Programmatically adding an ImageView relative to another one (Android) - android

I'm trying to programmatically add an ImageView then add another one that is relative to this one. My code:
RelativeLayout mLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.myLayout);
ImageView anchor = new ImageView(getApplicationContext());
anchor.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.anchor));
anchor.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams anchorParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
anchorParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
anchorParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
mLayout.addView(anchor,anchorParams);
ImageView spinner = new ImageView(getApplicationContext());
spinner.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.image1));
spinner.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams spinnerParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
spinnerParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
spinnerParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW,anchor.getId());
mLayout.addView(spinner,spinnerParams);
The first image is just where I want it - centralized - but the second one doesn't appear below the anchor, instead it appears at the top of the screen, just below the status bar.
Did I miss anything?

i think, you get null for anchor.getId(). Set a Id for your anchor view, before addRule()

I believe you need to programmatically give anchor an id before you can use anchor.getId() using anchor.setId(int).

It is difficult to say what is wrong, try to make XML and add it
LinearLayout myLayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.LogoView);
View hiddenInfo = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.search,
myLayout, false);
myLayout.removeAllViews();
myLayout.addView(hiddenInfo);

Android first ImageView in vertical LinearLayout stretching

I'm creating the above popup, the content of which consists of rows of horizontal LinearLayout views within a main vertical LinearLayout. Each horizontal LinearLayout contains one ImageView and one TextView.
I'm creating this within a PopupWindow, and doing so programmatically so that I can change the ImageView source as required.
As you can see the first icon seems to take up a lot of space, despite having the same code generating it as the other icons.
Below is the code:
LinearLayout verticalLayout = new LinearLayout(context);
verticalLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams mainLayoutParams =
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
verticalLayout.setLayoutParams(mainLayoutParams);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams =
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams iconParams =
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams textParams =
new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
//History row
LinearLayout historyLayout = new LinearLayout(context);
historyLayout.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
historyLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
ImageView historyIcon = new ImageView(context);
historyIcon.setImageResource(R.drawable.small_book_grey);
historyIcon.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
historyIcon.setLayoutParams(iconParams);
historyLayout.addView(historyIcon);
TextView historyText = new TextView(context);
historyText.setLayoutParams(textParams);
historyText.setText("History");
historyLayout.addView(historyText);
verticalLayout.addView(historyLayout);
//Exam row...
//... (duplicate of history row)
I've tried playing around with the layout parameters, even creating a mock xml layout that displays the content as I'd like, to match the parameters to.
If anyone can give some advice on making that book icon the same size as the others, I'd be grateful.
Add a scaleType to ImageView of fitCenter
Write this code under historyIcon.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
historyIcon.setWidth()`
And put width according to your layout.
Although I didn't figure out why the first image was scaling differently to the other images, I did find another solution: Using compound left drawables.
historyText.getViewTreeObserver()
.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
#Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
Drawable img = m_context.getResources().getDrawable(
R.drawable.small_book_grey);
img.setBounds(0, 0, img.getIntrinsicWidth() * historyText.getMeasuredHeight() / img.getIntrinsicHeight(), historyText.getMeasuredHeight());
historyText.setCompoundDrawables(img, null, null, null);
historyText.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
}
});
Manually setting the bounds to match the TextView worked. Seems clunky, but it was the only way I could get it to do what I was aiming for.

Adding Views to LinearLayout with weight programmatically

I am getting stucked on the following problem:
For a questions app I want to implement a nice output for a survey showing the possible answers and the percentage of people answered the specific question. Therefore, I want to add a "bar" to my app that displays the percentage. I try to solve this by using views and weighting them in a linear layout.
I want to add the different answers programmatically, this is the code I've got so far.
My problems are, that I am not getting closer to weighting the views and resizing them.
/* Add all questions */
RelativeLayout my_root = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.ownerRL);
/* Add a new Linearlayout as a container for the question */
LinearLayout A = new LinearLayout(this);
A.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
my_root.addView(A);
/* Create a new View in this container, for the status bar */
View new_view = new View(getBaseContext());
new_view.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(50, 20, 3);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) A.getLayoutParams();
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW, R.id.question1);
A.addView(new_view);
View new_view2 = new View(getBaseContext());
new_view.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);
ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp2 = new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(50, 20);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params2 = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) A.getLayoutParams();
params2.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW, R.id.question1);
params2.addRule(RelativeLayout.LEFT_OF, new_view.getId());
A.addView(new_view2);
The Green view should actually be right of the yellow one (which is not visible).
How do get it managed such that it creates a red/white bar that has a height of 4px and the red and weight parts are weighted?
Thanks for your help!
check this link, Set Linear Layout weight it like this
LinearLayout.LayoutParams param = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 1.0f);
The last parameter is weight.Hope this help.

Aligning ImageView to LinearLayout programmatically

I need to programmatically align an ImageView to the bottom of a LinearLayout.
I, of course, already tried to add the ImageView as a child of the LinearLayout, but the image get shrinked (cause the LinearLayout is smaller than the image), and I need the image not be resized, only bottom-aligned.
I also tried this :
RelativeLayout main_layout = (RelativeLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.main_layout);
LinearLayout line_0_layout = (LinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.line_0_layout);
ImageView horse_img = new ImageView(getActivity());
horse_img.setImageResource(R.drawable.horse);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layout_params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
layout_params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_BOTTOM, line_0_layout.getId());
horse_img.setLayoutParams(layout_params);
main_layout.addView(horse_img);
but it doesn't work : the image is added to the view but not aligned to the LinearLayout.
It seems simple question, but it's not.
Thanks in advance for your help.
layout_params.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW, line_0_layout.getId());

Create cell in RelativeLayout square

I've RelativeLayout created in layout/activity.xml
And i want to add some elements there programmatically by following way:
RelativeLayout rlayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams p = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
rlayout.addView(CustomView,p);
And it works, but elements which were added doesn't fill all view, but i need it.
and also i want to add such elements in square (width=height), how can I do it?
To fill all view Use LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT instead of LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT.
To make layout as square just create int width,height = 300; and then :
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams p = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(width, height);
or pass LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT into RelativeLayout.LayoutParams and change height and width of your custom view.
To make view square :
Button customView = new Button(this);
customView.setLayoutParams(new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(200, 200));
RelativeLayout rlayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1);
rlayout.addView(customView);
to make fill on all view you can use this:
Button customView = new Button(this);
customView.setLayoutParams(new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
RelativeLayout rlayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1);
rlayout.addView(customView);
Also you can add rules for your layout items like this :
p.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_LEFT);
Best wishes.

Place an imageView dynamically in Android

i am adding an imageView to a Relative layout.It shows up at the beginning of layout
I have two buttons in the layout.
I button to the layout left and one to layout right. Now i want to place these under the button to right.
how can i do that. My code is
ImageView image = new ImageView(this);
image.setImageBitmap(imageBitmap);
layout.addView(image);
Try using the
android:Layout_below="#id/yourButtonId" or
android:LayoutBelow="#id/yourButtonId"
Programmatically it means :
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams rlp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
rlp.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW, yourButtonVariable.getId());
yourRelativeLayout.addView(yourImageView, rlp);
