Dividing a Layout


I got the following activity

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fillViewport="true"
    android:background="@color/colorGray"
    tools:context=".ProductsActivity">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@+id/navigation"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"></LinearLayout>

    <android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
        android:id="@+id/navigation"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="?android:attr/windowBackground"
        app:itemIconTint="@drawable/btv_tab_item_foreground"
        app:itemTextColor="@drawable/btv_tab_item_foreground"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
        app:menu="@menu/navigation" />
 </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

Inside my LinearLayout, I want to add let's say 6 textviews or buttons or whatever and i want their

  • width equal to the parent's width
  • height, equal to each other

enter image description here

Something like the image above (the lines are not adjusted correctly cause they were drawn with MS Paint). But i think you got the point.


Solution

  • <LinearLayout
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:orientation="vertical">
    
         <TextView
            android:text="Register"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="0dp"
            android:padding="10dp"
            android:layout_weight="1" />
    
        // same code as above textView 5 more times 
    
      </LinearLayout>
