Question

I have the following ImageView and TextView:

Here is the XML:

<LinearLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:id="@+id/headerLinearLay" android:orientation="horizontal">
        <ImageView android:src="@drawable/icon" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/avatarImageView"></ImageView>
        <TextView android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/usernameTextView" android:text="TextView" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:paddingLeft="4px"></TextView>
    </LinearLayout>

How can I make the image and the text be positioned at the same height? I also want the ImageView to be in the corner

Answer 1

Try this:

<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:id="@+id/headerLinearLay">
    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/avatarImageView"
        android:src="@drawable/icon"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"></ImageView>
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/usernameTextView"
        android:text="TextView"
        android:paddingLeft="4dp"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@id/avatarImageView"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"></TextView>
</RelativeLayout>
