Something like this may work ( I haven't checked - but you get the idea) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/blankscreen" > <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/hello" /> <Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentBottom ="true" android:text="@string/btn_start_game" /> </RelativeLayout> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
