I'm trying to add an image to my app but it keeps crashing and I can't conclude why.
I have multiple images in my app, but adding this one image seems to be problematic. Here's my xml (EDIT: full xml (This has changed since the original for layout purposes)):
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<Button
android:id="@+id/imageTextButton4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/imageTextButton2"
android:layout_alignRight="@+id/imageTextButton2"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Progress" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_alignRight="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_below="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_marginTop="85dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Meal Plans" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/imageTextButton2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="22dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Your Meals" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="42dp"
android:src="@drawable/logo" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Meal of the Day" />
</RelativeLayout>
And my java code (condensed for brevity):
package com.example.c3347115app;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuInflater;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.content.Intent;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
ImageView image;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);

Can anyone figure out what the problem is? Thanks in advance.
These two lines look problematic to me:
android:layout_above="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_alignRight="@+id/imageTextButton2"
Doesn't the "@+id/" form generate a new id value? Perhaps you meant "@id/"
When crating ids in xml file (using @+id/) You do it just on first occurrence and later You use just @id/
So Your xml should look like this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<Button
android:id="@+id/imageTextButton4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_alignBottom="@id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/imageTextButton2"
android:layout_alignRight="@id/imageTextButton2"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Progress" />
<Button
android:id="@id/imageTextButton3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_alignRight="@id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_below="@id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_marginTop="85dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Meal Plans" />
<Button
android:id="@id/imageTextButton2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="22dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Your Meals" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="42dp"
android:src="@drawable/logo" />
<Button
android:id="@id/imageTextButton1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:drawableTop="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:text="Meal of the Day" />
</RelativeLayout>
