How do I align a radio button horizontally?

To make a horizontal radio button set, add the data-type="horizontal" to the fieldset . The framework will float the labels so they sit side-by-side on a line, hide the radio button icons and only round the left and right edges of the group.

Should radio buttons be horizontal or vertical?

Vertical positioning of radio buttons is safer. Try to lay out your lists vertically, with one choice per line. If you still need a horizontal layout with multiple options per line, make sure to space the buttons and labels so that it's absolutely clear which choice goes with which label.

What are the methods of radio button in Android?

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.

How do I toggle radio button in Android?

If you are only using one radio box for checking on and off, maybe you should use checkbox or toggle button instead. Scroll down and see checkbox and toggle button. When using radios you usually have more than one and choose between them.

To place a radiogroup (or any other view) above other just do:

android:layout_above="@+id/view_below" 

To change the orientation just set:

android:orientation="horizontal" 

And to give equal width to items make use of layout_weight:

<RadioGroup     android:id="@+id/radio_group"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:orientation="horizontal"     android:layout_above="@+id/view_below" >      <RadioButton         android:id="@+id/radio1"         android:layout_width="0dp"         android:layout_weight="1"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:checked="true"         android:text="First" />      <RadioButton         android:id="@+id/radio2"         android:layout_width="0dp"         android:layout_weight="1"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:text="Second" /> </RadioGroup>
