Question

I am trying to do a small code having a condition that if the Boolean value set true only all the three relatives should appear in the User Interface. If it is set false, only two layouts should be display. I am able to do this.

My problem is when I am checking the condition and set the View.INVISIBLE condition to the layout2, the gap is appearing between the layouts 1 and 3.
How can I remove this gap? My layouts are created in XML like this:

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/rl_one"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="40dp"                    
    android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />

<RelativeLayout
   android:id="@+id/rl_two"
   android:layout_width="wrap_content"
   android:layout_height="40dp"
   android:layout_below="@+id/rl_one"
   android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
   android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/rl_three"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="40dp"
    android:layout_below="@+id/rl_two"
    android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />

Thank you.

you should have to use View.GONE in place of View.INVISIBLE .
