Java android: appending a newline using TextView

Question

I just want to add a new line somehow to my linear layout:

layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById (R.id.layout);  

... //some other code where I\'ve appended          


        

Answer 1

If you just want to have some empty space between two other views, you could do this in your XML (assuming you're using XML for the layout). Something like this could work, basically putting in a View with a transparent background and given height. This is assuming you have whatever parameters you want in your TextViews.

Also, in what you tried above... you could try a space and newline... that might work.

nline.setText(" \n");
