change height in Android 2.2 LinearLayout in code
- by Niro
Im trying to change height of Layouts through the code without success.
I've tried all of the examples i saw here and other site and my app just keep shutting down.
xml code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/main_lay"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/layout_add"
>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:background="@color/green">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:contentDescription="@string/desc"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|left"
android:scaleType="fitStart"
android:background="@color/orange"
android:src="@drawable/logo"
>
</ImageView>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Java code:
main_layout=(LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.main_lay);
main_layout.setLayoutParams(new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
main_layout.setBackgroundResource(R.color.white);
layout_add = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout_add);
layout_add.setLayoutParams(new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,50 ));
layout_add.setBackgroundResource(R.color.dark_grey);
I cant understand what im doing wrong. I've tried different ways to fix it.
The Backround setting is working fine.
Thank you guys
