Circular Buttons In Linearlayout:vertical

Post a Comment
I have created my own drawable object, which I am setting to be the background of an image button. (described here)

Solution 1:

Well. For one, all your layout_widths in the LinearLayouts children are set to match_parent. After the first child renders, then there won't be room for anything else because it will take up all the space.

Secondly, I would highly suggest against using all the tags. Instead I would just set padding (or margins) for your buttons.

Solution 2:

If I understand correctly, you want the Views inside the LinearLayout to be spaced with weight. If so, then android:layout_weight should be on each View and not the LinearLayout. The LinearLayout would have the android:weightSum and each View would have the weight of say 1. But you don't even need weightSum if you want them all spaced evenly.

<LinearLayout 
    android:id="@+id/left_bar"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:layout_weight="8">  // Try removing this and add weights to your views

I don't know if this will fix your problem but I would start with that

Solution 3:

I had the same problem. I had to have 4 circular buttons in a horizontal LinearLayout equally spaced.

<LinearLayoutandroid:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:orientation="horizontal"android:layout_marginBottom="10dp" ><Buttonandroid:id="@+id/btn1"style="@style/BotonCircular"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:layout_weight="0.2"android:background="@drawable/boton_circulo_negro" /><Viewandroid:layout_weight="0.033"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="match_parent"
            /><Buttonandroid:id="@+id/btn2"style="@style/BotonCircular"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:layout_weight="0.2"android:background="@drawable/boton_circulo_negro" /><Viewandroid:layout_weight="0.033"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="match_parent"
            /><Buttonandroid:id="@+id/btn3"style="@style/BotonCircular"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:layout_weight="0.2"android:background="@drawable/boton_circulo_negro" /><Viewandroid:layout_weight="0.033"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="match_parent"
            /><Buttonandroid:id="@+id/btn4"style="@style/BotonCircular"android:layout_width="0dp"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:layout_weight="0.2"android:background="@drawable/boton_circulo_negro" /></LinearLayout>

And to make them all of the same height I placed this code inside onCreate on my Activity

finalButtonbtn1= (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn1);
finalButtonbtn2= (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn2);
finalButtonbtn3= (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn3);
finalButtonbtn4= (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn4);
ViewTreeObservervto= btn1.getViewTreeObserver();
vto.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(newViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {

    @OverridepublicvoidonGlobalLayout() {
        btn1.setHeight(btn1.getWidth()); 
        btn2.setHeight(btn1.getWidth());    
        btn3.setHeight(btn1.getWidth());
        btn4.setHeight(btn1.getWidth());
    }
});

Hope this helps someone with the same problem.
