page.title=Hello, TableLayout
parent.title=Hello, Views
parent.link=index.html
@jd:body
<p>A {@link android.widget.TableLayout} is a ViewGroup that
will lay child View elements into rows and columns.</p>
<ol>
<li>Start a new project/Activity called HelloTableLayout.</li>
<li>Open the layout file.
Make it like so:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:stretchColumns="1">
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_column="1"
android:text="Open..."
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Ctrl-O"
android:gravity="right"
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_column="1"
android:text="Save..."
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Ctrl-S"
android:gravity="right"
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_column="1"
android:text="Save As..."
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Ctrl-Shift-S"
android:gravity="right"
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
<View
android:layout_height="2dip"
android:background="#FF909090" />
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:text="X"
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Import..."
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:text="X"
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Export..."
android:padding="3dip" />
<TextView
android:text="Ctrl-E"
android:gravity="right"
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
<View
android:layout_height="2dip"
android:background="#FF909090" />
<TableRow>
<TextView
android:layout_column="1"
android:text="Quit"
android:padding="3dip" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</pre>
<p>Notice how this resembles the structure of an HTML table. <code>TableLayout</code> is like the
<code>table</code> element; <code>TableRow</code> is like a <code>tr</code> element; but for our cells like
the html <code>td</code> element, we can use any kind of View. Here, we use <code>TextView</code> for the cells.</p>
</li>
<li>Make sure your Activity loads this layout in the <code>onCreate()</code> method:
<pre>
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
</pre>
<p><code>R.layout.main</code> refers to the <code>main.xml</code> layout file.</p>
</li>
<li>Run it.</li>
</ol>
<p>You should see the following:</p>
<img src="images/hello-tablelayout.png" width="150px" />
