Title Body

I know it must be an easy question... I just don't know how to fix it. So (Just an example), <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <Button android:id="@+id/fakeButton" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_width="match_parent"/> <Button android:id="@+id/saveSearch" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/saveSearch"/> </LinearLayout> This wouldn't work - the first button would make the 2nd invisible. Weights would make it all a percentage game which isn't what I want. Am I being thick? EDIT: I didn't know it, but it seem's the order is important (from answers). Loading a layout is iterative rather than holistic. You can make the first element a fixed height and the rest of the elements will fill what's left. BUT what I need is to make the final element a fixed height.
