Adding Margins To Button Object Programatically

Need to set left margin to a button object programatically. This is the code segment: RelativeLayout rl = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.for_button); MarginLayoutParams ml = ne

Solution 1:

Alright, I'm gonna give this a shot IronBlossom; this is how I do it and I hope it works:

LinearLayout myLinearLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.my_linear_layout);
Button myButton = new Button(this);
// more myButton attribute setting here like text etc //

LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
params.setMargins(5,0,0,0);
myLinearLayout.addView(myButton, params);

best,
