Hello, I'm learning android and I have extremely limited programming experience or skills. Basically I want to have an activity whose layout kinda looks like the gmail inbox's layout. I want a textview on top, and a radio group of radio buttons in the middle and a row of buttons at the bottom, but I want the radio group to fill the space in between the text view on top and the row of buttons on the bottom.
I tried a LinearLayout with a TextView followed by a ScrollView with a RadioGroup with RadioButtons in it followed by a LinearLayout with the buttons in it. The moment I added too many radio buttons the linear layout with the buttons went past the edge of the screen. Then I tried the RelativeLayout with the ScrollView below the TextView and the LinearLayout with the buttons in it having the android:layout_alignParentBottom set to true. That puts the row of buttons at the bottom but the scrollview's height reaches the bottom of the screen and the radio buttons in it show up behind the row of buttons. I assume that I have to accomplish what I want programatically but I don't really know how to do that. I'm thinking that I have to at some point get the height of the textview and the linearlayout of buttons and set the height of the scrollview to height of the screen - (height of the textview + height of the linearlayout.) And that I'd probably do that in onDraw or onSizeChanged of the view and I'd have to make a new class extending textview or relativelayout that would have the new onSizeChanged that would resize the scrollview. Did I mention my limited skills? *sigh* Any assistance would be appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
