GridLayout (not GridView) how to stretch all children evenly

Question

I want to have a 2x2 grid with a buttons inside. This is only ICS so I am trying to use the new GridLayout given.

Here\'s the XML of my layout:

 <         


        

Answer 1

Result :

Try something like this :

    final int MAX_COLUMN = gridView.getColumnCount(); //5
    final int MAX_ROW = gridView.getRowCount(); //7
    final int itemsCount = MAX_ROW * MAX_COLUMN; //35

    int row = 0, column = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < itemsCount; i++) {
        ImageView view = new ImageView(this);

        //Just to provide alternate colors
        if (i % 2 == 0) {
            view.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
        } else {
            view.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);
        }

        GridLayout.LayoutParams params = new GridLayout.LayoutParams(GridLayout.spec(row, 1F), GridLayout.spec(column, 1F));
        view.setLayoutParams(params);
        gridView.addView(view);

        column++;

        if (column >= MAX_COLUMN) {
            column = 0;
            row++;
        }
    }

If you want specific width and height for your cells, then use :

     params.width = 100; // Your width
     params.height = 100; //your height
