通过网格/列表视图推离屏幕的视图

Question

I already did some research on that question, found some topic but nothing that helped me.

This is what I have :

<RelativeLayout 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@android:color/white">

    <GridView
      android:id="@+id/grid"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:numColumns="2"
      android:padding="5dp"/>

    <EditText
      android:id="@+id/edit"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:padding="5dp"/>

</RelativeLayout>

The problem I have is that when there are too many elements in my grid, the edittext is pushed off the screen. I tried to use alignParentBottom on the editText but this is not what I want.

I was wondering if there is any way to keep the edit text always visible even if there are many elements in the grid view AND to keep the edit text below the grid and not aligned bottom with the parent. I also tried to use a scroll view instead of the relative layout... but this is wrong too cause there are too many bugs using a grid view inside a scroll view.

I hope that I'm clear, don't hesitate to ask for more information.

Thanks you

You can achieve this with a simple LinearLayout too:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <GridLayout
        android:id="@+id/grid"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dip"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:numColumns="2"
        android:padding="5dp" />

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edit"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:ems="10"
        android:padding="5dp" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

</LinearLayout>

I've experienced LinearLayout to be faster and more robust then RelativeLayout but that's more kind of personal opnion.

This should do your job.

<RelativeLayout 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@android:color/white">

    <GridView
      android:id="@+id/grid"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:numColumns="2"
      android:layout_height="0dp"
      android:layout_weight="8"
      android:padding="5dp"/>

    <EditText
      android:id="@+id/edit"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="0dp"
      android:layout_below="@+id/grid"
      android:layout_weight="2"
      android:padding="5dp"/>

</RelativeLayout>
