    <p>What I want to do is make a centered box containing some text blurbs and a button to proceed. I was able to get the box centered and not taking up the entire screen by using wrap_content, but the blurbs are several lines long, and the textviews containing them are not showing all the text. Here is what I have:</p> <pre><code>&lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="center" android:background="@color/background" android:orientation="vertical" &gt; &lt;LinearLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_gravity="center" android:background="@color/content" android:padding="10dp" &gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="center" android:text="@string/title" android:textColor="@color/black" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/teacher_head" android:textColor="@color/black" /&gt; &lt;TextView style="@style/home_blurb" android:text="@string/teacher_blurb" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/student_head" android:textColor="@color/black" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:text="@string/student_blurb" style="@style/home_blurb" /&gt; &lt;Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="0dip" android:layout_gravity="center" android:layout_weight="0.1" android:gravity="center" android:paddingTop="5dp" android:text="@string/go_to_app" /&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>where home_blurb is</p> <pre><code>&lt;style name="home_blurb" parent="android:TextAppearance"&gt; &lt;item name="android:paddingBottom"&gt;5dp&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:textColor"&gt;@color/black&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:layout_width"&gt;fill_parent&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:layout_height"&gt;fill_parent&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:layout_weight"&gt;1&lt;/item&gt; &lt;item name="android:textSize"&gt;12dp&lt;/item&gt; &lt;/style&gt; </code></pre> <p>The inner LinearLayout sets itself to the width of the button, which I'm okay with, but is there any way to make it wide enough to contain all the text without setting particular pixel measurements (like screen percentage in html/css)? </p>

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
