Question

I have a simple layout, which shows a text and a image:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:background="#ffffff"
>    
    <LinearLayout 
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:gravity="center"
    >

        <TextView 
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="TEST"
            android:textColor="#0099cc"
        />

        <ImageView   
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:tint="#55ff0000"
            android:src="@drawable/my_image"/>
    </LinearLayout>    


</LinearLayout>

I would like the image to be shown only when the device is in Portrait mode.

What I mean is if the device is in landscape mode, I would like to not only just hide the image, but remove the image completely from the layout. How to do it?

You can specify two layouts: one fort portrait mode, placed in layout-port folder, and one for landscape mode, placed in layout-land folder. Hope this helps.
