Question

I have this layout:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:background="#222222"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:paddingBottom="5dp">
    <SeekBar
        android:layout_width="200dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/seekbar"
        android:max="5"
        android:progress="2">
   </SeekBar>
      <TextView android:id="@+id/fontsize00" 
        android:layout_width="25dp" 
        android:layout_height="25dp"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
        android:text="C"
        android:textSize="20dp"
        android:background="#FFFFFF"
        android:textColor="#222222">
   </TextView>

</LinearLayout>  

The size of the text changes with the change of the value of the spinner.
Even if at low values the text is in the center of the textview, at bigger values it is set lower.
Why is this happening?

Answer 1

It may be because you are setting the android:layout_height of the layout manually. Try changing it to wrap-content.

And TextView, as you are probably aware, has some other padding methods. Where you can set some special padding.
