Add a marker (android: layout_marginTop = "50dp") to the top of the second button:

 <?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="wrap_content" android:orientation="vertical" android:padding="10dp" > <Button android:id="@+id/btnAction1" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/cool_button" android:text = "HiText1" /> <Button android:layout_marginTop="50dp" android:id="@+id/btnAction2" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/cool_button" android:text="HiText2" android:layout_below="@id/btnAction1" /> </LinearLayout>
