FlowTexView dynamically added text appear in single line height issue

I have added flowtextview jar file in my project lib folder and its working perfectly when i add it in my layout manualy.
I need to add flowtextview dynamically to my LinearLayout and add text and images dynamicaly into it. I can add text and images but the text appearing in sinle line, i thing its because of the flowtexview height setting issue.
please check the attached image , you can see the issue correctly.
code used for adding dynamic views as follows,
contentHolder = (LinearLayout)rootview.findViewById(R.id.contentOuter);
//add LayoutParams
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
//params.setMargins(10, 20, 10, 20); // llp.setMargins(left, top, right, bottom);
contentHolder.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
ftv = new FlowTextView(getActivity());
FlowTextView.LayoutParams fp = new FlowTextView.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
fp.setMargins(0, 10, 0, 10);
ftv.setLayoutParams(params);
ftv.setId(110);
ftv.setText("Currently it is placing that image as the background to the view and not the actual image in it.Currently it is placing that image as the background to the view and not the actual image in it.Currently it is placing that image as the background to the view and not the actual image in it..");
ImageView im = new ImageView(getActivity());
im.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.av1);
im.setId(5);
RelativeLayout rt = new RelativeLayout(getActivity());
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams rparams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
rparams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
rparams.setMargins(0, 10, 0, 10);
rt.setLayoutParams(rparams);
rt.addView(im);
ftv.addView(rt);
ftv.invalidate();
//add the textView and the Button to LinearLayout
contentHolder.addView(ftv);

at last i found the issue, its because of the jar file. its not an updated one. use flowtextview as a library project and add it to your project or use or Gradle:
compile 'uk.co.deanwild:flowtextview:2.0.2#aar'

Align image and text on textview

In my app, I populate a linearlayout with a text and a little icon (like a listview with a custom adapter).
I need the text and the picture to have the same size. Is there a way to do that?
Here's the code:
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
LinearLayout LayoutPadre = new LinearLayout(this);
TextView Tag = new TextView(this);
ImageView img = new ImageView(this);
Tag.setText(data);
if(stato.equalsIgnoreCase("presente")){
img.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_presente);
}else{
img.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_assente);
}
LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(75, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); //Here I need the img to have same size as the text, but Tag.getHeight() returns 0
layoutParams.setMargins(50, 0, 0, 0);
img.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
LayoutPadre.setLayoutParams(params);
LayoutPadre.addView(Tag);
LayoutPadre.addView(img);
The problem is that the image is not horizontally centered like the img.
Look at the screen
Thanks to all.

keep the layout_height of text and image as Match_Parent and not Wrap_Content... By that

If you are preserving the android:layout_height="wrap_content" or it did not work, you can also do android:gravity="center"

Adding images to one line in layout with ratio

I am doing an android app that have images which are located besides each other,
every image has its own width, I want to add these images in one line to fit the screen width,
with the same ratio for every one
I wrote code to add this images but still to know how to set the width programmatically
ImageView view = new ImageView(this);
view.setImageResource(R.drawable.a1);
ImageView view1 = new ImageView(this);
view1.setImageResource(R.drawable.a2);
ImageView view2 = new ImageView(this);
view2.setImageResource(R.drawable.a3);
LinearLayout my_root = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.root_layout);
LinearLayout child = new LinearLayout(this);
child.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
child.addView(view);
child.addView(view1);
child.addView(view2);
my_root.addView(child);
only image 1 and 2 appear but the third didn't appear because the width of screen finished
Any help !!
Thank you :)

You must need to use weight parameter to do this.
Try below code:
ImageView view = new ImageView(this);
view.setImageResource(R.drawable.a1);
view.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));
ImageView view1 = new ImageView(this);
view1.setImageResource(R.drawable.a2);
view1.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));
ImageView view2 = new ImageView(this);
view2.setImageResource(R.drawable.a3);
view2.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));

Use Layout Parameters to set height and Width of views at runtime.
like this
LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(50, 50);
view .setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

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 layout - WRAP_CONTENT from right to left possible?

I have a TextView and an ImageButton in a linear layout (horizontal). Total width I have is 300 pixel. Button image is 50x50. Max width I can use for text is 250. The code below works perfect if the text width is less than 250 pixels (WRAP_CONTENT work nice).
// create relative layout for the entire view
LinearLayout layout = new LinearLayout(this);
layout.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
// create TextView for the title
TextView titleView = new TextView(this);
titleView.setText(title);
layout.addView(titleView);
// add the button onto the view
bubbleBtn = new ImageButton(this);
bubbleBtn.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
layout.addView(bubbleBtn);
Problem comes when the text occupies more than 250 pixels. Button gets pushed out and becomes invisible within that 300 pixel space.
What I want is this: Allocate 50 pixels width for the image. WRAP_CONTENT in the remaining 250 pixels. In other words, instead of filling in from left, fill in from the right. Is Gravity the right thing to use in this context? How and where should I use it in the code?
Or any other better way of doing this?

Use a RelativeLayout instead of a LinearLayout. Set the LayoutParams of each View as follows:
// add the button onto the view
bubbleBtn = new ImageButton(this);
bubbleBtn.setId(1); // should set this using a ids.xml resource really.
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams bbLP = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
bbLP.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
bbLP.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
layout.addView(bubbleBtn, bbLP);
// create TextView for the title
TextView titleView = new TextView(this);
titleView.setText(title);
titleView.setGravity(Gravity.RIGHT);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams tvLP = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
tvLP.addRule(RelativeLayout.LEFT_OF, 1);
tvLP.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
layout.addView(titleView, tvLP);
