Android sdk 18 TextView gravity doesn't work vertically
android, java, textview
Solution
The problem is the RelativLayout as root layout of the listview item. If your put a LinearLayout around the RelativeLayout it works also with targetSdk = 19. Same problem appears with the GridView.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
... your layout like before
</LinearLayout>
This is not really a nice workaround - but better than put targetSdk = 17 I guess.
Problem
I have a probleme with the SDK 18. The gravity of my text view doesn't work vertically. But it's working with sdk17. Pictures and code : header_of_listView.xml : ``` <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/RelativeLayout1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="horizontal" > <ImageView android:id="@+id/iv_bg" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="@dimen/entete.size.h" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:contentDescription="@string/blank" android:scaleType="fitXY" android:src="@drawable/cellule_flecher_mise_en_valeur" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/tv_message" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignBottom="@id/iv_bg" android:layout_alignLeft="@id/iv_bg" android:layout_alignRight="@id/iv_bg" android:layout_alignTop="@id/iv_bg" android:layout_marginBottom="6dp" android:gravity="center" android:text="@string/a_remplacer" android:textColor="@color/tableviewText" android:textSize="18sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/> </RelativeLayout> ``` AndroidManifest.xml ``` <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="17" /> ``` AndroidManifest.xml ``` <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="18" /> ``` with black background for textview android:background="#000000" If someone have an idea. I have try to change wrap_content with match_parent. The only thing that work is android:layout_height="@dimen/entete.size.h" on the TextView, but the margin doesn't apply. For the moment I leave the project to SDK 17.
