LinearLayout中按钮的边距不起作用

Question

In my project, I'd like to have two Button elements in a LinearLayout without space between them.

I've tried to set padding and margin to 0dp , to remove style and to remove ScrollView but nothing works. I can't figure out a way to remove the space between buttons. Do you have some ideas?

My XML is:

     <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<!-- The first child in the layout is for the main Activity UI-->

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_container"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    >


</LinearLayout>

<!-- Side navigation drawer UI -->
<ScrollView
    android:layout_width="200dp"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="left|start"
    android:background="#ffeeeeee"
    android:clickable="true"
    android:fillViewport="true"
    >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="vertical" android:padding="0dp" >

        <Button
            style="?android:attr/borderlessButtonStyle"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/agenda"
            android:drawableLeft="@drawable/agenda_icon"
            android:textAllCaps="false"
            android:gravity="left|center_vertical"
            android:drawablePadding="5dp"
            android:layout_margin="0dp"
            android:padding="0dp"
            />

        <Button
            style="?android:attr/borderlessButtonStyle"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/day"
            android:drawableLeft="@drawable/agenda_icon"
            android:textAllCaps="false"
            android:gravity="left|center_vertical"
            android:drawablePadding="5dp"
            android:layout_margin="0dp"
            android:padding="0dp"

            />

        <Button
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/month"
            android:drawableLeft="@drawable/agenda_icon"
            android:textAllCaps="false"
            android:gravity="left|center_vertical"
            android:drawablePadding="5dp"
            android:layout_margin="0dp"
            android:padding="0dp"
            style="?android:attr/borderlessButtonStyle"/>

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="1dp"
            android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"/>
    </LinearLayout>



</ScrollView>


</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

But the result is (I've touch the last two buttons to show the button background):

Setting padding of each Button to 0 (@aga answer) doesn't solve my problem :(

Answer 1

Try changing the color of the button, because the default interface of the button which is native to android is center-fitted to make it look cool.

Change the background color of the button to match the color of the layout in which it is placed, then we will get the real size of the button. In your case

android:background="#000"

Answer 2

Use this since it does not use the style it may get rid of some issues by setting the width to a hard coded size and by uses default paddings

<Button
                    android:id="@+id/btn_overtime"
                    android:layout_width="310sp"
                    android:layout_height="match_parent"
                    android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
                    android:text="Overtime"
                    android:textSize="20sp"
                    android:textStyle="bold" />
