Hallo there,

I have a problem with ListView's, LinearLayout and a Download popping in.

Here is what I do currently:
I'm developing a Podcast Client. Atm it has 2 ContentViews. One for Podcast Listing and another for Show Listing. Once I start a download I add Views, Inflated from Xml, for each Download to the LinearLayout so I can watch its progress. If the ContentView is changed during a download I remove the DownloadViews from the old Layout and add them to the LinearLayout in the new Content View. That works fine. But I have 2 issues. First setting Gravity doesn't really matter. (Look at the attached picture.) Second: If the ListView fills everything up to the bottom the Download Views aren't visible at all. I guess they are added somewhere off screen. Once a Downloadthread is done it removes itself from the LinearLayout.

So my Question is: Is there a better way to realize displaying Views dynamicly at the Bottom?

I appretiate any help. Thanks in advance.

Hello Stefan

I was having trouble with a similar issue.

Have a look at the RelativeLayout, it let's you position children according to the position of their parents or siblings.

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams bottomLayoutParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
bottomLayoutParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM);


Hope that helps. Cheers.
