[android-developers] Adding padding between buttons in a LinearLayout

[Inderjeet Singh]

Hi,

I am probably missing something totally obvious, but can someone tell
me how to add padding between buttons of a LinearLayout?

Here is the code fragment from my layout xml file.
  <LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <Button android:id="@+id/first_button"
      style="@style/ButtonText"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:paddingLeft="10px"
      android:paddingRight="10px"
      android:text="First"/>

    <Button android:id="@+id/second_button"
      style="@style/ButtonText"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:paddingLeft="10px"
      android:paddingRight="10px"
      android:text="Second"/>
  </LinearLayout>

The buttons still appear closer together than what I would prefer. How
do I increase the spacing between the "First" and "Second" buttons?

Thanks
Inder
