Question

Im not very good in creating android layouts so I am not able to align the button to the bottom in the MainView.

Picture:

Layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/linearLayout1" android:layout_width="fill_parent"  android:layout_height="wrap_content" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical">


    <ListView android:id="@+id/lv_pizza" android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
              android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1"></ListView>
    <Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="@+id/bt_add" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="hinzufügen"></Button>

    <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="@+id/relativeLayout2" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    </RelativeLayout>
    </LinearLayout>

Please help

This works for a linear layout, note the layout_weight 1 on the list — that’s what pushes the button to the bottom:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <ListView android:id="@+id/lv_pizza"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_weight="1" />

    <Button android:id="@+id/bt_add"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="hinzufügen" />

</LinearLayout>

This then looks like this in the UI editor:
