I want to position an element at the bottom of the screen in Absolute Layout in NativeScript.
I have this code:
<AbsoluteLayout>
<maps:mapView
left="0"
top="0"
width="100%"
height="100%"
latitude="{{ map.latitude }}"
longitude="{{ map.longitude }}"
zoom="{{ map.zoom }}"
padding="{{ map.padding }}"
mapReady="onMapReady"
coordinateTapped="onCoordinateTapped"
markerSelect="onMarkerSelect"
shapeSelect="onShapeSelect"
cameraChanged="onMapCameraChanged"/>
<ScrollView
left="0"
top="0"
width="100%"
orientation="horizontal">
<!-- More XML -->
</ScrollView>
<StackLayout
left="0"
bottom="0"
width="100%"
visibility="visible"
orientation="horizontal"
style="background-color: red;">
<Label text="TITLE"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</AbsoluteLayout>
I figured out that there is no bottom attribute for AbsoluteLayout... Here is the picture of what I want to create:
So how to arange items like in the picture, especially the bottom one?
EDIT: I should note that dimensions of this bottom rectangle may not be always same....
Another option is using FlexboxLayout in your AbsoluteLayout container like this:
<FlexboxLayout flexDirection="column" justifyContent="space-between" height="100%">
<ScrollView
width="100%"
orientation="horizontal">
<!-- More XML -->
</ScrollView>
<StackLayout
width="100%"
visibility="visible"
orientation="horizontal"
style="background-color: red;">
<Label text="TITLE"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</FlexboxLayout>
This is the absolute best solution, got it from one of the devs: https://github.com/NativeScript/NativeScript/issues/5591#issuecomment-482640921
<GridLayout rows="*,auto">
<ItemTakingFullScreen rowSpan="2"/>
<ItemShownUnder row="1"/>
<ItemShownAbove row="1">
</GridLayout>
Basically, you can use grid layout and have a item take up multiple grid spaces, sharing them with some other item.
