I was wondering how to use Relativelayout in order to make a tructure like this:
three buttons, let's call them A B and C; I want to put B and C one above the other and both of them on the right side of A as a single block matching the same width and height of A (so we'll have that B and C have half height of A but the same width).
Since I can't post images yet here you can find the image of what I'm looking for: http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/9765/stackg.jpg
The code I wrote about this part is this one:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#android:color/black"
android:paddingLeft="16dp"
android:paddingRight="16dp" >
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/A"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="96dp"
android:layout_below="#id/another_block_that_fills_all_the_line"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/B" />
<Spinner
android:id="#id/B"
android:layout_width="96dp"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:layout_below="#id/another_block_that_fills_all_the_line"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
<Spinner
android:id="#id/C"
android:layout_width="96dp"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:layout_below="#id/B"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
The problem is that it's not going to scale with every screen because I had to set static sizes. I tried a lot of different solutions like using all the possible combinations for the layout_align and changing wrap_content even randomly but still, I can't fit them in the way I want them to without using static sizes.
Use LinearLayout with layout_weight. Try this layout
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0"/>
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0" android:orientation="vertical">
<Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1.0"/>
<Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1.0"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Try this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#android:color/black">
<Button
android:id="#+id/A"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/relativeLayout"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/relativeLayout"
android:text="AAA"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/relativeLayout"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/A"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:background="#android:color/black">
<Button
android:id="#+id/B"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="BBB"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/C"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/B"
android:text="CCC"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
It should be as below
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="10dp" >
<View
android:id="#+id/helper"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/A"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/helper"
android:background="#android:color/black" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#id/A"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignTop="#id/A"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/helper"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/B"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="2dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#android:color/black" />
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/C"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#android:color/black" />

I'm attempting to prevent two images from overlapping - and I though I'd be able to do so using two RelativeLayouts inside a LinearLayout - both set to wrap_content - however the two imageViews ( #+id/imageView1 - the boxart and #+id/background - the background) however they still seem to overlap.
Can someone spot what I may have done wrong in this implementation?

Screenshot:
Instead of using Relative layout use a Linear layout with orientation horizontal and then use two Linear layouts with layout_weight=1 for each ImageView. It will divide your screen into two equal parts horizontally.
For example :-
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" />
<LinearLayout android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
As per your given layout update your layout as follows:-
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

With regards to your particular situation, the 2 ImageViews causing problems are placed each in a RelativeLayout, which are also placed in a RelativeLayout. Views placed in a relative layout can overlap each other. So when you added the 2 children RelativeLayouts in the parent one, exactly this happened. To make one follow the other, you can add android:layout_toRightOf="#id/id_of_the_layout_you_want_on_the_left_of_this_one" to the second child.
Also, if you are willing to change your layout a bit, you could achieve this through weight and LinearLayout (note however that this will work only if the desired combined width of the 2 children is less than what the parent is willing to offer):
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
... />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
... />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I'm new android programmer, I designed a page screen of 4". I've initialized with "dp" unit of measurement.
but when I run my project in screen of 10" or 7" or 3"2 components go wrong.
I learned dp is for all of screen, but I don't know why my page not be set to all of screens.
If you could include any code of your XML file, that would be very helpful.
Aside from that, I believe you haven't set android:layout_width and android:layout_height so you are getting odd looking sizes for the other display sizes of you XML.
Add
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
to your <RelativeLayout>
e.g.
<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"
...

If you do in fact have this or it does not help with your issue
, then please respond with an example of your code.
my xml file is here, but I set visibility of one linearlayout to gone
and when user touch button the linearlayout will be visible and another linearlayout will be gone

In my layout i want to display two imagebuttons in the center and a my amountmeter below it on the bottom, all centered vertically, i have tried many ways but cant seem to find that perfect layout. all the component align vertically and center but it makes my amountmeter small and not full width of the screen.
How it should be
how it is now
updated code
current layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/purchase"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/round_button"
android:src="#drawable/ic_cart" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/sell"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/round_button"
android:src="#drawable/ic_sell" />
<com.example.mobile.view.AmountMeterView
android:id="#+id/mobileAmount"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center|bottom"
android:padding="4dp" />
COPY PASTE BELOW CODE
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >

android:id="#+id/purchase"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/sell"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/purchase"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />

android:id="#+id/mobileAmount"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/sell"
android:padding="4dp"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</RelativeLayout>
AFTER THAT
android:background="#drawable/round_button"
android:src="#drawable/ic_sell"
android:background="#drawable/round_button"
android:src="#drawable/ic_cart"
PUT THIS LINE TO YOUR TWO IMAGE BUTTONS SURELY IT WILL WORK FOR YOU
One Linear layout is enough for this. Do not put your AmountMeterView into it's own LinearLayout.
Just make one Linear layout (vertical), and put all three elements in there. Gravity center_horizontal for all elements.
Try in this way hope this will help you

use dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawableResource(android.R.color.transparent);
Setting height to fill_parent to the first linear layout doesn't help ?
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

Try this..
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
and your imageview give as src
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:src="#drawable/severity_rating"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp" />
Use android:layout_weight="" for your linearlayout objects and arrange their appearance in window. Use especially for the item which will occupy more space.

If you use weight on each element with will also cause spaces. So use for object for important.
I have a ImageView, the image is loaded from the net and can vary in width.
Below I have a TextView with a description of the image. I want the TextView to be exactly as wide as the ImageView.
My try was this:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/imagedescription"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:textAppearance="#style/SmallTextGray" />
</LinearLayout>
which somehow works as the TextView's width is set accoring to that of the ImageView, but the TextView end after 2 lines:
I know I could set the TextView's width programmatically after I know the image's width, but is there also a way to do it in the XML layout?
I don't know if it will work, but try doing in your code, after load the image:
textView.setWidth(imageView.getDrawable().getIntrinsicWidth());
With a small change of layout: replace LinearLayout with a RelativeLayout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/imagedescription"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/iv"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/iv"
android:layout_below="#+id/iv"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:textAppearance="#style/SmallTextGray" />
</RelativeLayout>
This way the TextView is always below imageView and its bounds are aligned to imageViews
You can use weight like this:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:weightSum="5">
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="1" />
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:text="2" />
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="3" />
You can use the wight property in xml and give equal weight to both imageview and textview. then both size will be equal
In your case do this:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/imagedescription"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textAppearance="#style/SmallTextGray" />
</LinearLayout>
Try This.This will work
<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:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/imagedescription"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:typeface="monospace" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
This works for me:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/controller"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="asdasdasasasdasdasdasdasdasdasdadasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdsadasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdsdasdasdasdsadsadsadasdasdsadsadsadasdasdasdasdasdasddasdasdasdasdasdasdasdsadasdasdasdasdasdasdsadasdasdsa..."/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
