8,483 PointsHello, I had the same issue. The dependency here is coming from the way how the other two components are assigned (to relative layout or other elements). In this case textView's needs to be assigned as following:
top one:
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
bottom one:
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
It is also important that non of above textView will be assigned to the listView. In my layout it looks as following:
<ListView android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:id="@android:id/list" android:layout_alignParentTop="false" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" android:layout_alignParentStart="true" android:layout_below="@+id/thisWeekLabel" android:layout_above="@+id/locationLabel" android:layout_marginTop="8dp" android:layout_marginBottom="8dp" android:divider="@null" android:dividerHeight="0dp"/>
Thanks, Hubert
