Tudor,
You should try using a RelativeLayout as the only Layout tag in the list
item. It's certainly powerful enough to arrange both text and image the
way you intend.
Off top of my head:
For the TextView -
layout_alignParentLeft="true"
layout_width="wrap_content"
and margins, if any
For the ImageView -
layout_alignParentRight="true"
layout_centerVertical="true"
and margins, if any
You can try for the TextView -
layout_marginRight= <value in dips based on image view width>
ellipsize= <"end" or "marquee">
This way the text view will grow depending on screen width (including
orientation changes).

That partly works. I made the inner layout a relative one and put the
alignment of the image as suggested. If I fix the max width of the
text item to 285dip then it will look nice in the portrait view. But
that means I'd have to make a ton of adjustments for each screen
aspect/size.
Any way to have it hide the text automatically?

Tudor,
You can use RelativeLayout, and set
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" in the image.

Hi guys and gals,
I am having a very difficult time with making complex listview items
show properly.
I am using the following layout xml for the item:
<code><source>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView android:id="@+id/TextView01"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="18dip"
android:layout_marginTop="4dip"
android:layout_marginBottom="4dip"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip" android:text="sdf asdf asdf sdfghsdf
sdfg sdfgsd fsd fgdsfg sdfg sdfg sdfg sdf" android:lines="1"></
TextView>
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/zero_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="right|
center_vertical">
<ImageButton android:id="@+id/ImageButton01"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/double_right_arrow_24x22"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"></ImageButton>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</source></code>
The idea is to put a text (this item is a child of an expandable list
view item) and a simple arrow icon to the right of the item. The
problem is that with longer text, the icon doesn't show up, probably
having been pushed to the right outside the screen. Is there a way to
make sure I can solve this in a device independent way from the layout
only? Ideally the text should ellipsize and scroll in the textview, If
not possible, then it should cut off a few pixels before the icon.
How can I do this. Please help me asap, I am having problems
understanding how each layout settings affect the position. Speaking
of which, is there a comparison with options for each layout, item
position combinations other than the API Demos source code?
