I am attempting to create a simple UI that looks something like this
I am very new to android and have been trying different types of layouts (Linear/Relative) and I believe Linear may be the way to go here (I hope to make the amount of ListViews dynamic at some stage but for now 2 is fine).
Should I be using a Linear Layout or Relative layout, or some combination of both to achieve this.
Here is the XML which I have, I can't seem to get the button to align right, even though its gravity is set to right. I am open to any suggestions on how to fix this, or if there is a better way
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="1">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.9"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ListView
android:id="@+id/lv1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0"
/>
<ListView
android:id="@+id/lv2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.1"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="New Button"
android:id="@+id/button"
android:gravity="right" />
</LinearLayout>
edit : here is what the UI currently looks like
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/ll"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_marginTop="18dp"
android:layout_above="@+id/btnButton"
android:weightSum="2"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ListView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
</ListView>
<ListView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>
<Button
android:id="@+id/btnButton"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
