I have a GridLayout (not GridView) where I want to add some views with a special row and column inex. In XML I can set the View with:
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_column="2"
android:layout_row="4"
android:text="Large Text" />
But how can I set the attributes layout_column
and layout_row
programmatically? I want something like this:
GridLayout grid = new GridLayout(getActivity());
grid.setColumn(2);
grid.setRow(4);
grid.addView(new Button(getActivity());
The equivalent of layout_column
and layout_row
, as with all layout_...
parameters, is to be found as a parameter of a subclass of LayoutParams
.
In this case it's GridLayout.LayoutParams
, and we use it like this (for a 2x2 grid with a subview in the final row and column, centred within the cell):
gridLayout.setColumnCount(2);
gridLayout.setRowCount(2);
gridLayout.addView(subview, new GridLayout.LayoutParams(
GridLayout.spec(1, GridLayout.CENTER),
GridLayout.spec(1, GridLayout.CENTER)));
