Seems like your intent is a side-by-side layout for a tablet device. I would recommend you use a top-level LinearLayout (orientation=horizontal), and give your two relative layouts layout_width="0dp" and layout_weight="1" (that's for a start, you can also experiment with layout_width="wrap_content" and other weight values).
You could also change the way you align two buttons side by side: instead of anchoring the right one, and setting layout_toLeftOf on the left one, try a more natural sequence. Set layout_alignParentLeft on the left one, and layout_toRightOf on the right one. This applies to all four left/right button pairs you have in the entire layout. -- Kostya 2011/1/23 Rutton <[email protected]> > Hello there, > > I am having a question regarding the layout of a RelativeLayout. > In a small test I have used a layout as this: > > <?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"> > > <RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/right_buttons" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:layout_alignParentRight="true" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"> > <Button android:id="@+id/ftopLeft" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="ftopLeft" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true" > android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/ > ftopRight"> > </Button> > <Button android:id="@+id/ftopRight" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="ftopRight" > android:layout_alignParentRight="true" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true"> > </Button> > <Button android:id="@+id/fbottomLeft" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="fbottomLeft" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" > android:layout_toLeftOf="@ > +id/fbottomRight"> > </Button> > <Button android:id="@+id/fbottomRight" > android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="fbottomRight" > android:layout_alignParentRight="true" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"> > </Button> > </RelativeLayout> > > <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true" > android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/right_buttons"> > <Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="stopLeft" > android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true"> > </Button> > <Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="stopRight" > android:layout_alignParentRight="true" > android:layout_alignParentTop="true"> > </Button> > <Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="sbottomLeft" > android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"> > </Button> > <Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="sbottomRight" > android:layout_alignParentRight="true" > android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"> > </Button> > </RelativeLayout> > > </RelativeLayout> > > Two RelativeLayouts within a single "full-screen" RelativeLayout. > (test only works in landscape on a large screen).
