How to fill the screen with only one element?

I want to make an activity with 2 elements in the screen, one in the bottom, with a fixed size, and one on top of this which one must fill the screen.

Desired layout

How I can do that in a Layout?

Thank you

  • Use below code:

    <LinearLayout 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:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="@string/hello_world" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView2"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="test" />



</LinearLayout>
