Answer 1

You might want to try setting the position of your button before you add it to the parent view. So just swap these two lines:

relativelayout.addView(button);
button.layout(x, y, x + button.getWidth(), y + button.getHeight());

to be this:

button.layout(x, y, x + button.getWidth(), y + button.getHeight());
relativelayout.addView(button);
