While running the application the design layout is not same as in the preview as all the widgets are overlapping at the top-left corner no matter where I place them.
Can we see your code please.
Perhaps you're using a Relativelayout without specifying the position with its attribute.
can you provide you xml code.
and in my case i faced the same issue. when i using the relative layout. just use linear layout and check it again...

There are two problems that I have using the EnhancedDateRangePicker in Vaadin 14(source: https://vaadin.com/directory/component/date-range-picker):
The design is broken when I add the component somewhere in a layout but that happens only when I add a label. If I don't the design is as expected to be. Here is a screenshot to see what exactly happens -
The other problem is that the dash is not visible clearly in this color(light gray I think). Is there a way to change the color of the dash?
Could you please tell me is there any way to make the design as I mentioned in the above two points?
Thanks in advance :).
The problem is solved. It's not the problem with the component, it is actually the Theme which we are using in our projects and the component just overrides the theme styles and that brokes the component. When I put it in a blank page there is no problem. Thanks you all very much for the effort :).
I'm generating Views inside FlexBox layout by pressing the Start button. As you can see every item on even line has random size. It works almost as it supposed to be but there is a problem, I need to get rid of vertical gaps between two vertically adjacent views. I've tried all properties of Flex Box Layout but didn't find one that can help to solve my problem. I will be happy if you help me to solve this problem.
I've solved this problem. If you have the same task you should use Relative Layout and its' flags inside your android code. It'll give you all control under the positions of Views. If it will be necessary I can expand this answer to provide more detail.
I tried to use UMLDesigner to draw my project related diagrams. I see there is a Arrange functionality that can automatically layout diagram elements and links to save some manual work. But when i used it in my Activity diagrams it designed it upside down.
Here is an example. I created following simple activity diagram.
And here is how auto layout result for the same model looks like: auto layout.
The initial node is at the bottom and the final nodes are on top. But i want it the other way - to start at the top and end at the bottom. Is there a way to configure this?
I tried pinning starting and final nodes but it just made a mess after arranging the rest automatically. I searched the settings but couldn't find anything. I use UML Designer Version 7.1.0.
Thanks ahead for any help.
I am sorry there is no way from the preferences to change this behaviour.
This is because I never provide a specific layout for this diagram. Please, fill an issue in the bug tracker and it will be fixed for the next version of UML Designer as it is really easy to fix: https://github.com/ObeoNetwork/UML-Designer/issues.
Thanks for your feedback!
Okay, so I'm really trying to do a lab for a class thing and I don't get why I can't have a textbox that takes up the width of the phone and a button that takes up the width of the phone on the bottom, but I don't know why that is? Here's a picture of what I have.
I know this is a noob question but it hasn't been addressed yet on the online course I'm taking and I really need an answer because I wanted android development to be as easy as .NET on windows.
Well anyway here is one picture:
Also here is the other picture:
Notice if I try to make one element bigger, it leads to it pushing the other one out of the activity, I want to have one activity with both elements taking up the entire width of the phone.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
EDIT: I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 not Mac OS X.
Your controls are children of a LinearLayout with android:orientation="horizontal". This means that the parent ViewGroup is aligning them horizontally; you cannot get the children aligned vertically in this configuration.
If you change the attribute to android:orientation="vertical", you will achieve the result you're looking for.
I strongly suggest getting yourself familiar with the default set of layouts available in the Android SDK by reading this official guide.
Edit : Please refer to this answer for placing views at bottom of the screen.
When you use a android:orientation=horizontal orientation in the layout, the views are stacked/placed in a single row. Since both your views have their width set to fill the screen, only the first one is shown/seen.
What you want is the vertical orientation. This places the views in a single column, one below the other. The width set to fill-parent will allow you the view to occupy all available space.

Basically, I have an usercontrol as main container, inside which I have a few groupboxes and buttons. But, my interface controls will not be resized and positioned properly as what I expect in design interface.
I've already tried to change the anchor and dock properties but none of them serve my purpose.
I searched online and found something called viewbox in WPF, I'm wondering if there is something like "viewbox" in visual studio 2010?
Please help!
Try using TableLayoutPanel container and put your controls in it. It is similar to the idea of table in HTML where it is divided to rows and columns each one of them can be set to either a set of pixels or a percentage. Usually if you want to use re-sizable form, usually you should have a control that will give you good results when stretching such as image, multiline textbox etc... In addition, put the dock property to fill to get the stretching you want.
I hope this info was useful for you.
