Class Overview

A Layout that arranges its children in a single column or a single row. The direction of the row can be set by calling setOrientation(). You can also specify gravity, which specifies the alignment of all the child elements by calling setGravity() or specify that specific children grow to fill up any remaining space in the layout by setting the weight member of LinearLayout.LayoutParams. The default orientation is horizontal.

Also see android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams for layout attributes

XML Attributes

android:baselineAligned

When set to false, prevents the layout from aligning its children's baselines. This attribute is particularly useful when the children use different values for gravity. The default value is true.

Must be a boolean value, either "true" or "false".

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol baselineAligned.

Related Methods

setBaselineAligned(boolean)

android:baselineAlignedChildIndex

When a linear layout is part of another layout that is baseline aligned, it can specify which of its children to baseline align to (i.e which child TextView).

Must be an integer value, such as "100".

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol baselineAlignedChildIndex.

Related Methods

setBaselineAlignedChildIndex(int)

android:gravity

Specifies how to place an object, both its x and y axis, within a larger containing object.

Must be one or more (separated by '|') of the following constant values.

Constant	Value	Description
`top`	0x30	Push object to the top of its container, not changing its size.
`bottom`	0x50	Push object to the bottom of its container, not changing its size.
`left`	0x03	Push object to the left of its container, not changing its size.
`right`	0x05	Push object to the right of its container, not changing its size.
`center_vertical`	0x10	Place object in the vertical center of its container, not changing its size.
`fill_vertical`	0x70	Grow the vertical size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`center_horizontal`	0x01	Place object in the horizontal center of its container, not changing its size.
`fill_horizontal`	0x07	Grow the horizontal size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`center`	0x11	Place the object in the center of its container in both the vertical and horizontal axis, not changing its size.
`fill`	0x77	Grow the horizontal and vertical size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`clip_vertical`	0x80	Additional option that can be set to have the top and/or bottom edges of the child clipped to its container's bounds. The clip will be based on the vertical gravity: a top gravity will clip the bottom edge, a bottom gravity will clip the top edge, and neither will clip both edges.
`clip_horizontal`	0x08	Additional option that can be set to have the left and/or right edges of the child clipped to its container's bounds. The clip will be based on the horizontal gravity: a left gravity will clip the right edge, a right gravity will clip the left edge, and neither will clip both edges.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol gravity.

setGravity(int)

android:orientation

Should the layout be a column or a row? Use "horizontal" for a row, "vertical" for a column. The default is horizontal.

Must be one of the following constant values.

Constant	Value	Description
`horizontal`	0	Defines an horizontal widget.
`vertical`	1	Defines a vertical widget.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol orientation.

Public Constructors

public LinearLayout (Context context)

public LinearLayout (Context context, AttributeSet attrs)

Public Methods

public LinearLayout.LayoutParams generateLayoutParams (AttributeSet attrs)

Returns a new set of layout parameters based on the supplied attributes set.

Parameters

attrs	the attributes to build the layout parameters from

Returns

an instance of ViewGroup.LayoutParams or one of its descendants

public int getBaseline ()

Return the offset of the widget's text baseline from the widget's top boundary. If this widget does not support baseline alignment, this method returns -1.

Returns

the offset of the baseline within the widget's bounds or -1 if baseline alignment is not supported

public int getBaselineAlignedChildIndex ()

Returns

The index of the child that will be used if this layout is part of a larger layout that is baseline aligned, or -1 if none has been set.

public int getOrientation ()

Returns the current orientation.

Returns

either HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL

public float getWeightSum ()

Returns the desired weights sum.

Returns

A number greater than 0.0f if the weight sum is defined, or a number lower than or equals to 0.0f if not weight sum is to be used.

public boolean isBaselineAligned ()

Indicates whether widgets contained within this layout are aligned on their baseline or not.

Returns

true when widgets are baseline-aligned, false otherwise

public void setBaselineAligned (boolean baselineAligned)

Defines whether widgets contained in this layout are baseline-aligned or not.

Related XML Attributes

android:baselineAligned

Parameters

baselineAligned	true to align widgets on their baseline, false otherwise

public void setBaselineAlignedChildIndex (int i)

Related XML Attributes

android:baselineAlignedChildIndex

Parameters

i	The index of the child that will be used if this layout is part of a larger layout that is baseline aligned.

public void setGravity (int gravity)

Describes how the child views are positioned. Defaults to GRAVITY_TOP. If this layout has a VERTICAL orientation, this controls where all the child views are placed if there is extra vertical space. If this layout has a HORIZONTAL orientation, this controls the alignment of the children.

Related XML Attributes

android:gravity

Parameters

gravity	See Gravity

public void setHorizontalGravity (int horizontalGravity)

public void setOrientation (int orientation)

Should the layout be a column or a row.

Related XML Attributes

android:orientation

Parameters

orientation	Pass HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL. Default value is HORIZONTAL.

public void setVerticalGravity (int verticalGravity)

public void setWeightSum (float weightSum)

Defines the desired weights sum. If unspecified the weights sum is computed at layout time by adding the layout_weight of each child. This can be used for instance to give a single child 50% of the total available space by giving it a layout_weight of 0.5 and setting the weightSum to 1.0.

Parameters

weightSum	a number greater than 0.0f, or a number lower than or equals to 0.0f if the weight sum should be computed from the children's layout_weight

Protected Methods

protected boolean checkLayoutParams (ViewGroup.LayoutParams p)

protected LinearLayout.LayoutParams generateDefaultLayoutParams ()

Returns a set of layout parameters with a width of FILL_PARENT and a height of WRAP_CONTENT when the layout's orientation is VERTICAL. When the orientation is HORIZONTAL, the width is set to WRAP_CONTENT and the height to WRAP_CONTENT.

Returns

a set of default layout parameters or null

protected LinearLayout.LayoutParams generateLayoutParams (ViewGroup.LayoutParams p)

Returns a safe set of layout parameters based on the supplied layout params. When a ViewGroup is passed a View whose layout params do not pass the test of checkLayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams), this method is invoked. This method should return a new set of layout params suitable for this ViewGroup, possibly by copying the appropriate attributes from the specified set of layout params.

Parameters

p	The layout parameters to convert into a suitable set of layout parameters for this ViewGroup.

Returns

an instance of ViewGroup.LayoutParams or one of its descendants

protected void onLayout (boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b)

Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. Derived classes with children should override this method and call layout on each of their their children.

Parameters

changed	This is a new size or position for this view
l	Left position, relative to parent
t	Top position, relative to parent
r	Right position, relative to parent
b	Bottom position, relative to parent

protected void onMeasure (int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)

Measure the view and its content to determine the measured width and the measured height. This method is invoked by measure(int, int) and should be overriden by subclasses to provide accurate and efficient measurement of their contents.

CONTRACT: When overriding this method, you must call setMeasuredDimension(int, int) to store the measured width and height of this view. Failure to do so will trigger an IllegalStateException, thrown by measure(int, int). Calling the superclass' onMeasure(int, int) is a valid use.

The base class implementation of measure defaults to the background size, unless a larger size is allowed by the MeasureSpec. Subclasses should override onMeasure(int, int) to provide better measurements of their content.

If this method is overridden, it is the subclass's responsibility to make sure the measured height and width are at least the view's minimum height and width (getSuggestedMinimumHeight() and getSuggestedMinimumWidth()).

Parameters

widthMeasureSpec	horizontal space requirements as imposed by the parent. The requirements are encoded with View.MeasureSpec.
heightMeasureSpec	vertical space requirements as imposed by the parent. The requirements are encoded with View.MeasureSpec.
