Use the android:orientation="horizontal" -attribute of the RadioGroup.
RadioButton is a two states button which is either checked or unchecked. If a single radio button is unchecked, we can click it to make checked radio button. Once a radio button is checked, it cannot be marked as unchecked by user. RadioButton is generally used with RadioGroup.
You can check the current state of a radio button programmatically by using isChecked() method. This method returns a Boolean value either true or false. if it is checked then returns true otherwise returns false. Below is an example code with explanation in which we checked the current state of a radio button.
Radio buttons are a common way to allow users to make a single selection from a list of options. Since only one radio button can be selected at a time (within the same group), each available choice must be its own item and label.
So what about that:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#FFFFFF">
<RadioGroup
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:checkedButton="@+id/view_completehistroy_rb"
android:id="@+id/timeframe_group">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<RadioButton
android:id="@+id/view_completehistroy_rb"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:text="Complete History"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16sp" />
<RadioButton
android:id="@+id/view_daterange_history_rb"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="@+id/view_completehistroy_rb"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:text="From"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16sp" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/view_daterange_history_rb"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"
android:layout_marginRight="5dip"
android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/view_daterange_history_rb"
android:text="test1"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16sp" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"
android:layout_marginRight="5dip"
android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/textView1"
android:text="test2"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RadioGroup>
</LinearLayout>
On my phone it looks like this:
--- some more words to my answer ---
So well, I think the point is a misunderstanding with the LinearLayout. That one does only support placing view Elements in a row. If you want to have View-Elements that are related to eachother you need the Relative Layout. The RelativeLayout has a attributes like
android:layout_below="@+id/XXXXX"
which is a setting for a relative position to other view elements. So using this you can say that one element (like the TextView) is supposed to be below/above/leftTo/rightTo another view. That was just the point. I hope that makes it easier to understand.
Here you go. Its not an answer to the question. But it can solve your issue. YOu can set text of a radio button as follows...
RadioButton radBtn=(RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.view_daterange_history_rb);
radBtn.setText("From 20/12/2000 to 21/12/2012");
XML

android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RadioGroup
android:id="@+id/timeframe_group"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:checkedButton="@+id/view_completehistroy_rb"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<!-- View complete history Radio Button -->
<RadioButton
android:id="@+id/view_completehistroy_rb"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Complete History"

android:textSize="16sp" />
