TextView in the middle of ImageButton inside TableRow - android

I still didn`t a solution how to do that in XML. I want to center a textview over a imagebutton that are on a tablerow.
This is how should be:
My code:
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/tableLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:stretchColumns="1"
android:layout_below="#+id/button"
android:layout_marginTop="85dp">
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:paddingBottom="30dip" >
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"
android:id="#+id/imageButton5"
android:src="#drawable/options_460"
android:layout_span="3"
android:layout_gravity="left"/>
</TableRow>
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow2"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="0dip" >
<ImageButton
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"
android:id="#+id/a"
android:src="#drawable/buttonsh"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:onClick="rasp"
android:tag="a"
android:layout_gravity="right"
/>
<ImageButton
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"
android:id="#+id/b"
android:src="#drawable/buttonsh"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:onClick="rasp"
android:tag="b"
android:layout_gravity="left"/>
</TableRow>
............................................
</TableLayout>
Is there any way to do that? Any suggestion would be welcomed.
Thank you for reading.


First thing is that there is no need to take the table view, we have the easy alternative for it, you should try like below... here you have to just set a background 9.pach in your button and take appropriate id for the related component and you will bit your task. good luck

<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingBottom="20dp"

Sorry, not fully understanding. Did you want them lined up vertically? Then that would just be setting orientation to vertical in the linear layout. I looked at what this xml does right now. It appears to be button which is half the screen and textview with is the other half. Could you explain a little more what you want to see?

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

but it doesn't seems to be working as I want it to be. I need it like the following figure:
The problem with my code is the list view I can't stretch it to the bottom before the tablelayout. The other problem comes if the textview at the top is too long, it appears under the tablelayout and it's visible.
Also the tablelayout at the bottom shifted up when the keyboard is visible, I don't want this to happen.
Any suggestion please?

Have a single ListView in your layout. You can add other views(as shown in your diagram) as headers to the list view using addHeaderView() method. This way you will get the Scrolling effect as you desired.

Thank you all for your support. I came up with a better solution:

ScrollView needs to declare :
android:layout_above="#+id/Layout1"
Layout1 is the layout that host tableLayout1
But you will have some issues with ListView into scrollView

As there are only two Layout in your RelativeLayout, use LinearLayout. This will solve the overlap problem. Set the weight of ScrollView to keep the TableLayout at bottom.
The keyboard shift the Bottom table layout because it's mode is set to Resize. You will usually control this behavior through the android:windowSoftInputMode attribute on each definition in your AndroidManifest.xml. Set the value of this to adjustPan.

Complex ListView item layout with all elements the same size for each item?

I am trying to build a complex listview item layout with all of the elements being the same dimensions for each listview item with the entire layout taking up the whole width of the screen. So far I have attempted doing this using a linearlayout and found that this is the wrong approach. I have then attempted using a relative layout however this has not worked for me so I hope that someone can point out how I can make this work.
Here is a diagram of what I am trying to build.
Here is some more details about the diagram:
Only elements 5 and 6 have the same content for every list item. The
rest of elements all will have different text however the layout
should always be the same size.
Element 4 should only be 2 lines. Elements 1, 2 and 3 should only be 1
line.
Element 2 should be aligned left and element 3 should be aligned
right.
Element 2 and 3 should each be half of the width of element 4.
Here is my attempt at this layout using a RelativeLayout.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:padding="2dp">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRaceNumber"
android:layout_width="20dp"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRaceName"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/txtRaceNumber"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRaceClass"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:maxLines="1"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/txtRaceNumber" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRaceStartTime"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:maxLines="1"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/txtRaceClass" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btnTracklist"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#null"
android:paddingRight="8dip"
android:focusable="false"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/txtRaceStartTime" />
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/go"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/btnTracklist" />
</RelativeLayout>
Using this RelativeLayout all of the elements appear scrambled within the layout.
How can I get all of these elements to align as I have shown in the Diagram?

Is this what you need?

I have managed to get the desired layout using weightSum on the main layout.
Here is the code:

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:paddingTop="2dip"
android:paddingBottom="2dip"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="1"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRaceNumber"
android:layout_width="40dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Follow below structure I feel you can achieve what you want use weight and weightSum.
<LinearLayout orientation="horizontal">
<LinearLayout>
<TextView/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout orientation="vertical">
<TextView/>
<LinearLayout orientation="horizontal">
<TextView/>
<TextView/>

Table Layout Alignment?

I have designed an XML layout as in this image:
I need to equally place the four buttons in the screen but I am having trouble getting it to work. I tried all possible changes that I can think of. Below is the layout's XML:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:id="#+id/buttonlayout"
android:layout_alignBottom="#id/framelayout">
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TableRow>
<Button
android:id="#+id/previous"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/previous_icon" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_startprint"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/print_icon"
android:padding="10dp" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/cam_icon"
android:padding="10dp" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/next_icon"
android:hapticFeedbackEnabled="true"/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Can anyone help me out with this?

Hi jxgn use this code :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<TableRow
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/previous"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_startprint"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>

use android:layout_weight=1, and Use android:layout_width="0dp" to make buttons of equal weights..
EDIT
for example define your button as
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight=1
android:background="#drawable/cam_icon"
android:padding="10dp" />

If you set the attribute android:weight="1" for all four buttons they should be spaced out properly as TableRow is a subclass of LinearLayout. For better performance it is suggested to use android:layout_width="0dp" as well.

Try to replace all your buttons width with layout_width="0dp" and add layout_weight="1"
Try to use 9-patch image to avoid the fact that your image get stretched
<TableRow>
<Button
android:id="#+id/previous"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_menu_compass"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_startprint"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_menu_mylocation"
android:padding="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_menu_mapmode"
android:padding="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/next"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_menu_about"
android:hapticFeedbackEnabled="true"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
</TableRow>

Try to set at each button:
android:layout_weight="0.25"
Hope this will already work for you

Try this it is usefull
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/buttonlayout" >
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TableRow>
<Button
android:id="#+id/previous"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_startprint"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Applying android:layout_weight="1" in your xml will stretch your button images.
If you dont want to stretch button images use ImageButton and set android:src to your drawables.
Refer below code:
<TableLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<TableRow>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/previous"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/previous_icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/button_startprint"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/print_icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:padding="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/button_cam"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/cam_icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:padding="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/next_icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:hapticFeedbackEnabled="true"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>

Center TableLayout row in android xml

I am trying to align in the center 2 buttons in a table row, no matter the screen resolution, so i am trying to avoid using specified margins.
This is my code, it works only with declared margins, and i am using gravity and layout gravity...nothing worked for me. They did not align in the center.
Does anyone have an idea? Thanks anyway.

Put your buttons in a couple of LinearLayouts instead of a TableRow.
<TableLayout
...
>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_gravity="center"
>
<Button
android:id="#+id/image1Btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:drawablePadding="-5sp"
android:drawableTop="#drawable/image1"
android:src="#drawable/image1"
android:text="#string/image1text"
android:textColor="#color/darkgrey" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/image2Btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:drawablePadding="-5sp"
android:drawableTop="#drawable/image2"
android:src="#drawable/image2"
android:text="#string/image2text"
android:textColor="#color/darkgrey" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
...
</TableLayout>
The outer LinearLayout will be stretched to the width of the TableLayout and have its height set to wrap_content by TableLayout. The inner LinearLayout will be centered horizontally in the outer LinearLayout because the latter is vertically oriented.

<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/LinearLayout01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:background="#drawable/wood">

<AbsoluteLayout android:id="#+id/absoluteLayout1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:paddingLeft="10dp" android:paddingRight="10dp">
<TableLayout android:id="#+id/tableLayout0" android:background="#drawable/my_border" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_y="150dp" android:layout_height="match_parent">

</TableRow>
<TableRow android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="#+id/tableRow6" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:paddingTop="20dp">
