    <p>I was trying to put a TextView <code>dependent</code> above the other TextView <code>anchor</code> inside a RelativeLayout, but I can't manage to make the <code>dependent</code> get displayed. </p> <p><strong>Situation:</strong><br/> The <code>anchor</code> would be aligned with the parent's top + some <em>marginTop</em> to make it more to the center of the parent (RelativeLayout), and the <code>dependent</code> will be aligned to be above of this <code>anchor</code>. </p> <p>This doesn't work; when I assigned it to be above the <code>anchor</code> it seems that android assumes the top of the <code>anchor</code> is the parent's top and draws the <code>dependent</code> outside the screen (above it).</p> <p>This should not be the case since I use <em>margin</em> instead of <em>padding</em> so the area between the top of the RelativeLayout and the <code>anchor</code> shouldn't be the part of the <code>anchor</code> itself (I checked the size with hierarchy viewer). Or maybe I get it wrong? :S</p> <p>This is the simple layout code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&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/anchor" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_marginTop="100px" android:text="Anchor point." /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/dependent" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_above="@id/anchor" android:text="Dependent." /&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Desired:</strong><br/></p> <pre> ------------- | | |dependent | |anchor | | | ------------- </pre> <p><strong>What happened:</strong><br/></p> <pre> dependent (out of screen display) ------------- | | | | |anchor | | | ------------- </pre> <p><strong>Hope:</strong><br/> Could someone help me here? Or maybe help pointing out if I made a mistake. I need to use the RelativeLayout in my real implementation (above is just an example).</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>

    2. COSorry I didn't notice your comment. No, I don't know what went wrong here. In the end I made a hack using an empty view as a filler to replace the anchor's margin.

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.

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