Answer 1

As you are using LinearLayout with orientation as vertical you will get every new layout below the previous Layout. Better would be use RelativeLayout. As android:layout_toRightOf is a property of RelativeLayout it will have no effect in LinearLayout.

The best in your case would be using TableLayout, just you have to put TextView inside TableRow.

Pseudo code,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <TableRow>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/payment_method1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"
            android:text="Artist"
            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/artist"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"
            android:text="artist"
            android:textColor="#10bcc9"
            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />
    </TableRow>

    <TableRow>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/total1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"
            android:text="Duration"
            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/duration"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"
            android:text="duration"
            android:textColor="#10bcc9"
            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />
    </TableRow>

    <TableRow>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/firstname1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"
            android:text="Title"
            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/title"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="10dip"

            android:textSize="15dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />
    </TableRow>

</TableLayout>
