I don't make this stuff up. Try this one on for size: Take out the android:layout_alignParentRight="true" attribute from the "child" view and you'll see that the parent_layout reverts back to it's min_width of 280dp. But with that attribute set to true the parent_layout expands horizontally to fill its parent.
