    <p>I have a linear layout which contains an imageview and another linear layout which is a bottom bar on the screen. I use the bottom bar elsewhere in my project and I dont think it is the problem. </p> <p>The problem is that the imageview takes up the entire screen. The image itself doesn't, but the view does. I can't seem to figure this out. As you can see in my xml, I am not using fill_parent for the image view and I have tried every possible scaleType for the image.</p> <p>Any suggestions? Also if it helps I am building to Android API 8</p> <p>Edit: I have changed the xml below so that you can use exactly what I have written. (This is the image that I use in the image view: <a href="https://i.imgur.com/qN5aT.jpg" rel="noreferrer">http://i.imgur.com/qN5aT.jpg</a>)</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#FFFFFF" &gt; &lt;ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:scaleType="fitStart" android:src="@drawable/quote_sample_img" /&gt; &lt;LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="bottom" android:orientation="vertical" &gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="This is text" /&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p><a href="https://i.imgur.com/m3msH.png" rel="noreferrer">http://i.imgur.com/m3msH.png</a> (Sorry not enough reputation to post the actual picture)</p>

    1. COHave you tried using the layout_weight property to set a fixed ration between the amount of space between the imageview layout and the second linearlayout? how did it go?

    2. COso that kind of worked but not in the way I would expect. I just played around with a whole bunch of parameters and when I gave the image a layout_weight=".8" and the linearlayout and a layout_weight of ".2" then the bottom bar appeared. The weird thing is the more weight I gave the linearlayout, the less it appeared. That makes no sense to me. Any idea why this would occur?

    3. COIm worried about going forward using this, even though it seems to work, because I have to add several more views, and I dont know if it will keep working or whether it will work on multiple screens

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.
