android, cannot align icons on the right in listview's row
I am currently working on my first android app. In a listview, I need to have the following organisation in each row:
- On the left: one main icon on which takes the whole height of the row
- On the middle: 2 texts, one below the other
- On the right: 2 icons, one below the other
I end up with a row.xml file like this, but that does not work as I expect. Do you know if something obvious is missing in this file ? Thanks a lot, Luc

Answer 1
In the right-hand-column LinearLayout, add
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:gravity="right"
That should make the icons should fall to the right (because of the gravity setting.)
Answer 2
Consider switching to RelativeLayout for a rule set like you describe. Using LinearLayouts may not work in all cases and will be less efficient than the RelativeLayout in terms of stack consumption.
