Android simple percentage layout?

Is there a way to have a fullscreen row with elements on Android? I tried to do it with table, GridView and linear, but I'm struggling with it since quite a time now and couldn't find a post that helped me.

I just made a small picture of what I'd like to do: http://i.imgur.com/W0oTyaC.pngenter image description here

In short point:

  • Label and Button should just be as big as their content and fit to the biggest label in the column

  • The button should stick on the right side

  • The label should stick on the left side

  • The textbox should just fill the leftover space between label/button, but in the case of bigger content, it shouldn't "kick out" the button on the right...

My last try was the GridView, which looks a kind of acceptable, but not really.

EDIT:

The ConstraintLayout did a quite good job for my purpose - thanks for good hint Luca:

Code looks like this now:

You can use a ConstraintLayout to achieve this, here you can find an explanation of it.

Your layout file should look like this:

Can't access property inside object initializer

Consider the following code. List files = new List (); .... while (reader.Read()) { var a = new MyFiles { FileName = reader["Filename"].ToString(), FileLocation = reader["Filelocation"].ToString(), FullPath = FileLocation + @"\" + FileName // Error at this line }; files.Add(a); } The above is a snippet from my method which uses SqlDataReader to fetch data from the database. Everything works fine expect when I try to assign value to FullPath property I get the following error message: An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'MyFiles.FileLocation' An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'MyFiles.FileName' I know I can make those properties static or create an instance and access them via e.g. var b = new MyFiles(); b.FileLocation .. But my question is why can't I use FileLocation and FileName as I am in t...
