Setting up RelativeLayout in java code

Question

I\'m having a hard time getting two text views to appear on top of each other in my java code. Here\'s the code I\'m experimenting with:

/** Called when the          


        

Answer 1

I don't think you are looking to layout the text1 view below the RelativeLayout since you added all your views to it as children, right? Try removing the first rule; that rule is asking the text view to be below the same view it is in.

EDIT: Also a help is explicitly setting the id of the view you are laying out relative to.

So here:

text1.setId(2);
p.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW,2);

Answer 2

Your TextViews don't have an id (by default the id is -1)... put this after their initialization:

text1.setId(1111); // 1111 is just an example,
text2.setId(2222); // just make sure the id are unique

Answer 3

you can use xml layout for this :

in relative layout u set the first textview and assign it some id fot the next text view we can assign parameter android:layout_below="id of above text view" in this way we get 2nd text view below 1st text view
