I see. Thanks Mark. That's frustrating, as View does some really useful things that I can't get other view types to do.
Basically I'm trying to set up a grid of buttons (say 4 * 4 for example), where the buttons are exactly equal in size, regardless of the text within them, and together fill the parent view. View is really good at filling its parent view, when used with layout_weight, but if I change them to LinearLayout I lose that control - the buttons start wrapping on the text, etc. I don't want to use specific widths and heights, as this won't be helpful when testing on different devices, but I want the buttons to naturally fit the available space with equal sizes.
