Android Align button to bottom-right of screen using FrameLayout

Question

I am trying to put the zoom controls of the map on the bottom right corner of screen  I could do it with RelativeLayout using both alignParentBottom  true  and alignParentRight  true   but with Framelayout I did not find any such attributes  How do I align it to the bottom-right of screen

I also ran into this situation and figured out how to do it using FrameLayout. The following output is produced by the code given below.

Some right-bottom aligned text showing up over an image using FrameLayout.

              <FrameLayout
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

                    <ImageView
                        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        android:src="@drawable/contactbook_icon"
                        android:layout_gravity="center" />

                    <TextView
                        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        android:text="140"
                        android:textSize="12dp"
                        android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
                        android:layout_gravity="bottom|right"
                        android:layout_margin="15dp" />
                </FrameLayout>

Change the margin value to adjust the text position over the image. Removing margin might make the text to go out of the view sometimes.

You can t do it with FrameLayout   From spec   http   developer android com reference android widget FrameLayout html   FrameLayout is designed to block out an area on the screen to display a single item  You can add multiple children to a FrameLayout  but all children are pegged to the top left of the screen    Why not to use RelativeLayout

Actually it s possible  despite what s being said in other answers  If you have a FrameLayout  and want to position a child item to the bottom  you can use android layout gravity  bottom  and that is going to align that child to the bottom of the FrameLayout    I know it works because I m using it  I know is late  but it might come handy to others since this ranks in the top positions on google
