I have a HorizontalScrollView and now I want to add an image at the top of the layout with a button next to it in parallel. The problem is that I'm a little lost on how to align all this. It should be something like this.
[Image] [ImageButton]
[HorizontalScrollView]
As what I have now overlapped images together. What should I change?
<RelativeLayout 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:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:background="@color/black" >
<HorizontalScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="false"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/carrusel"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
</LinearLayout>
</HorizontalScrollView>
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="false"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/imageButton1"
android:src="@drawable/top" />
<ImageButton
android:id="@+id/imageButton1"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_marginTop="26dp"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:src="@drawable/info" />
</RelativeLayout>
There are a few different ways to do this. From your code here, looks like the easiest thing would be to move your HorizontalScrollView below the ImageButton (So your R file knows it exists) and set
<HorizontalScrollView
...
android:layout_below="@id/imageButton1"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
... />
You could also put your image and button in a linear layout and then set the horizontalscrollview below the linear layout and align it
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/linlay_image_and_button"
...
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ImageView ... />
<ImageButton .../>
</LinearLayout>
<HorizontalScrollView
...
android:layout_below="@id/linlay_image_and_button"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
... >
</HorizontalScrollView>
This second approach lets you use android:layout_weight in a linear layout to size the image and button to take up different amounts of the screen (1/3, 2/3) etc
