Android Grid view with 3 rows and 3 columns

Question

I unable to set no. of rows for grid view. Only able to set no. of columns.

I need to create a grid view which has 3 rows and 3 columns.

Can any one help me please.

This is my XML layout code:

<GridView android:id="@+id/gridView" 
   android:layout_width="match_parent" 
   android:layout_height="match_parent" 
   android:numColumns="3" 
   android:gravity="center" 
   android:stretchMode="columnWidth" > 
</GridView>

Thanks in advance, Deepak

If you have fixed number of rows and columns then why don't you go with `TableLayout`! — Paresh Mayani, Jul 17 '14 at 06:21
for columns you can use `android:numColumns` but for rows you must do that in your code — Shayan Pourvatan, Jul 17 '14 at 06:23
it can't be because number of item may increase you can only set one parameter at a time . i think . — Zar E Ahmer, Jul 17 '14 at 06:40
if you need to show only 3 rows,Specify that in gridview adapter getCount(). and print values inside getView() manually. — nithin, Jul 17 '14 at 07:50

Add this attribute to your android XML

android:numColumns="3"

This will allow you to have only 3 columns and give the

android:layout_width="match_parent"

Then add 3 rows may be it will help.

Try it.

@Deepak if you want fixed rows you need get height of gridView then set height of each row to `viewhigh/ 3`, – Shayan Pourvatan Jul 17 '14 at 08:09

to setup the three rows you have to setup total 9 elements in the List or String array and use the ArrayAdapter to create the adapter to the gridView and then with the GridView object call the method setAdapter() and the setAdapter() needs the ArrayAdapter Object as the parameter. – Mohammed Rampurawala Jul 17 '14 at 08:17
