Re: [android-developers] How come LinearLayout doesn't seem to measure wrap_content properly
LinearLayout is doing the right thing. wrap_content results in an AT_MOST MeasureSpec. If you are writing a custom view that extends the base View class you really should override onMeasure().

Re: [android-developers] How come LinearLayout doesn't seem to measure wrap_content properly
Does wrap_content always result in AT_MOST? If it says 411 pixles at most, I would have thought I will take all of it because I could use that. I would not have thought to give back my content size. Just thinking aloud. what will match_parent do? Does that come in as EXACT, matching the size of the parent? Thank you so much for your help. It saved me hours of agony that I am about to jump into ...

Re: [android-developers] How come LinearLayout doesn't seem to measure wrap_content properly
When you receive an AT_MOST mesure spec you can return any size you want as long as it's = to the MeasureSpec's size. match_parent is indeed EXACTLY + size of the parent.
