how to put layout in middle of the screen?

[chen young]

Hi All,

How can I cause to the LinearLayout to be placed in the middle of the screen and not at the top ?

Thanks

    
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:id="@+id/appentry"
  android:orientation="horizontal"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent"
  android:gravity="center"
  android:background="@color/white">
  <Button
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:background="@drawable/leftlogo"
		android:layout_gravity="left"
		android:textColor="@color/red"/>
  <Button
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:background="@drawable/rightlogo"
		android:layout_gravity="right"
		android:textColor="@color/white"/>
</LinearLayout>

try android:gravity="center_vertical" on the LinearLayout...

[Edit] Since your buttons don't fill up the horizontal space, you'll need to align to center both vertically and horizontally. Try this: android:gravity="center|center_vertical"

this is working for me ...

    
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout 
	xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
	android:layout_width="wrap_content"  
	android:layout_height="fill_parent"
	android:background="@color/white">
	<LinearLayout
  		xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  		android:id="@+id/appentry"
  		android:orientation="horizontal"
  		android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  		android:gravity="center"
  		android:layout_centerInParent="true">
  		<Button
			android:layout_width="wrap_content"
			android:layout_height="wrap_content"
			android:background="@drawable/leftlogo"
			android:layout_gravity="left"
			android:textColor="@color/red"/>
  		<Button
			android:layout_width="wrap_content"
			android:layout_height="wrap_content"
			android:background="@drawable/rightlogo"
			android:layout_gravity="right"
			android:textColor="@color/white"/>
	</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Thanks
