Changing position of a button

Question

I have one button in an AbsoluteLayout in an XML file. From there I am able to set the (x,y) position of the button.

How can I get and set the (x,y) coordinates of t

Answer 1

You have to get a reference to you button, for example by calling findViewById(). When you got the reference to the button you can set the x and y value with button.setX() and button.setY().

....
Button myButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.);
myButton.setX();
myButton.setY();
....
