Question

Right now it splits vertically…I want it to split horizontally. I’ve looked at everyone else that says theirs cuts horizontally and I can’t tell the difference…

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="top"
    android:layout_weight="1" >
</LinearLayout>

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom"
    android:layout_weight="1" >
</LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

Change your orientation to vertical

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

 <LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="top"
android:layout_weight=".1" >
 </LinearLayout>

 <LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:layout_weight=".1" >
</LinearLayout>

 </LinearLayout>
