i have 2 items in a relative layout that i want to put side by side,the User icon and the username, at the moment i have the user icon where i want but the username is always right at the side with no margin, i need some margin left so i can have a litle space between each other, and i tried with margin left but it didn't work.
here is the xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

I have found too issues with your code:
You have both android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/userIcon" and android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/userIcon" attributes set in your username view, which makes no sense. You should replace android:layout_toLeftOf with android:layout_toRightOf if you want it to be to the right of the userIcon view.
You are setting the left position of the username view with the android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/userIcon" attribute, that's why android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" has no effect. You can use android:paddingLeft="20dp" instead.
Let me know if it helps.

I've got an issue with my TextView, I just can't center it. Here's what it should look like :
And it's actually look like that
Here's my XML code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cityNameTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/dateTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
Using a LinearLayout with horizontal orientation along with a weightsum of 3 for the children text view would give you a light and more reliable solution, doing it like the following:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:weightSum="3"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="test"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cityNameTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="test"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/dateTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
</LinearLayout>
Now each of your text views will take exactly 1/3 of the whole screen width, if you want the center one to be bigger you can play with the layout_weight value in each of the text view to match your desired design.
Instead of RelativeLayout you can use LinearLayout in which you can set the weightsum to 3 that will give you more reliable solution. Every TextView will get the equal amount of space in a row.
The Below technique work for me.That is:
Use your first TextView as left orient and middle TextView as center oriented and last TextView as right oriented and apply weight for each TextView.
Your code it would be like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Linearlayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
orientation=vertical
weightsum=3
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp"
android:layout_weight=1 />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cityNameTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp"
android:layout_weight=1/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/dateTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp"
android:layout_weight=1/>
</LinearLayout>
`
A horizontal LinearLayout would provide a better and lighter solution for your problem. What you'd do is wrap your three textviews in it, then use layout_width=wrap_content for the ones to the left and right and layout_width=0dp
layout_weight=1
for the middle one
Generally, a linear layout with weights would suit these kinds of needs, the system will automatically divide the screen into parts depending on the weightsum you mentioned
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:weightSum = "5"
android:orientation = "horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight = "1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cityNameTV"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight = "3"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/dateTV"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight = "1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:textSize="15sp" />
</LinearLayout>
You can achieve this by doing this :
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:text="sdf34 "
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/cityNameTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/magnitudeTV"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:text="dasdasdsadasdds"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="15sp" />
<TextView
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/cityNameTV"
android:id="#+id/dateTV"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:text="fg25111dfg"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="15sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
but according to me it is not a good solution for this you can con-catenate all the three strings and than set the final string to one single text view as mentioned below:
String final_string = distance +" "+string_2 +" "+string_3;
textView.setText(final_string);

I want to align the icons and text in the text views on the same line and with the same size. my question is that how do i do this? please point out my errors and help me with fixing this.
If this is what you want, then you just need change gravity from
android:gravity="center" to android:gravity="center_vertical"
Please add gravity property to your TextView with center alignment and
icon size change with 24dp.
<TextView android:text="Event Planning and Decoration, Beads and Jewelry Making, Props and Bridals, Aso-Oke #WeMakePoshDesign"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/about"
android:layout_below="#+id/topImage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:drawablePadding="5dp"
android:padding="10dp"
android:textSize="16dp"

It seems you want to use a compound drawable, see this answer:
How do I use a compound drawable instead of a LinearLayout that contains an ImageView and a TextView
I am trying to do a menu exactly like CandyCrush's: Two buttons (play and connect) in the center and then right at the bottom left, there's another button (the CC's arrow). I manage to position the first to buttons, but I am unable to position the last one at the bottom left of my activity. How can I position it? This is my xml and I use Relative Layout.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/balao"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:background="#null"
android:maxWidth="200dp"
android:maxHeight="180dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="35dp"
android:src="#drawable/balao" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/play"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:maxWidth="80dp"
android:maxHeight="80dp"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_below="#+id/balao"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:src="#drawable/playbutton" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/tutor"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/play"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:maxWidth="50dp"
android:maxHeight="50dp"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:src="#drawable/tutor" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/corner"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:src="#drawable/corner"/>
</RelativeLayout>
For last button, use android:layout_width="wrap_content" instead of android:layout_width="fill_parent"
i.e.:
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/corner"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:src="#drawable/corner"/>
weight properties is not applicable in RelativeLayout so remove from xml :
android:layout_weight="1" // remove this properties
Set bottom button to lef side simple set width as wrap instead fill :
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
Here is what is looks like and here is my XML code.
Can someone please post the fixed XML layout code for me and explain what I am doing wrong? I want the - symbol on the left to be all of the way left, just like the > symbol on the right side. The black text should be just to the right of the - symbol.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Why don't you make use of RelativeLayout and using various property of it you can align your TextView and ImageView according to your other views.If u want to set a - to the left then make use android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" and android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" for you > to set it to the right of the layout
In your ImageView you can set your X position using translationX like something below:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imgDelete"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:translationX="-25"
android:src="#drawable/minus" />
Just try it. This is a quick solution only.
Here's an idea on how you can do it. Give it a try.
<RelativeLayout>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imgDelete"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtKey"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/imgDelete" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtValue"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/txtKey" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
I have an ImageView aligned to the parent right in a relativeLayout.
Here is my layout:
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/row" android:background="#null" style="#style/ListRow"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<TextView android:textStyle="bold" android:textColor="#color/primary_text" android:text="Username" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:id="#+id/username" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:singleLine="true" android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/avatar" />
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center_vertical" android:id="#+id/time_item" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignTop="#id/username" android:layout_alignBottom="#id/username" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true">
<TextView android:textSize="#dimen/font_size_small" android:text="12:00AM" android:textColor="#color/secondary_text" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:id="#+id/date" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/avatar" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="5.0dip" android:layout_alignParentRight="true">
<ImageView android:id="#+id/picture" android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" android:layout_width="48.0dip" android:layout_height="48.0dip" android:scaleType="center" android:adjustViewBounds="true" />
<ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
<TextView android:textSize="#dimen/font_size_small" android:text="aslkndalskndlaksndlaskndlaksnlansldnaslkndalsdnaslkdnls" android:textColor="#color/primary_text" android:id="#+id/body" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/avatar" android:layout_below="#id/username" android:lineSpacingMultiplier="1.2" />
</RelativeLayout>
Here is what it looks like:
When starting a new line of text I want the text to align on to the right instead of the left. I have photoshopped what I want. Here is what I want:
Anyone know how I should modify my layout to where it does this? Thanks!
Just add one more property in your TextView body.
android:gravity="right"
You are missing the android:gravity="right" element from your TextView Body. It should go like
<TextView android:gravity="right"...
That simply makes the text originate on the right side of the TextView
