SOLVED: Putting Views on top of each other, any way?

travisjames · by **travisjames** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 6:42 am

I have the following code, and in LinearLayout flanel it adds LinearLayouts "layout and layout1" to it but it crashes my program because they are in a ListView.

My real questions is: is there anyway of putting "layout" above "layout 1" in the "flanel" LinearLayout?

   iv.setImageBitmap(photo);
 
   iv.setScaleType(ScaleType.CENTER);
 
   iv.setPadding(0, 4, 4, 0);
 
   iv.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

I created another LinearLayout that held the other linear layouts within it.

LinearLayout "ontop" holds horizontal Layouts "layout and layout1" in a vertical layout so that they are on top of each other.
