I have an ImageButton and I want to show a text and an image on it. But when I try on emulator:
<ImageButton
android:text="OK"
android:id="#+id/buttonok"
android:src="#drawable/buttonok"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
I get the image but without the text. How can I show the text? Please help me!
As you can't use android:text I recommend you to use a normal button and use one of the compound drawables. For instance:
<Button
android:id="#+id/buttonok"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/buttonok"
android:text="OK"/>
You can put the drawable wherever you want by using: drawableTop, drawableBottom, drawableLeft or drawableRight.
UPDATE
For a button this too works pretty fine. Putting android:background is fine!
<Button
android:id="#+id/fragment_left_menu_login"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/button_bg"
android:text="#string/login_string" />
I just had this issue and is working perfectly.
It is technically possible to put a caption on an ImageButton if you really want to do it. Just put a TextView over the ImageButton using FrameLayout. Just remember to not make the Textview clickable.
Example:
<FrameLayout>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/button_x"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#null"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:src="#drawable/button_graphic" >
</ImageButton>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:clickable="false"
android:text="TEST TEST" >
</TextView>
</FrameLayout>
Guys I need to develop the setting and logout button, I used the below code.
<Button
android:id="#+id/imageViewLogout"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/size_30dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:text="Settings"
android:drawablePadding="10dp"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:drawableTop="#drawable/logout" />
Actually, android:text is not an argument accepted by ImageButton
but, If you're trying to get a button with a specified background (not android default) use the android:background xml attribute, or declare it from the class with .setBackground();
I solved this by putting the ImageButton and TextView inside a LinearLayout with vertical orientation. Works great!
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linLayout"
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/camera_ibtn"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/camera" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="#string/take_pic"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
You can use a LinearLayout instead of using Button it's an arrangement i used in my app
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="20dp"
android:background="#color/mainColor"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="10dp">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_cv"
android:textColor="#color/offBack"
android:textSize="20dp" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:text="#string/cartyCv"
android:textColor="#color/offBack"
android:textSize="25dp" />
</LinearLayout>
you can use a regular Button and the android:drawableTop attribute (or left, right, bottom) instead.
Best way:
<Button
android:text="OK"
android:id="#+id/buttonok"
android:background="#drawable/buttonok"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
Heres a nice circle example:
drawable/circle.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<solid
android:color="#ff87cefa"/>
<size
android:width="60dp"
android:height="60dp"/>
</shape>
And then the button in your xml file:
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_send"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:background="#drawable/circle"
android:text="OK"/>
Here is the solution
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/buttons_line1"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_mute"
android:src="#drawable/btn_mute"
android:background="#drawable/circle_gray"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_keypad"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:src="#drawable/btn_dialpad"
android:background="#drawable/circle_gray"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_speaker"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:src="#drawable/btn_speaker"
android:background="#drawable/circle_gray"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_below="#+id/buttons_line1"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:text="mute"
android:clickable="false"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:textColor="#color/Grey"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<TextView
android:text="keypad"
android:clickable="false"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:textColor="#color/Grey"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<TextView
android:text="speaker"
android:clickable="false"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:textColor="#color/Grey"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>
Best way to show Text on button(with image)
Your Question: How to show text on imagebutton?
Answer: You can not display text with imageButton. Method that tell in Accepted answer also not work.
because
If you use android:drawableLeft="#drawable/buttonok" then you can not set drawable in center of button.
If you use android:background="#drawable/button_bg" then color of your drawable will be changed.
In android world there are thousands of option to do this. But here i provide best alternate according to my point of view. (see below)
Solution: Use cardView with LinearLayout
Your drawable/image use in LinearLayout because it shows in center. And with help of textView you can set text on this. We makes cardView background to transparent.
<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="99dp"
android:layout_margin="16dp"
app:cardBackgroundColor="#android:color/transparent"
app:cardElevation="0dp"
app:cardUseCompatPadding="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/your_selected_image"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:text="Happy Coding"
android:textSize="33sp"
android:gravity="center"
>
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
</androidx.cardview.widget.CardView>
here i explain some terms:
app:cardBackgroundColor="#android:color/transparent" for make transparent background of cardView
app:cardElevation="0dp" for hide evelation lines around cardView
app:cardUseCompatPadding="true" its provide actual size of cardView. Always use this when you use cardView
set your image/drawable in LinearLayout as a background.
Sorry, for my Bad English.
Happy Coding:)
ImageButton can't have text (or, at least, android:text isn't listed in its attributes).
The Trick is:
It looks like you need to use Button (and look at drawableTop or setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(int,int,int,int)).

I want to have a button like this.
It's basically a Text: NEXT with a Chevron on the right side.
I already tried a button with transparent background and android:drawableRight, but the padding of the drawable was looking weird.
How can I achieve the wanted look?
What I have so far:
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Next"
android:textColor="#color/colorAccent"
android:drawableRight="#drawable/chevron_right"
android:background="#00000000"/>
/Sorry for posting a link and not the photo directly, but my reputations aren't high enough./
You can do it using a FrameLayout/RelativeLayout containing the ImageButton and an horizontal LinearLayout/RelativeLayout which contains the text and the chevron image aligned to the right. Something like this:
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fl_btn_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imbtn_btn_bg"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"
android:src="#drawable/white_drawable" />
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_btn_text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:text="#string/next" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/tv_btn_text"
android:src="#drawable/chevron" />
</RelativeLayout>
</FrameLayout>
This example is from my app, probably you'll need to adapt it.
Have you tried setting the spaces between the views of chevron and borders with negative values of dp .
I had a similar problem last year and a proper combination of positive and negative dp fixed it
You can use android:drawablePadding="8dp" to set the padding between the text and the drawable.
I'm not sure what you want but that's how I will do the button you attached
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:background="#color/colorAccent"
android:layout_height="40dp">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="NEXT"/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#android:drawable/arrow_up_float"/>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
I am using the EditText with drawableLeft property and set ImageView in Right side for ClearText. My Question is how to put gap between text and Imageview in EditText?
Please help me.
Actually I have Like this,My Screenshot is,
Actually I want to Like this,
Create Gap Between Text and ImageView. How it is Possible?.
My xml file is,
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edtSearch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:src="#drawable/clear" />
</RelativeLayout>
Okay i got your Question now...you have to use Search view instead of edittext
Here is link:- Check it out
Only this is a solution of your problem
i am using LinearLayout for this
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linear"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/chatText"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:padding="8dp" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/buttonSend"
android:layout_width="50sp"
android:layout_height="50sp"
android:padding="5dp"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
Had the same problem a while ago fixed it with drawablePadding
Hello
Use Linear layout with weight instead of Relative as m showing below:-
<LinearLayout
width
hight
orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/edtSearch"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.8"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dip"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/search"
android:drawablePadding="10dip"
android:hint="Find"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:inputType="text"
android:singleLine="true" >
</EditText>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imgSearchClear"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.8"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:src="#drawable/clear" />
</LinearLayout>
if you found any issue regarding this please let me know..i love to help you
or in relative layou you can use drawable padding
Spartacus thanks :)
I can try to implement your code but It Like this,
and I want to Like this,
Set the right padding of EditText to the width of Clear button. Set all the dimension in dimen folder so that it will be compatible with all device sizes.
I want to place an image button inside of EditText, but I don't have Idea please tell me how to do so as shown in the figure . Thanks
If You dont want click on that Image, Then you can use drawableRight property for EditText..
android:drawableRight="#drawable/icon"
If you want click then use 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="wrap_content" >
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Enter search key" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:src="#drawable/search"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:text="Button"/>
</RelativeLayout>
If you want such layout and also image as clickable then you can do something like this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true" >
</EditText>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:padding="5dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/editText1"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</RelativeLayout>
Output:
In Material, there is that underline under EditText. In most applications the icons appear inside that underlining.
For that purpose, just use padding
android:paddingEnd = "#dimen/my_button_size"
Don't forget paddingRight for sub 4.2 versions.
<RelativeLayout ....>
...
<EditText
...
android:id="#+id/my_text_edit"
android:textAlignment = "viewStart"
android:paddingEnd = "#dimen/my_button_size"
android:paddingRight = "#dimen/my_button_size"
.../>
<ImageButton
....
android:layout_width="#dimen/my_button_size"
android:layout_height="#dimen/my_button_size"
android:layout_alignEnd="#id/my_text_edit"
android:layout_alignRight="#id/my_text_edit"/>
...
</RelativeLayout>
It will limit the text to the image and the image will not overlap the text, however long the text may be.
My solution will fit all screen sizes without the editText going "behind" the imageButton. This also uses android resources, so you do not need to provide your own icon or string resource. Copy and paste this snippet wherever you would like a search bar:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:id="#+id/etSearch"
android:hint="#android:string/search_go"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/ivSearch"
android:background="#color/transparent_black"
android:padding="2dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
tools:ignore="contentDescription" />
</LinearLayout>
Restult:
you can Use the Below Code :
android:drawableRight="#android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
How about placing it in a RelativeLayout like this ?:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<!-- EditText for Search -->
<EditText android:id="#+id/inputSearch"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Search whatever..."
android:textSize="14dp"
android:textStyle="italic"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/magnifyingglass"
android:inputType="textVisiblePassword"
android:theme="#style/EditTextColorCustom"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_clear"
android:layout_width="14dp"
android:layout_height="14dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/inputSearch"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
android:background="#drawable/xbutton"
android:visibility="gone"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Also this way you´ll be able to handle the visibility of the Button (GONE / VISIBLE) in code.
Hope it helps.
Place your EditText inside a linear layout (horizontal) and add a Image Button next to it (0 padding). Setting the background color of EditText and ImageButton will blend in.
There's solution with clickable compound drawable. It's working very well - I have tested it
SOLUTION
This is pretty simple I feel. Use relative layout as your parent layout.
Place the editText to left and ImageButton to the right using either,
alignRight property for the ImageButton
by specifying the layout weight for each of the fields
In the accepted answer the ripple effect doesn't work, it stays behind the button in the back.
This example has 2 buttons in the textbox.
The ripple effect works because the parent layout has
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
To make sure the ripple works and doesn't stay on the back, set the imagebutton's parent background to transparent.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:layout_margin="4dp">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText"
style="#android:style/TextAppearance.Medium"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="2dp"
android:layout_marginTop="2dp"
android:layout_marginRight="2dp"
android:background="#drawable/shape_textbox"
android:hint="text"
android:imeOptions="actionDone"
android:importantForAutofill="no"
android:inputType="text" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn1"
android:layout_width="44dp"
android:layout_height="44dp"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:layout_toStartOf="#+id/btn2"
android:background="?android:selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
android:src="#drawable/ic_btn1" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn2"
android:layout_width="44dp"
android:layout_height="44dp"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:background="?android:selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
android:contentDescription="#string/clear"
android:src="#drawable/ic_btn2" />
</RelativeLayout>
Or you can also wrap your button in a frame layout:
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
>
<ImageButton ... />
</FrameLayout>
I don't know why you want to place ImageButton to achieve, which can be done with simple property of EditText
android:drawableRight="your drawable"
Can't it be work for you?
Use the android:drawableLeft property on the EditText.
<EditText
...
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/my_icon" />
Searched all day and came up with a poor solution i think.
i want three ImageButton placed on the right sida of the screen.
Not centered but just above center position..
With the code below i get the result i want but,
If the user have a bigger screen they will not have this position right?
I have tried the android:gravityall day and all i can do with it is
to center the three buttons very nicely.
What should i use to make the three buttons always stay at the positions that
they are on the image belove.
i have the button image in 3 different sizes in hdpi,mdpi,xhdpi folder.
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/rightRelativeLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_A"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="100dp"
android:text="A"
android:src="#drawable/drawer_1"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_B"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"

android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/btn_A"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:text="C"
android:src="#drawable/drawer_1"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/btn_B"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
Picture of the three buttons placed on the right side, and my daughter of course.
One option would be to put all three buttons within a LinearLayout (for simplicity's sake) and then set the layout of this container programmatically.
You can see the size of the screen using getResources().getDisplayMetrics().heightPizels and then set the top margin accordingly.
You could add a LinearLayout inside the RelativeLayout, and then use the following properties on the LinearLayout:
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
EDIT: Ok, I've done some testing and found a way of doing what you want without the use of styling it programatically, here's the xml:
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/rightRelativeLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginBottom="80dip"
>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true">
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_A"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="A"
android:src="#drawable/icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_B"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="B"
android:src="#drawable/icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_C"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="C"
android:src="#drawable/icon"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
i want to display text on image view.
Not sure how much this would apply but if you're trying to do this (pseudo code):
<LinearLayout>
<TextView />
<ImageView />
</LinearLayout>
As you're discovering, you'll have issues doing that, if you change it to be this though:
<LinearLayout Background="YourImagePath">
<TextView />
</LinearLayout>
You'll probably find that easier.
Assuming that you're not after creating a derived type and painting yourself as others are suggesting.
This worked for me inside a RelativeLayout
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image_ct"
android:src="#drawable/categories_bill"
android:scaleType="center"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/catdescription_ct"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Sample Description"
android:layout_alignTop="#id/image_ct"
android:textColor="#000000" />
you'll have to subclass it and overload the onDraw method, then draw on the graphic context using the paintString method.
or just overlay a label over the ImageView
You can create a new class derived from ImageView. Override the onDraw method, drawing the parent class first and then your own text.
Couldn't he just put an ImageView and a TextView in a RelativeLayout and set the layout_align properties of one of them to reference the other view so they will simply overlap each other or am I missing something? Seems more simple to me.
Best Option to use text and image in a single view try this:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
**android:drawableBottom="#drawable/ic_launcher"**
android:text="TextView" />
That's how I did it and it worked exactly as you asked for:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/myImageSouce" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/myImageViewText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_margin="1dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Hello"
android:textColor="#000000" />
PS: Only works inside a RelativeLayout
You can also try just TextView with image
<TextView
app:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:drawableTop="#drawable/icon"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:text="Icon"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:textStyle="bold" >
</TextView>
I stuck together several ways, and that's work for me, with the text centered in the image inside RelativeLayout.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/grid_item_image"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:contentDescription="line"
android:src="#drawable/tile1" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/grid_item_text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:text="Line 1"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</RelativeLayout>
