android - Layout: background picture streched -


i have difficulties layout.

as first dev project, i'm trying make simple chronometer. want have picture of chronometer in background , start , stop button @ bottom of application, side side , filling width of screen.

here best shot, i'm not satisfied.

all widgets placed ... background streched , buttons seem vertically compressed, text @ bottom bit cropped.

i found if change these lines

android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"

by

android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"

the background ok, buttons .. widgets placed in center of activity.

how can fix ?

by way if want have buttons side side, did choose better solution ?

thanks ! charles.

... , xml ....

<linearlayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/background" tools:context=".chronosv1" >  <linearlayout    android:layout_width="fill_parent"    android:layout_height="fill_parent"    android:orientation="vertical"    android:layout_weight="2" >  <chronometer     android:id="@+id/chronometer1"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="fill_parent"     android:gravity="center" />  </linearlayout>  <linearlayout     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:orientation="horizontal"     android:layout_weight="1" >      <button         android:id="@+id/button1"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:layout_weight="50"         android:text="start" />       <button         android:id="@+id/button2"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:layout_weight="50"         android:text="stop" /> </linearlayout>

i tried relativelayout. don't know how have 2 buttons of same size without using padding, don't think it's idea if want app run on different screens.

anyway come this, still have streched image , buttons don't have same size.

<relativelayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/background" tools:context=".chronosv1" >  <chronometer     android:id="@+id/chronometer1"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="fill_parent"     android:gravity="center" />  <button     android:id="@+id/button1"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:layout_alignparentbottom="true"     android:text="start" />  <button     android:id="@+id/button2"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:layout_alignparentbottom="true"     android:layout_alignparentright="true"     android:layout_torightof="@id/button1"     android:text="stop" />

try relativelayout ;) think easier handle linearlayout. maybe can upload picture how looks , give relativelayout solution ;)

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers ...
