Step #1: Get rid of the LinearLayout, since you do not appear to need it Step #2: Get rid of the android:orientation="horizontal" from the RelativeLayout, since orientation is not a valid attribute for RelativeLayout
Step #3: Give your first Button an android:id value, so we can refer to it from within the XML Step #4: Have your middle Button anchor itself to the other two (android:layout_toRightOf="..." and android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/btnLocate") Step #5: Remove the + sign from @+id/btnLocate in the last Button, since ideally you only use the + sign on the first occurrence of the ID value in the layout file, and step #4 refers to btnLocate first On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 8:11 AM, Laurent Lugon Moulin <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I want to put three buttons in one single line with the left and the right > button at a fixed size, and the middle button wich take the distance between > the two buttons.
