hi Mark, I had already tried the RelativeLayout, but with no success, then when i looked at my RelativeLayout attempt, i had android:layout_gravity="bottom" instead of android:layout_alignParentBottom="true".
But sorry to say this has failed to solve the problem. as soon as wrap the RelativeLayout with a ScrollView, then the layout is all scrambled again, and the image with the alignParentBottom stops to work!! Then i found this link, http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=26866, which basically says to have; <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:padding="10px"> <ScrollView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <RelativeLayout......> Your content here: textview and other components </RelativeLayout> </ScrollView> </LinearLayout> but that fails to work as well, the problem again is with android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" which isn't working. cheers, Simon On Oct 11, 1:17 am, Mark Murphy <[email protected]> wrote: > Simon wrote: > > I'm trying to create a simple view of a header image, few buttons, > > then footer image.
