I am trying to display a textview and 2 imageviews in an xml which to be used as a view for a list item in the ListView. It should be like this pattern:
TextView ImageView ImageView
But my imageviews are not getting displayed.
My layout file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="360dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/flowerName"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="@+id/shareImage"
android:src="@drawable/share"
/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="@+id/idImage"
android:src="@drawable/white_star"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
You should consider using weight.
Global layout would have a 100 weightSum
. TextView
a 90 weight
and your layout holding ImageView 10, with gravity
end.
Using Weight, you are sure all your view will be visible whatever the screen size is.
Something like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:weightSum="100">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="90"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:minHeight="50dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/flowerName"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="10"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="end"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="@+id/shareImage"
android:src="@drawable/share"/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="@+id/idImage"
android:src="@drawable/white_star"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
