Linear Layout
In a linear layout, like the name suggests, all the elements are displayed in a linear fashion(below is an example of the linear layouts), either Horizontally or Vertically and this behavior is set in android:orientation which is an attribute of the node LinearLayout.
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical"> .... </LinearLayout>OR<LinearLayout android:orientation=“horizontal"> .... </LinearLayout>
Linear Layout
Relative Layout
In a relative layout every element arranges itself relative to other elements or a parent element.
As an example, lets consider the layout defined below. The “Cancel” button is placed relatively, to the right of the “Login” button parallel. Here is the code snippet that achieves the mentioned alignment (Right of Login button parallel)
