I have a task - make an activity like this Here photo takes one half of screen and text takes another. And everything works fine with weights, but sometimes text can take a lot of space and don't fit in screen, so I covered all my layout with ScrollView, but here comes problem. If everything doesn't fit into one screen everything should look that way - photo will take one half of visible screen and second half will contain some part of text that can fit there, and when I scroll, everything should be scrolled and new text will appear at the bottom. But I don't understand how to realize that, weights here work in some weird way and as I understood tag fillViewPort="true" makes something only if there is nothing to scroll, and when there is something this tag makes nothing. So how can I make my view look in proper way?
Here is my XML

I achived my aim making it programmaticaly. In activity I got access to ImageView and set it's height = half of visible screen.
ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = bigphoto.getLayoutParams();
lp.height = getResources().getDisplayMetrics().heightPixels/2;
bigphoto.setLayoutParams(lp);
But still I don't know how to make this using XML

I have following problem, I want to add a ImageView (the Google Play button) to my dialog which stays in place, no matter which device the app is running on.
Here is what it should look like:
This is what it looks like on some devices:
Here is the XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/goProDialogImage"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:src="#drawable/goldversiondialog"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/googleplaybutton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/goProDialogImage"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/goProDialogImage"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:maxHeight="250dp"
android:maxWidth="250dp"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:src="#drawable/gpbutton" />
</RelativeLayout>
How can I tell the app to never put the Image above the golden veil?
Do this:
<LinearLayout
android:weightSum="1"
android:gravity="end"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/googleplaybutton"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.5"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_logo" />
</LinearLayout>
I have removed some of your properties, the key point is that you need to use weightSum in LinearLayout and apply weight to your ImageView(I have given 0.5, you can change according to your need). Also, do not set android:scaleType to fitXY, keep the aspect ratio so the height will change according to the width.
I want to add a framed number (#+id/number_ayat) right after the end of the text(#+id/isi_ayat), but it can't if I use textview. So how can I add numbers and frames after the end of the text?

Whether this can be solved with java?
Thanks in advance for help with my problem !
I have modeled the layout in Android Studio. I had to force rtl on my layout so there may be some things to correct. The first that I sugest is changing the width of "#+id/isi_ayat" as explained below.
The changes I did were the following:
In the LinearLayout I set gravity to end for the textviews to go to the right.
For android:id="#+id/isi_ayat", I set gravity and textAlignment to end so the text aligns to the end of the TextView, and also set layout_gravity to end and center_vertical for the TextView to also go to the end. And also changed the width from match_parent to wrap_content.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="end">
<TextView
android:textSize="20dp"
android:id="#+id/number_ayat"
android:layout_width="40dp"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:gravity="center"
tools:text="10"/>
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="end|center_vertical"
android:gravity="end"
android:textAlignment="gravity"
android:id="#+id/isi_ayat"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="30dp"
tools:text="lorem ipsum dolo asd"/>
</LinearLayout>
EDIT I
I removed android:layout_marginRight="10dp" from android:id="#+id/number_ayat".
As you can see in the picture below. There is no more space between the two textviews.
This is the closest you can get without making the number's textview smaller.
EDIT II
I think I understood, if there are more lines the number must be after the last line.
Change android:gravity="end" to android:gravity="end|bottom" in
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="end">
It looks like some issues appears on the display of my app when I run it on old devices. Here is what I observe.
1) When I open my app in recent phones (above NEXUS 5) the screen of the dialog I am showing appear properly all the elements are there. They are all defined with a height of "WRAP_CONTENT".
2) When I run my app in NEXUS 4, the dialog appears cut, even though there is still space on the screen...For whatever reason it looks like the "WRAP_CONTENT" does not work... but if I set the height of the dialog programmaticaly then it is working (I try setup the height of the button and the framelayout without success).
Any idea what I am missing there? If you advise me to set the height programmaticaly, then my problems become how to know if the user is using an old device or not so that when he is I define the pop-up taking the whole screen otherwise not...
I have included a screenshot of what I see on recent phone (just below, you can see the button cool completely) and what I see on NEXUS4 (second screenshot you can only see the beginning of the button cool...)
and below is the XML I am using

I found the mistake, it was in the code there where the margin was too big for that screen...
<LinearLayout
**android:layout_margin="32dp"**

android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#DD000000">
My understanding was that the wrap_content take as much space as needed by its contents. But doesn’t this apply to TextViews as well?
In the following layout why when I change the font of TextView with id real_status to 24 the text is partially hidden? I was expecting that due to the wrap content the enclosing TextView it would wrap around the 24 sp and display the text fine. It is fine with 18sp.
Layout:

With 18sp:
With 24sp:
UPDATE:
Following the answers I removed the layout top/bottom and the font adjusted but now I see that the TextView overlaps with the next widget. Adding red background is more visible.
I thought that by “growning” the TextView the rest would move down and not overlap
whenever You suffering from this type of problem You can LiniarLayout is best if You understand it very well. because of wrap_content and match_parent is simple to handle in LiniarLayout.
lets understand it.(For Your case)..
1.take two LiniarLayout(parent have verticle orientation..)
i give Id LL1(horizontal) and id LL2 for your case
2.in first layout two textview #+id/full_display_name and #+id/real_status
in real_status have match_parent in width so it easy to divide parent(fill_parent) and set its android:gravity="right"
3.LiniarLayout as it is without relate
See belove XML code...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="right"
android:text="Active"
android:textSize="26sp" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/LL2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/real_status"
android:gravity="right" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:text="Just a text view" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
It will help you Your GUI give bestView in All devices with any size of text
Hope it help You
Remove these two line will fix your problem
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/full_display_name"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/full_display_name"
Yes the wrap_content will take as much space needed by the view. It will also applied to the TextView also. The problem here is you written android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/full_display_name" to real_status text view. This attribute is overriding the wrap_content So remove allignBottom attribute from the text view.
UPDATE
For your bottom linear layout update the line
android:layout_below="#+id/full_display_name"
with
android:layout_below="#+id/real_status"
Alright, what I'm trying to do is: setting an imageview to be on the right and the 3 textviews will be located on the left relative to the image. With the following XML code, the imageview is on the left and the 3 textviews are located in the right of the imageview.
Here's the look of it now:
As I said, I want the image to be aligned on the right side, and the 3 textviews on the left of the image.
So here's the current xml: http://pastebin.com/r68S1QKv
If I change the LinearLayout to RelativeLayout (so I can use alignParentRight = true), the textviews stack on each other and are not displayed vertically.
Suggestions, please?
EDIT: Looks like I haven't clarify the wanted look, here's an illustration of what I want:
Use This Code.Use RelativeLayout as parent & assign android:layout_alignParentRight="true" to his child this set your all view to right side.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/row_title"
style="bold"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="hey1" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/row_subtitle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="hey2" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/row_postcode_city"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="hey3" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/icon"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
What you can do - is to make outer RelativeLayout, make you image alignParentRight=true, put text views in a separate linear layout (with vertical orientation), align your LinearLayout with text views to the left edge of the image view (layout_toLeftOf="#+id/img_id").
Here is what I manage to do following this approach:
<?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"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/img"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/text_container">
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="text1"/>
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="text2"/>
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="text3"/>
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:src="#drawable/icon"
android:id="#+id/img"/>
</RelativeLayout>
