Set the layout weight of a TextView programmatically

I'm trying to dynamically create 开发者_Go百科TableRow objects and add them to a TableLayout. The TableRow objects has 2 items, a TextView and a CheckBox. The TextView items need to have their layout weight set to 1 to push the CheckBox items to the far right.

I can't find documentation on how to programmatically set the layout weight of a TextView item.

You have to use TableLayout.LayoutParams with something like this:

TextView tv = new TextView(v.getContext());
tv.setLayoutParams(new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));

The last parameter is the weight.

The answer is that you have to use TableRow.LayoutParams, not LinearLayout.LayoutParams or any other LayoutParams.

TextView tv = new TextView(v.getContext());
LayoutParams params = new TableRow.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f);
tv.setLayoutParams(params);

The different LayoutParams are not interchangeable and if you use the wrong one then nothing seems to happen. The text view's parent is a table row, hence:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TableRow.LayoutParams.html

In the earlier answers weight is passed to the constructor of a new SomeLayoutType.LayoutParams object. Still in many cases it's more convenient to use existing objects - it helps to avoid dealing with parameters we are not interested in.

An example:

// Get our View (TextView or anything) object:
View v = findViewById(R.id.our_view); 

// Get params:
LinearLayout.LayoutParams loparams = (LinearLayout.LayoutParams) v.getLayoutParams();

// Set only target params:
loparams.height = 0;
loparams.weight = 1;
v.setLayoutParams(loparams);

TextView txtview = new TextView(v.getContext());
LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f);
txtview.setLayoutParams(params);

1f is denotes as weight=1; you can give 2f or 3f, views will move accoding to the space

just set layout params in that layout like

create param variable

 android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
            LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f);

1f is weight variable

set your widget or layout like

 TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text);
 text.setLayoutParams(params);

TextView text = new TextView(v.getContext());
text.setLayoutParams(new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 
                                                LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));

(OR)

TextView tv = new TextView(v.getContext());
LayoutParams params = new TableRow.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f);
tv.setLayoutParams(params);

1f is refered as weight=1; according to your need you can give 2f or 3f, views will move accoding to the space. For making specified distance between views in Linear layout use weightsum for "LinearLayout".

LinearLayout ll_Outer= (LinearLayout ) view.findViewById(R.id.linearview);
LinearLayout llInner = new LinearLayout(this);
            LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.FillParent, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WrapContent);
            llInner.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal;
            llInner.WeightSum = 2;
            ll_Outer.AddView(llInner);

This should works to you

LinearLayout.LayoutParams param = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);

param.weight=1.0f;

You can also give weight separately like this ,

LayoutParams lp1 = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);

 lp1.weight=1;

This work for me, and I hope it will work for you also

Set the LayoutParams for the parent view first:

myTableLayout.setLayoutParams(new TableLayout.LayoutParams(TableLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                TableLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));

then set for the TextView (child):

 TableLayout.LayoutParams textViewParam = new TableLayout.LayoutParams
     (TableLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
     TableLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,1f);
     //-- set components margins
     textViewParam.setMargins(5, 0, 5,0);
     myTextView.setLayoutParams(textViewParam); 

After strugling for 4 hours. Finally, This code worked for me.

3 Columns are there in a row.

  TextView serialno = new TextView(UsersActivity.this);
  TextView userId = new TextView(UsersActivity.this);
  TextView name = new TextView(UsersActivity.this);

  serialno.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));
  userId.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));
  name.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 1f));

There is another way to do this. In case you need to set only one parameter, for example 'height':

TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text_view);
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = textView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT;
textView.setLayoutParams(params);

I had a fair amount of difficulty with a solution something very similar to this: trying to have two buttons in a TableRow, with each being half the screen width. For whatever reason, the left button would always be about 70% of the width, and the right button 30%. Calling table_layout.setStretchAllColumns(true) had no effect, nor did setting the button's width to half the screen, nor setting their layout weight.

The solution I ended up with was nesting a LinearLayout in the TableRows, which did take into account the value of the buttons' width.

    TableLayout layout = new TableLayout(this);
    TableRow top_row = new TableRow(this);
    left_button = styleButton();
    right_button = styleButton();
    LinearLayout toprow_layout = new LinearLayout (this);
    toprow_layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
    toprow_layout.addView (left_button);
    toprow_layout.addView(right_button);
    toprow.addView(top_layout);
    layout.addView(top_row)

    private Button styleButton() {
            Button btn = new Button (this);
            android.view.Display display = ((android.view.WindowManager)getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();      
            btn.setWidth((int)(display.getWidth()/2));    // set width to half
            btn.setHeight(((int)display.getHeight()/6));  // set height to whatevs
            btn.setText("foo");
            return btn;
        }
