What's the default height of a blank View?












-2















I want to separate the 4 icon with equal space like pic1.



pic1



And the XML code for pic1 is:



code1



However, at the first time, I set the Blank View height as wrap_content, then the result showed like this:



pic2.



The code for pic2 is:



code2.



The only difference is highlight by red rectangle.

use this code in place of that linearlayout containing all the icons



<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<!--keep your first icon code here-->

</LinearLayout>

<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<!--keep your second icon code here-->

</LinearLayout>

<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<!--keep your third icon code here-->

</LinearLayout>

<LinearLayout
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<!--keep your fourth icon code here-->

</LinearLayout>




hope that helps



if some problem leme know



happy coding :)

In the case of this layout, you will get more from a ConstraintLayout.



Specifically, setting your icons within a ConstraintLayout would look like this to get the balanced look you're going for:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image_1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/check"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@id/image_2"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside"/>

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image_2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/check"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@id/image_1"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@id/image_3"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside" />

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image_3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/check"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@id/image_2"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@id/image_4"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside" />

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/image_4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/check"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@id/image_3"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside"/>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>


The takeaways from this snippet that get your look are:





  • horizontal Orientation for the ConstraintLayout

  • Constraints for each ImageView that attach them to the one before and after

  • First view is constraint to the parent, specially, as is the last view


  • app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside", says to spread them out evenly within the available space.


If you don't want them touching the sides, add padding to the left/right of the parent ConstraintLayout.
