I have a relative layout, inside of it is a ImageView that is centered in its parent.
I want to add a share up to the image. If I put this attribute android:layout_alignTop="#+id/myImage" the button will appear over the image. I want to be upper than this.
Use
android:layout_below="#+id/shareId"
in your <ImageView> tag. Or
android:layout_above="#+id/myImage"
in your share's View tag depending on what works better for you. If this doesn't fix it then please post the xml and a picture of what you want/have if possible.
RelativeLayout Docs shows the different properties that can be used.

You can customize chips-edittext-library for your need. Customizing by setting background to transparent, and editable to false.
-> Or you can use any other library which is used for displaying emoticon in EditText and customize it according to your need. Like android-emoticon-edittext-spike
You can use the Flow Layout library that manages the view arrangement itself.
When there is no space left the added View is moved to the next line
I am developing for android. The app is designed in XML in Linear Layout. What I want to do is to leave some blank lines between the consecutive buttons/text to ensure some neatness in the GUI. Is it posible to do it in Linear Layout? Please help...
You should use margins to seperate different components in your layout. An example of how this would look in your XML is: android:layout_marginTop="12dp"
If you want to leave space outside the border of text/button and next view elements you can use android:layout_marginLeft, android:layout_marginRight, android:layout_marginTop and android:layout_marginBottom.
If you want to leave space between border of the text/button and actual content of the text/button you can use android:paddingLeft, android:paddingRight, android:paddingTop and android:paddingBottom.

I want to make an about button in the top left. I tried:
android:layout_gravity:"top|left"
but it doesn't work , I searched and all what I found was using RelativeLayout and if I use that I'll have to make all my layout from beginning and it's not that good like the linear layout.
Couldn't post the code here. So this is my code on pastebin

Here you have given android:layout_gravity="center" to the Linear Layout so it is going to set gravity of the layout and as center and your About Button is child of layout its to going to set in center and you have given Margin_top also.Try to remove gravity amd Margin_top and you can see the result, the button will be top|left of the screen.
Hello i have used a Relativelayout in android using XML but when i see image in graphical layout there is small margin left at bottom in different screensizes.How to remove that margin.I also used a ScrollView in layout.
I think you have to set bottom margin in negative
like
android:layout_marginBottom="-10dip"
Check whether you have used padding for your layout,
Better post your layout file and/or screenshot.
I have a RelativeLayout defined in xml and I call the setContentView(R.layout.relativeLAyout) for displaying in Activity.
Now, if I want to resize this RelativeLayout then can it be done and if yes, then can someone let me know how?
The inner components can be resized relatively to the parent.
Is this actually possible?
Regards
Sunil
well if you use Eclipse, in the XML file, there at the bottom just switch to Graphical Layout.
and from there you can drag and drop payouts, Buttons etc :D
then in properties you can select add the pixels (200px ) on width/height
As to the inner components not resizing, make sure that both android:layout_width and and android:layout_height are set to fill_parent - then they should take up the space given to the parent.
