How to programmatically set style attribute in a view

Question

I\'m getting a view from the XML with the code below:

Button view = (Button) LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.section_button, null);

Answer 1

I faced the same problem recently. here is how i solved it.

• I used a LinearLayout with android:weightSum="2"
• I gave to the two child elements android:layout_weight="1" (I gave each 50% of the parent space(width & height))
• And finally, i gave the two child element different background colors to have the final effect.

Thanks !
