Center icons and spread them on multiple lines automatically

I want to make a launch bar in my appli开发者_开发技巧cation with a number of icons.

Is there a way for the icons to be automatically distributed on multiple lines if a line is full?

<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/MenuLayout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:gravity="center">
</LinearLayout>

With this code they overflow out of the screen. Any idea?

I think the term you are looking is Menu Options.

Link to assist you with creating menu http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/menus.html

Fairly straightforward You need to

1. Create a menu xml in menu folder
2. Inflate the menu in onCreateOptionsMenu of your activity
3. Control menu action (eg. open activity) in onOptionsItemSelected of your activity

We will not in the end implement such a menu, but rather display a much icons as we can and provide a "more" button if needed.

However if someone is looking for something similar in the future, this DashboardLayout would be a good starting point.
