Hi, I've got an activity that displays 5 GridViews. Each of these GridViews is divided by a text view with a background that spans the width of the screen. The GridViews represent a volume of books, and each item in the grid is a button representing a book in a volume. All the GridViews and TextViews sit inside a RelativeLayout. Some Volumes have many books and others just a few, so I've been trying to get the individual grid views to wrap_content and take up all the space they need to show all of their books, but no luck. The View equally divides space to each of the GridViews, hiding most of the books. I have my xml layout below. Can anyone tell me how I can get this done? I've tried dozens of approaches, all of which yeild the same results. thank you.
