Android layout with two evenly spaced buttons

Question

I have this layout that works correctly, a relative layout with a text view, and two buttons evenly spaced beneath it.

<RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/entrypopup" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:padding="5px" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_below="@+id/ad" android:background="#80000000"> <TextView android:id="@+id/title" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Entry Popup..." android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:textSize="20sp" /> <TableLayout android:id="@+id/TableLayout01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@id/title"> <TableRow android:layout_weight="1"> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonVisit" android:text="View" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_weight="1"/> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonCancel" android:text="Cancel" android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_weight="1" android:layout_height="fill_parent"/> </TableRow> </TableLayout> </RelativeLayout> 

But when he starts layoutopt, he says that "this TableRow layout or its parent TableLayout is useless."

Is there any way to make this layout without tables?

Answer 1

Drop the TableLayout and TableRow and just use the horizontal LinearLayout instead. The "magic" is in your width of 0dip and 1 , which you already have.
