Android: Tablelayout with relative layouts contained within? - android

I have an xml layout that compiles fine but when I used the intent to change to the new view it force closes. I'm almost positive it has to do with my use of table and relative layouts. It's kind of a frankenstien monster of coding, haha. Please let me know if how I can remedy this force close problem. Also, before I had strickly table layout. With this layout it compiled and was fully functional, just not as a pretty. So the java should be fine (theoretically).
CODE:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout android:id="#+id/tableLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:background="#FFFFF0">
<RelativeLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#drawable/banner"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="50sp" android:gravity="center" >
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/tableTitle" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="#999">
<TextView android:id="#+id/ListingsTitle" android:text="Title: "
android:textColor="#000" android:textStyle="bold" android:textSize="20sp" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/sellingprice" android:layout_width="wrap_content"

</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#FFFFF0"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageButton android:id="#+id/PhotoGallerybtn"
android:src="#drawable/icon" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"></ImageButton>
<Button android:text="Email the Dealer" android:id="#+id/EmailDealerbtn" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"

<Button android:text="Add to Favs" android:id="#+id/Favsbtn" android:layout_below="#id/PhotoGallerybtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_toRightOf="#id/EmailDealerbtn"></Button>
<Button android:text="Share" android:id="#+id/Sharebtn" android:mimeType="image/*"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="#id/PhotoGallerybtn" android:layout_toRightOf="#id/Favsbtn"></Button>
</RelativeLayout>
<TableRow android:id="#+id/tableRow4" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="#999">

android:textColor="#000" android:textStyle="bold" android:textSize="20sp" />
</TableRow>
<TextView android:id="#+id/bodystyle" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textColor="#000"
android:text="Body Style:"></TextView>
<TextView android:id="#+id/color" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textColor="#000"
android:text="Color:"></TextView>
<TextView android:id="#+id/doors" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textColor="#000"
android:text="Doors:"></TextView>

<TextView android:id="#+id/vin" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textColor="#000"
android:text="VIN:"></TextView>
</TableLayout>

You should add layout_width and layout_height fields to your TextView with #+id/ListingsTitle id:
<TextView android:id="#+id/ListingsTitle" android:text="Title: "
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#000"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textSize="20sp" />

Properly align images and text in relative layout?

I've a shop layout in which are three different sized images. To the right of them, there is text representing price. How can I align images and text under each other ? And put the middle of the screen between Image and text. Here is my layout:
<?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/podklad">
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/lives"
android:focusable="false" android:background="#drawable/heart_image"
android:layout_below="#+id/money" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price1"
android:textSize="30sp" android:textColor="#ff000000"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/lives" android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/lives"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/lives"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/money" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true" android:textSize="40dp" android:textColor="#ff000000"/>
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/monstertoprightcolored"
android:id="#+id/hardmode"
android:layout_centerVertical="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price2"
android:textSize="30dp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/hardmode"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/hardmode"
android:layout_above="#+id/price3"/>
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/monsterbottomleftcolored"
android:id="#+id/reversedmode"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/hardmode"
android:layout_alignStart="#+id/hardmode"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price3"
android:textSize="30dp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
android:layout_marginTop="26dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/hardmode"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/price2"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/price2"/>
A TableLayout might work better in this case. Here's a start to what your layout would look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout 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"
android:stretchColumns="*">
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_span="2"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:id="#+id/money"
android:textSize="40dp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
tools:text="money" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/lives"
android:focusable="false"
android:background="#drawable/heart_image"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price1"
android:textSize="30sp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
tools:text="price1" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/monstertoprightcolored"
android:id="#+id/hardmode" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price2"
android:textSize="30dp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
tools:text="price2" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/monsterbottomleftcolored"
android:id="#+id/reversedmode" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:id="#+id/price3"
android:textSize="30dp"
android:textColor="#ff000000"
android:layout_marginTop="26dp"
tools:text="price3" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
Note that in order to "put the middle of the screen between Image and text", the two columns have to be equal in width. This is done by setting android:stretchColumns="*" in the TableLayout, and setting android:layout_width="0dp" and android:layout_weight="1" in the children of the TableRows.
See tablelayout - Set equal width of columns in table layout in Android for more info.
You can use linear layouts for this. Image and text can be split vertically in a linear layout. Each of this linear layout can be placed horizontally. Can you add a screenshot of how your layout should look for better understanding.
Here try this ,hope to help you, and i hope that i understand your problem correctly.

Android nested linear layout

I am following tutorial from the book "Android Apps for Absolute Beginners 3rd Edition", and I am stuck with nested LinearLayout for android project in API 19 (4.4.2): Parent LinearLayout is horizontal and it is supposed to hold two child LinearLayout which are vertical and the end result should be like this:
But what I get is:
I tried several times, cross checked code in book, and explanations but I can't get it right.
Here is content of activity_main.xml:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:background="#drawable/galaxyinfoscreen" >
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_margin="12dip"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#00000000">
<TextView android:text="#string/hello_world" android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="48dip" android:textStyle="bold" />

"Glaxy Information Screen" TextView is inside first verical LinearLayout. As this text view is taking more space due to its margin and text length hence leaving less space for second linearlayout, resulting into wrap of text for sencond verical layout.
To solve the problem, add one more linear layout with orientation as horizontal as parent of both the vertical layout and add the "Glaxy Information Screen" text view as direct child of top parent.
you may need to make some adjustment to the margin values to aling the layouts.
In the second LinearLayout, the margin parameter is android:layout_marginTop="33dip
You forgot to put Top after margin.
;)
The second LinearLayout doesn't have enough width to accommodate the string and it gets wrapped. If you absolutely must use nested LinearLayout, you should use layout_weight instead of using width with wrapped content. In the example below, I have also moved the title out of the nested LinearLayout to another vertical one.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

With your current code i have two suggestions:
First:
android:singleLine="true"
add this tag to all your list views, so this will maintain symmetry in all your textView placement.
Secondly:
Keep a single Parent LinearLayout with orientation vertical, then have multiple LinearLayout with horizontal orientation and two TextView inside it.

TextView in relative layout doesn't expand to fill available space

why does the gray box (transaction_amount) in the following layout doesn't expand to full space available even though the layout:height is match parent for it.
<TextView android:id="#+id/transaction_amount"
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Large"
android:textColor="#android:color/primary_text_light"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_rectangle"
tools:text="100"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/transaction_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/transaction_amount"
android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Medium"
android:textColor="#android:color/secondary_text_light"
tools:text="Mast Kalandar Dinner"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/shared_bw_label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignStart="#id/transaction_name"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/transaction_amount"
android:layout_below="#id/transaction_name"
android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Small"
android:textColor="#android:color/secondary_text_light_nodisable"
android:text="Shared Between"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/shared_bw_csv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/shared_bw_label"
android:layout_alignBaseline="#id/shared_bw_label"
android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Small"
android:textColor="#android:color/secondary_text_light_nodisable"
tools:text="Ashu, Amol"/>
Try this layout instead, im sure it will help you.

Fixed horizontal ScrollView above ListFragment

I am displaying a list using a custom ListFragment. The fragment inflates a layout and works fine. I want to add a horizontal scrollView above the fragment to act as a category menu. It must be fixed, so addHeaderView is not acceptable.
I found a layout example here on SO and plugged it into my layout to see how it could be made to work. But in its current form below, it does what you would expect - puts a horizontal scrollview in every entry on the list.
So how do I share a screen with a static view on top and the listfragment below.
Here is the layout that does not work - as I mentioned the Scrollview part is not mine and is only included as an example. The relativelayout at the bottom makes the actual list

android text in table gets cut off

I've been looking for an answer to this for a long long long time.
I have the following code:
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow106"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:visibility="gone"
android:background="#drawable/b02_light_bar">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/button35"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/b02_play_blue"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView20"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:text="#string/interaction2"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView21"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#41c4dd"
android:text="#string/interaction2cont"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</TableRow>
And my text in textview21 still gets cut off if it is too long.
Anyone know how to solve this?
I promise you, I tried everything!
I have copied your code and string and yes the problem is there..
I got one solution for you and that's
Remove android:padding="10dp" from TableRow tag and apply that in the LinearLayout right under the tableRow.
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow106"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:visibility="gone"
android:background="#drawable/b02_light_bar">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button35"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/b02_play_blue"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView20"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:text="#string/interaction2"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView21"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#41c4dd"
android:text="#string/interaction2cont"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</TableRow>
use the attribute android:maxLines="3"
Change your textview to
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView21"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#41c4dd"
android:maxLines="3"
android:text="#string/interaction2cont"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
