Answer 1

It depends that which layout you are using. Below example places a RelativeLayout in a LinearLayout.

LinearLayout linearLayoutParent;
RelativeLayout relativeLayout;

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams margin = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
margin.setMargins(0, 0, 0, 7); //7px bottom margin

//create the linear and the relative layouts

//...add other stuff here...

// Add view with its margins
linearLayoutParent.addView(relativeLayout, margin);

Answer 2

LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.setMargins(0,0, 5, 0);
