If you want to add Buttons to the bottom of your android layout XML file you can achieve it using attribute layout_gravity on LinearLayout or TableRow layout. Below your Parent Layout tag add a LinearLayout or TableRow with attribute android:layout_gravity="bottom".
Just add layout_weight="1" to in your linearLayout which having Buttons. adding anroid:layout_weight="1" does not move the linear layout (and buttons) down to the bottom...
FrameLayout is designed to block out an area on the screen to display a single item. Generally, FrameLayout should be used to hold a single child view, because it can be difficult to organize child views in a way that's scalable to different screen sizes without the children overlapping each other.
We can align a view in center of the FrameLayout by setting the layout_gravity of the child view.
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
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.
<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.
It can be achieved using RelativeLayout
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView
android:src="@drawable/icon"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
Setting android:layout_gravity="bottom|right" worked for me
