between but the text appears beneath the image and I can't bring it upfront.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot,
Xsonz
just copy this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Take three FrameLayout inside your LinearLayout and inside FrameLayout keep the ImageView and TextView.
Or Else You can use RelativeLayout and give dependency to Views
You can use frame layout inside linear layout. create imageview inside the linear layout and create textview in another frame layout below it.
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frameLayout_image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/krk_history"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/povjestkrka_vintage_yellow600" />
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frameLayout_text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="-5dp" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="string" />
</FrameLayout>
Something like this might work for you.
//your layout -> LinearLayout>
....
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/image1"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/A1" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/textview1"
android:layout_margin="0dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="My Text"
android:layout_below="#id/image1"
android:layout_alignLeft="#id/image1" />
</RelativeLayout>
// end your LinearLayout
You can play with these parameters using Relative Layout Parameters android.com. The relative layout allows you to control the "relative" positioning between your elements.
You can lay your images out side by side, or in whatever fashion you wish.
Then you can adjust the text dynamically.

So I have a image view and below a relative layout. The desired is to always have the users see the text views and buttons in the nested layout. And the image is a top image ( not a full screen background) but some how there is a small gap and the background of the image is bleed past the image view. I have tried different Image scale types and different layouts completely(frame, all linear,etc..)

FYI layout-weights left gaps too.
There is too many ways to do it.
Try this solution using LinearLayout (orientation: vertical):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/REFragment"
android:orientation="vertical"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#color/accidentAssistanceColor">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/SettingsImage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:src="#drawable/ers"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<LinearLayout
android:background="#color/appStartERSBackground"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:id="#+id/onView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/SettingsImage"
android:gravity="bottom|clip_vertical|center"
android:orientation="vertical">
<Button
android:gravity="bottom|end"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:text="Not Now"
android:textColor="#color/white"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button2"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#id/button"
android:text="approve"
android:textColor="#color/white"/>
<TextView
android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
android:id="#+id/text2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#id/button2"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="BLdfdsAH"
android:textColor="#color/white"/>
<TextView
android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
android:id="#+id/text1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="BLAH"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And to answer you about how to scall your image i used android:scaleType fitXY to respect to ratio aspet.
If you desire to understand how every scallType works, see the following link:
https://robots.thoughtbot.com/android-imageview-scaletype-a-visual-guide
set view tag between your image and layout.
like this.
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="2dp"
android:background="#000000" />
I want to create a layout of the list item as shown in the image.I divided it into three parts taking whole layout as Linear(orientation-horizontal).Three parts are
1) Image
2) Paragraph
3) three edit text in a linear layout.
I have problem in the second part as the length of paragraph (Text View) it disturbs the next part.I also try by putting weight in relative layout but it does not work.What is the solution for this problem?
How to do something like this.
Code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/item_icon"
android:src="#drawable/hammer"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/item_name"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/item_icon"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="skvnksjdjbkjbkjb"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/item_detail"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/item_name"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/detail1"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="fkvjbfvkjbv"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/detail2"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="fkvjbfvkjbv"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/detail3"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="fkvjbfvkjbv"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
if you use layout_weight, the layout_width (for horizontal LinearLayouts) should be set to 0dp
I have a layout with a image of the card on the left hand side. The right hand side has 2 buttons on top. Then 2 images below them, and one image below the 2 images.
I would like the 2 images and 1 image to get centered.
The row with 1 image gets centred all right.
PARTIAL CODE
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mainLayout"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/viewfacebook"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/facebook" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/viewmail"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/mail" />
</LinearLayout>
I create a horizontal container for the 2 images and set it's gravity to center. This is not working. I also tried to set the gravty to center on the 2 images. But.... they always stay to the left hand side.

It's a little hard to follow your XML, but this should get you on the right track, give this a try.
If you are using linear layouts...
Nest the images you want to center side by side in a horizontal linear layout
Assign a layout weight to each image
You might have to play around with the layout_widths and heights using match_parent (or fill depending on your target API), and also with the layout_gravity and gravity params.
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" ... orientation="horizontal">
<ImageView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/viewmail"
android:src="#drawable/mail" />
<ImageView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/vietwitter"
android:src="#drawable/twitter" />
</LinearLayout>
Edited the code within the question. I had a rough time trying to see what you were trying to do. A picture for the question might have been very straight forward (imo). Now to answer your question, understand that LinearLayouts have by default left-justification. If you have multiple LinearLayouts nested, take extra caution when deciding their widths and heights, as they take precedence over gravity.
In a vertical linear layout, I have 2 textviews, then a button and then a frame layout.
I would like the button to be on the left of the frame layout. I tried putting the button in a relative layout, but how do I tell the frame layout to be on the right?
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/content_container_white"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingLeft="30dp"
android:text="#string/t0"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:textSize="30dp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/editText2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/t1"
android:textColor="#color/black" />
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/RelativeLayout1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/buybtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:text="#string/buy_button" />
</RelativeLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|right"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/videothumb"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
android:src="#drawable/button_play_on" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/videothumbimage"
android:layout_width="380dp"
android:layout_height="170dp"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/demo_thumb_home" />
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
You can do it by simply telling your FrameLayout android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/#+id/buybtn", but your FrameLayout must be inside a RelativeLayout too.
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/RelativeLayout1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/buybtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:text="#string/buy_button" />
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|right"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/#+id/buybtn" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/videothumb"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
android:src="#drawable/button_play_on" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/videothumbimage"
android:layout_width="380dp"
android:layout_height="170dp"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/demo_thumb_home" />
</FrameLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Push FrameLayout into RelativeLayout or just put button and frame together in horizontal LinearLayout - what would be more simple
ps - kepp your code clean, use ctrl+shift+F (if using Eclipse) to auto-arrange it
Put your framelayout within Relativelayout and then set property align parent right.
The question makes no sense. From the documentation:
FrameLayout is designed to block out an area on the screen to display a single item.
Emphesis mine.
If you want your layout to contain more than one item, do not use a frame layout. Use something else.

It is a simple question but I don't know how to do it because I'm new in android.
I have two TextViews in a relative layout and when the first TextView getting bigger it writes on the other TextView which I want to avoid it. How can I do it ?
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="first"
android:gravity="left"/>
<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="second"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
but when the text = firstfirstfirst.... it overrides the second textview.
You need to give you TextViews ids. Since you're using a RelativeLayout you can use layout_toLeftOf and layout_toRightOf, but you only need to use one of them.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/textView2"
android:gravity="left"
android:text="firstfirstfirstfirstfirstfirsitseirodsifjdsoijfoisddsefdfadafdafad" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:text="second" />
give some advice:
first you can set the left textview's max width using android:maxWidth="" to control the left size, but if the size bigger than the size the text will become like this:text...
or you need make the left and right area cleanly, for example:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="2" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/left"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="firstdasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="left"
android:text="secondsdasdasdarerewrwcxcadasdasdsadsdasdasdadadsd" />
it make the left and right half area, also you can change the android:weightSum size.
