I am trying to use a SlidingDrawer which has a bottom to top structure.. I have placed 4 spinners inside the content of that sliding drawer.. And when i executes, the handle(which i have an image) is showing above the screen. I want that handle just above the content(ie just above the 4 spinners..)
here is my xml layouts...
main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<SlidingDrawer
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/drawer"
android:handle="#+id/MyHandle"
android:content="#+id/MyContent">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/MyHandle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/SlideIcon"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/images"/>
</LinearLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/MyContent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="200dip"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/DrawerContent"
layout="#layout/spinnerlayout"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</FrameLayout>
</SlidingDrawer>
</FrameLayout>
and spinnerlayout.xml..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:foregroundGravity="bottom"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:background="#color/grey">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<Spinner
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spinner_first"/>
<Spinner
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spinner_second"/>
<Spinner

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spinner_third"/>
<Spinner
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spinner_fourth"/>
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
And to make my question more clear, i have the screenshots..
I want to have that handle(arrow) just above that spinners..
Is it possible to place it?
The onMeasure() method of the SlidingDrawer class basically overrides the layout modes to fill_parent, this is why layout_height="wrap_content" is not working.
To get around this, you can extend SlidingDrawer with a re-implemented onMeasure() method that honors the layout_width and layout_height attributes. You can then use this custom class in your XML layout by replacing with .
Note that since the drawer will no longer be filling the parent layout, you will have to enclose it in a LinearLayout with the gravity attribute set to the edge where the drawer should be.

In my xml file , i have one linearLayout and a button. The linearLayout contains a lot of textViews and checkboxes. So i wanted these textViews and checkboxes to scroll but the button should remain at its place i.e it should not scroll with the textViews. For this purpose, i cover my linearLayout with scrollView like this
<?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:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#drawable/homeo11" >
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/nexttodetail"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp">
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>>
<Button android:id="#+id/Next4"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:text="Next" />
</LinearLayout>
But doing this , hid my button. means the textviews and checkboxes are now scrolling properly but i can't see my next button. I try replacing the scrollView layout:height from fill_parent to wrap_content but this didn't work as well. Any help?
Use a RelativeLayout as your root View and then set your component with align_above, align_parent_top and align_parent_bottom like 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="#drawable/homeo11" >
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_above="#+id/Next4" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/nexttodetail"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp">
(...)
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>>
<Button
android:id="#+id/Next4"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:text="Next" />
</RelativeLayout>
I am trying to make a layout where there are a LinearLayout and inside it I want a FrameLayout and a button.
I want the button to use the bottom of the linearlayout and to use the maximum width and the enough height for the button, using wrap content.
The other component, the FrameLayout I want to use it the remaining part of the screen.
How can I do it?
Here it the layout so far..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/camera_preview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_capture"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:onClick="snapIt"
android:text="#string/Capture" />
</LinearLayout>
Is not showing the button :s
Thanks alot in advance ;)
Better to work out with relative layout with button aligned to parent bottom and your frame layout above it occupying the rest space of the screen.Like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/camera_preview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/button_capture"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_capture"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="snapIt"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
use the following xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_capture"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="snapIt"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:text="capture" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/camera_preview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/button_capture"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
i am just trying to make these layout, after compare my layout code and your layout code, i find a different code, there is in my code. Did you missing it or just move it away cause it useless from the layout code ?
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#id/flayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/hello_world">
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I'd like the OK / Cancel buttons to be anchored at the bottom (even when there's more items on the list that can be shown on the screen). Here's what it currently looks like:
The buttons are on the top, not on the bottom.
The layout that contains the buttons:
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:stretchColumns="true"
android:id="#+id/buttons_layout">
<TableRow>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnOK"
android:background="#color/pomegranate"
android:text="OK"
android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnCancel"
android:background="#color/wet_asphalt"
android:text="Cancel"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
The composite layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ListView android:id="#+id/options_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</ListView>
<include layout="#id/buttons_layout"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/options_list"/>
</RelativeLayout>
I followed the guidelines I read on http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/layout/relative.html
I tried this answer - https://stackoverflow.com/a/6285438/168719 - it hasn't helped me.
I suspected that it might not work because the list view doesn't "know" how tall it is, so the button layout doesn't know where to place itself, either. But I ruled it out by setting the ListView height to an arbitrary value like 100dp. The buttons are still superimposed over it.
I fiddled with all the layout attributes, but I can't get it to work.
Apart from the solution, I would also like to know why mine doesn't work...
the layout should be something like 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">
<ListView android:id="#+id/options_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/layout_buttons" >
</ListView>
<include android:id="#+id/layout_buttons"
layout="#id/buttons_layout"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_parent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"/>
</RelativeLayout>
you can use tab to do it
you can see this tutorial
Android Tab Layout Tutorial
you could try using it this way
<relativelayout1>
<relativelayout2 specify layout below listview with id="list">
<button1>
<button2>
</relativelayout2>
<listview id="list">
</listview>
</relativelayout1>
so this will ensure no matter how long your list is you always get the buttons below your list. so you can have a scrolling list and a static buttons below the list
try this. Put the include tag inside another RelativeLayout, then be sure ListView is above the new RelativeLayout
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/parentLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/buttonsContent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" >
<include
android:id="#+id/buttons"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
layout="#layout/buttons_layout" />
</RelativeLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/options_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#id/buttonsContent" >
</ListView>
</RelativeLayout>
Try like this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/layout_buttons"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView android:id="#+id/options_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>
<include android:id="#+id/layout_buttons"
layout="#id/buttons_layout"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_parent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Im not very good in creating android layouts so I am not able to align the button to the bottom in the MainView.
Picture:
Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/linearLayout1" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="#+id/lv_pizza" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1"></ListView>
<Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="#+id/bt_add"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="hinzufügen"></Button>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="#+id/relativeLayout2" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Please help
This works for a linear layout, note the layout_weight 1 on the list -- that's what pushes the button to the bottom:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="#+id/lv_pizza"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button android:id="#+id/bt_add"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="hinzufügen" />
</LinearLayout>
This then looks like this in the UI editor:
Hi you can set like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/linearLayout1" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="#+id/lv_pizza" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/bt_add" android:layout_height="fill_parent" ></ListView>
<Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="#+id/bt_add"
android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="hinzufügen"></Button>
</RelativeLayout>
Removing the RelativeLayout will push the button to bottom of the screen...
Use a layout_weight for the components inside the LinearLayout. If the ListView has a weight of 1.0, it should push the button to the bottom. I've done this with a ScrollLayout and it works well, allowing the component inside the scroll layout to actually scroll. You could put your ListView into a ScrollLayout to let it grow beyond the visible size.
Also, the second relativelayout also isn't necessary as it doesn't add anything.
You can set a marginTop in the Button until the bottom or change the layout to relative and set the position.
I want to have a button at the bottom of the listview.
If I use relativeLayout/FrameLayout, it aligns but listView goes down to very botton.
(Behind the button at the bottom)
FrameLayout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnButton"
android:text="Hello"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom" />
</FrameLayout>
</FrameLayout>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout

android:id="#+id/btnButton"
android:text="Hello"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Above two codes only work like the first image. What I want is second image.
Can anybody help?
Thank you.
A FrameLayouts purpose is to overlay things on top of each other. This is not what you want.
In your RelativeLayout example you set the ListViews height and width to MATCH_PARENT this is going to make it take up the same amount of space as its parent, and thus take up all of the space on the page (and covers the button).
Try something like:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0"/>
</LinearLayout>
The layout_weight dictates how the extra space is to be used. The Button does not want to stretch beyond the space it requires, so it has a weight of 0. The ListView wants to take up all of the extra space, so it has a weight of 1.
You could accomplish something similar using a RelativeLayout, but if it is just these two items then I think a LinearLayout is simpler.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#ffffff"
>
<ListView android:id="#+id/ListView01"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</ListView>
<FrameLayout android:id="#+id/FrameLayout01"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button android:id="#+id/Button01"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="button"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal">
</Button>
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Here is the design you are looking for.
Try it.
I needed two buttons side-by-side at the bottom. I used a horizontal linear layout, but assigning android:layout_height="0dp" and android:layout_weight="0" for the buttons' linear layout didn't work. Assigning android:layout_height="wrap_content" for just the buttons' linear layout did. Here's my working layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button
android:id="#+id/new_button"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="New" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/suggest_button"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Suggest" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
RelativeLayout will ignore its children android:layout_width or android:layout_height attributes, if the children have attributes that properly define their left and right or top and bottom values, respectively.
To achieve the result on the right image, showing the list above the button, your layout should look like this:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#android:id/button1"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/>
<Button
android:id="#android:id/button1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:text="#android:string/ok"/>
</RelativeLayout>
The key is to define android:layout_alignParentTop (defines top value) and android:layout_above (defines bottom value) in your RecyclerView. This way, RelativeLayout will ignore android:layout_height="match_parent", and the RecyclerView will be placed above the Button.
Also, make sure you look into android:layout_alignWithParentIfMissing, if you have a more complex layout and you still need to define these values.
I am using Xamarin Android, and my requirement is exactly the same as William T. Mallard, above, i.e. a ListView with 2 side-by-side buttons under it.
The solution is this answer didn't work in Xamarin Studio however - when I set the height of the ListView to "0dp", the ListView simply disappeared.
My working Xamarin Android code is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/ListView1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_above="#+id/ButtonsLinearLayout" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#id/ButtonsLinearLayout"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<Button
android:id="#+id/Button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/Button2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
I aligned ButtonsLinearLayout to the bottom of the screen, and set the ListView to be above ButtonsLinearLayout.
#jclova one more thing you can do is use layout-below=#+id/listviewid in relative layout
In your relative layout height of listview is match_parent which is fill_parent(for 2.1 and older) so best solution is if you want to use relative layout then first Declare your button then your list view, make list view position as above your button id, If you want button always at bottom then make it alignParentBottom..
Snippet is
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/rl1"><Button
android:layout_width="MATCH_PARENT"
android:layout_height="WRAP_CONTENT"
/><ListView
android:layout_width="MATCH_PARENT"
android:layout_height="0"
android:layout_above="#id/listview"/></RelativeLayout>
This prevents your list view taking whole place and make your button appear..
This will be the best and the most simple solution to the problem. Just add android:layout_above="#id/nameOfId" in the layout that you want to move above with respect to that layout.
