Please show your code. – Giusto

If you have fixed number of rows and columns then why don't you go with TableLayout! – Platinous

for columns you can use android:numColumns but for rows you must do that in your code – Electromechanical

<GridView android:id="@+id/gridView" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:numColumns="3" android:gravity="center" android:stretchMode="columnWidth" > </GridView> – Klaipeda

it can't be because number of item may increase you can only set one parameter at a time . i think . – Billie

if you need to show only 3 rows,Specify that in gridview adapter getCount(). and print values inside getView() manually. – Lever

Answer 1

Add this attribute to your android XML

android:numColumns="3"

This will allow you to have only 3 columns and give the

android:layout_width="match_parent"

Then add 3 rows may be it will help.

Try it.

zeus, thanks for you quick response. But how to add 3 rows. thats what my question :( – Klaipeda

@Deepak if you want fixed rows you need get height of gridView then set height of each row to viewhigh/ 3, – Electromechanical

to setup the three rows you have to setup total 9 elements in the List or String array and use the ArrayAdapter to create the adapter to the gridView and then with the GridView object call the method setAdapter() and the setAdapter() needs the ArrayAdapter Object as the parameter. – Looselimbed
