Android Table Layout Alignment

Question

I am using Table Layout to display data as shown below.

What i want to do

Answer 1

My guess - change the layout_width and get rid of the gravity:

 <TextView
            android:id="@+id/textView2"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_centerVertical="true"
            ...
            >
        </TextView>

Answer 2

The easiest way I can think of is to wrap each TableRow content with a LinearLayout like this:

<TableLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/tableLayout1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >

        <TableRow
            android:id="@+id/tableRow2"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:paddingBottom="10dp" >

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="match_parent" >

                <ImageView
                    android:id="@+id/place_category_icon"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:contentDescription="ss"
                    android:paddingRight="10dp"
                    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/textView2"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:layout_gravity="center"
                    android:text="230 kms"
                    android:textSize="16sp" >
                </TextView>
            </LinearLayout>
        </TableRow>

        <TableRow
            android:id="@+id/tableRow2"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:paddingBottom="10dp" >

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="match_parent" >

                <ImageView
                    android:id="@+id/place_category_icon"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:contentDescription="ss"
                    android:paddingRight="10dp"
                    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/textView2"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:layout_gravity="center"
                    android:text="Hill Station, Wild Life"
                    android:textSize="16sp" >
                </TextView>
            </LinearLayout>
        </TableRow>

        <TableRow
            android:id="@+id/tableRow2"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:paddingBottom="10dp" >

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="match_parent" >

                <ImageView
                    android:id="@+id/place_category_icon"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:contentDescription="ss"
                    android:paddingRight="10dp"
                    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/textView2"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:layout_gravity="center"
                    android:text="Summer 23-40°C, Winter 10-32°C"
                    android:textSize="16sp" >
                </TextView>
            </LinearLayout>
        </TableRow>

        <TableRow
            android:id="@+id/tableRow2"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:paddingBottom="10dp" >

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="match_parent" >

                <ImageView
                    android:id="@+id/place_category_icon"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:contentDescription="ss"
                    android:paddingRight="10dp"
                    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/textView2"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:layout_gravity="center"
                    android:text="Tippus Drop, Tippus Summer Residence, Brahmashram, Cycling, Paragliding"
                    android:textSize="16sp" >
                </TextView>
            </LinearLayout>
        </TableRow>
    </TableLayout>

And this is the result:

Hope I correctly understood your requirements.

Since a TableRow is pretty much a horizontally oriented LinearLayout, simply use the principles of weights to make the TextView fill up all the space after the ImageView. It means you'd have to change the rows to somewhat like this:

    <!-- no need to set width/height as those are implicitly enforced -->
    <TableRow
        android:id="@+id/tableRow2"
        android:paddingBottom="10dp" >

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/place_category_icon"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:contentDescription="ss"
            android:paddingRight="10dp"
            android:src="@drawable/icon_category" />

        <!-- width of '0' and weight of '1' will make this view fill up all remaining space -->
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/textView2"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
            android:text="230 kms"
            android:textSize="16sp" />

    </TableRow>

I've also removed/changed some superfluous attributes. Do mind that I just typed this directly in the browser - there may be the odd typo or tweak required.
