How to set weight for width and height?

Question

I need to create view dynamical with width and height which are the percent of parent size.So I need to add weight for width and height for one view. Is it possible?

Answer 1

For example, I have the below layout:

<LinearLayout
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/ll_forImage"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">
        <ImageView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />    
    </LinearLayout>
    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/ll_forList"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">
        <ListView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

        </ListView>    
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Now, I will set width and height for each View depend on Screen width and Screen Height.

int screenWidth = dpToPx(getResources().getConfiguration().screenWidthDp);
int screenHeight = dpToPx(getResources().getConfiguration().screenHeightDp);
int ratioW = ....;//
int ratioH = ....;//
setLayoutSize(ll_forImage, screenWidth/ratioW , screenHeight/ratioH );
setLayoutSize(ll_forList, screenWidth/ratioW , screenHeight - screenHeight/ratioH );
// You can use setTranslation to translate View to expected position.

with:

private int dpToPx(int dp) {
    return (int) (dp * getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density + 0.5f);
}

private static void setLayoutSize(View view, int width, int height) {
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = view.getLayoutParams();
    params.width = width;
    params.height = height;
    view.setLayoutParams(params);
}
