Linear Layout over relative layout
- by Sai
I have a relative layout for Camera preview with some overlay features. The layout file looks like the one in shown below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<android.view.SurfaceView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/preview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
</android.view.SurfaceView>
</RelativeLayout>
I integrated some menu options from the android bluetooth chat example. The menu options work fine but if I click on one of the options, the app just froze. It opens a debug perspective but I am not able to understand them.
The app does not seem to crash but it just froze. The layout that I am using for the menu options is:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<TextView android:id="@+id/title_paired_devices"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/title_paired_devices"
android:visibility="gone"
android:textColor="#fff"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
/>
<ListView android:id="@+id/paired_devices"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:stackFromBottom="true"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<TextView android:id="@+id/title_new_devices"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/title_other_devices"
android:visibility="gone"
android:textColor="#fff"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
/>
<ListView android:id="@+id/new_devices"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:stackFromBottom="true"
android:layout_weight="2"
/>
Can I attribute this to the fact that I am trying to overlay Linear layout over relative layout? Any suggestions to display the list of bluetooth devices over camera preview would be greatly appreciated
