You can create widget objects: Button btn1=new Button(this); and add them to containers (subclasses of ViewGroup, like LinearLayout). The add() method on containers usually takes a LayoutParams structure, where you can specify the details that, in XML, you might express via layout_ attributes (e.g., android:layout_gravity). You can also inflate a widget, or a tree of widgets, from XML through the use of LayoutInflater, allowing you to describe the widgets in XML but still control when they get created and how they get used from Java. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.9 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
