Android - Layout Not Centering - android

I'm confused, this should be centering, yet it's not.
public void addTableImage(String imageName, LinearLayout L){
ImageView newImage = new ImageView(c);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(150, 150);
newImage.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
int id = c.getResources().getIdentifier(imageName, "drawable", c.getPackageName());
RelativeLayout l1 = new RelativeLayout(c);
l1.setLayoutParams(new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(400, 160));
l1.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
l1.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
newImage.setImageResource(id);
l1.addView(newImage);
L.addView(l1);
}
And I'm getting this as a result:
Image shows up fine (yes, it's just a placeholder green box), the background is set, and everything is set to be Gravity.CENTER, yet it's still left oriented.
Bonus points: Anyone know why "Ask a Question" now autocompletes your last question's info? It's a bit confusing, making me think I'm actually editing an old question.

Change your code to:
public void addTableImage(String imageName, LinearLayout L){
ImageView newImage = new ImageView(c);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(150, 150);
newImage.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
int id = c.getResources().getIdentifier(imageName, "drawable", c.getPackageName());
RelativeLayout l1 = new RelativeLayout(c);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp=new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(400, 160);
lp.gravity=Gravity.CENTER;
l1.setLayoutParams(lp);
l1.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
l1.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
newImage.setImageResource(id);
l1.addView(newImage);
L.addView(l1);
}
Your image is centered inside relativelayout by setting gravity of relative layout to center.
But to set relative layout itself to the center of the Linearlayout it is in you need to set layout gravity to center of relative layout to center or gravity of the LinearLayout to center.
You can try above code it should work.

ImageView won't obey maxWidth and height

I have created an ImageView by code and I want it to have a max size of 24x24dp. But the setMaxHeight/Width aren't working. The image I use is a svg Drawable and it's size is 40x40dp.
I have also tried to use imageView.setMinimumHeight/Width and
imageView.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams((int) getTypedValueInDP(24), (int) getTypedValueInDP(24)));
without any effect!
Here I am creating the ImageView:
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(context);
imageView.setMaxHeight(getTypedValueInDP(20));
imageView.setMaxWidth(getTypedValueInDP(20));
imageView.setImageDrawable(context.getResources().getDrawable(drawable));
imageView.setPadding(left, 0, left, 0);
and I'm using it with a RelativeLayout also made in code like this:
RelativeLayout toastLayout = new RelativeLayout(context);
toastLayout.setBackground(getBLLShape());
toastLayout.addView(getImageView());
You need to specify the LayoutParams for the ImageView before adding to the ViewGroup.
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
imageView.setMaxHeight(getTypedValueInDP(20));
imageView.setMaxWidth(getTypedValueInDP(20));
imageView.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
imageView.setImageDrawable(context.getResources().getDrawable(drawable));
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams =
new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
imageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
RelativeLayout toastLayout = new RelativeLayout(this);
toastLayout.addView(imageView);
The padding seems to be messing up with the setMaxWidth(). Make sure that the padding you give at both sides must not be equal to or greater than setMaxWidth argument. In your code, you are giving padding to left and right side. So, change:
imageView.setMaxWidth(getTypedValueInDP(20));
to
imageView.setMaxWidth(2* left + getTypedValueInDP(20));
If your image and imageview have same aspect ratio. Did you try
imageview.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_INSIDE)

How to set height and width for Relative Layout through code

I want to add one imageView, TextView in a Relative Layout with background image through programmatically.I spedified height and width for the relative layout but it is not fitting to the specified width and height. where am going wrong ploesae help
Thanks in advance
here is my Code:
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp_topheader = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(800,45);
relative_topheader = new RelativeLayout(this);
relative_topheader.setLayoutParams(lp_topheader);
relative_topheader.setId(1);
Resources resources_topheader = getResources();
Drawable drawable_topheader = resources_topheader.getDrawable(R.drawable.headerbar_m);
relative_topheader.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable_topheader);
setContentView(relative_topheader);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp_banner = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(385, 206);
relative_banner = new RelativeLayout(this);
relative_banner.setId(2);
relative_banner.setLayoutParams(lp_banner);
lp_banner.setMargins(40, 40, 0, 0);
lp_banner.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW,1);
ImageView iv = new ImageView(this);
iv.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);
iv.setLayoutParams(lp_banner);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.banner_image);
iv.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
setContentView(iv, lp_banner);
The root view (that is, the view that you set as the content view) always fill the entire area of the window. If you want it to take only a certain part, add it to another Layout that will take the entire window.
Try this instead of the last line:
LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(this);
ll.addView(iv, lp_banner);
setContentView(ll);

Android. How to move the imageview(set position/margin) when it is created

I want to put some images in an area at the application start.
As the number of images is not a fixed amount, so I have to create images dynamically.
I want to set the position/margin of every images while they're created for good balance.
I have tried follows, but there is no efficacy.
・After Created, use imageview.layout().
・Use LayoutParams.margins().
・Use AsyncTask to set margins.
・activity.runOnUiThread().
This is the code:
// After access server, if needed then add a imageview to the 'c_box'
// c_box: the parent that imageview to add.
FrameLayout c_box = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.c_box);
MarginLayoutParams mlp = new MarginLayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
ImageView img1 = new ImageView(this);
img1.setImageResource(R.drawable.c_file);
img1.setLayoutParams(params);
img1.setLongClickable(true);
img1.setId(img_id);
c_box.addView(img1);
img1.setOnTouchListener(listener);
**// it's possible to set the position by layout or margin?
img1.layout(100, 100, 200, 200);**
I don't know where to call the invalidate() method.
// After access server, if needed then add a imageview to the 'c_box'
// c_box: the parent that imageview to add.
FrameLayout c_box = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.c_box);
MarginLayoutParams mlp = new MarginLayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
mlp.setMargins(100, 100, 200, 200);
ImageView img1 = new ImageView(this);
img1.setImageResource(R.drawable.c_file);
img1.setLayoutParams(mlp);
img1.setLongClickable(true);
img1.setId(img_id);
c_box.addView(img1);
img1.setOnTouchListener(listener);
Finally I found the point:
FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
Gravity.NO_GRAVITY);
the 3rd param(Gravity.NO_GRAVITY) that I missed. use it you can position views at anywhere with setting width/height.
You could use MarginLayoutParams
MarginLayoutParams mlp = (MarginLayoutParams) yourImageViewHere.getLayoutParams();
mlp.setMargins(leftMargin, topMargin, rightMargin, bottomMargin);//all in pixels
yourImageViewHere.setLayoutParams(mlp);
To set your margins dynamically.

Setting relative layout parameters

So I'm trying to add an imageview to my current xml design - and its working decently. Now my main problem is that I cant seem to find a way to set the attributes for the image like where it needs to be displayed etc.
RelativeLayout mRelativeLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.board);
ImageView i = new ImageView(this);
i.setImageResource(R.drawable.blue_1);
i.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
mRelativeLayout.addView(i);
setContentView(mRelativeLayout);
I tried messing around with setlayoutparams but got absolutely no clue what to do with it.
You actually have to use the class LayoutParams to do that efficiently and easily :
RelativeLayout mRelativeLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.board);
ImageView i = new ImageView(this);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(40, 40);
params.leftMargin = 25;
params.topMargin = 25;
i.setImageResource(R.drawable.icon);
i.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
mRelativeLayout.addView(i, params);
This works for me and put my icon in the top left corner of the screen with the specified margin to the sides of the screen.
Does that help?

how to center layout to vertical in android through java code?

friends,
i want to set android:layout_centerVertical="true" property of layout
through java code of an image.
can any one guide me how to achieve this. here is my code.
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params.height = (int)totalHeight;
img.setLayoutParams(params);
i have tried using setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_CENTER) but no use.
any help would be appriciated.
Try this Code..
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams
((int) LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, (int) LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
img.setLayoutParams(params);
Correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like you are trying to set the alignment (or positional orientation) of an image inside of a layout? To do that you need to set the gravity property of the layout containing the View you align.
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.icon);
RelativeLayout layout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
imageView.setLayoutParams(params);
imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
layout.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL | Gravity.TOP);
layout.addView(imageView);
In this example I'm programmatically adding an image to a RelativeLayout in my layout resource, adding an ImageView, and aligning it so it will be placed at the top, vertical center position.
In the new SDK there's no Gravity.VERTICAL_CENTER, but maybe you could set this with
layout.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER).
