    <p>I've an app that has a menu of about 10 buttons. On my test phone(HTC ONE X), all of the buttons are displayed correctly. On my other test phone(HTC Desire C) a couple of buttons are off the screen. The bottom 2 buttons and textviews are missing.</p> <p>How can I make the whole layout fit various screen sizes? Do i have to get the screen size at run-time eg use getDisplayMetrics etc?</p> <p>Thanks in advance, Matt.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/carefreebgscaledlighting" android:orientation="vertical" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textviewcompanyname" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" android:textColor="#003F87" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/spacerasnexttextviewclasheswithbg" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textview1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringloggedinscreen" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" android:textColor="#003F87" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttonsignin" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringbuttonsignin" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttongetrota" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringbuttongetrota" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttongetphonenumbers" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringbuttongetphonenumbers" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/viewtransactionsactual" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="View Transactions" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttondeletecarertable" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringbuttondeletetable" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttonloadtransactionsmap" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringloadtransactionmap" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttonloneworker" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/buttonloneworker" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttonsendOutstandingTransactions" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringSendOutstandingTransactions" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/buttoncreatemanuallogout" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:text="@string/stringbuttoncreatemanuallogout" /&gt; &lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" &gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textViewYouAreSignedIn" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" android:textColor="#FFFFFF" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textViewUnsentTransactions" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:layout_below="@id/textViewYouAreSignedIn" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" android:textColor="#FFFFFF" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textViewVersionmenuscreen" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/stringtextviewversion" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; &lt;/LinearLay </code></pre> <p>out></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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
