I have created a layout using a ScrollView which has a PercentRelativeLayout as its child. It doesn\'t work on Lollipop and older devices but works
The question as I understand it is: I want these TextViews to be 50% width of parent view.
Way that works for me is:
Then allign the View(s) to that. Either the RelativeLayout or the TextViews. You lose the control (if you ever had it) over the percentage of the RelativeLayout. I tend to go with things like:
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
Does this help?
