Eclipse- Android app I am trying to make a menu of "square" buttons - 3 buttons in a row - Each button has a background image ...
I was able to make the columns of equal weight , but I can't figure out how to make the heights of the buttons to be always equal to their widths, given that: - I will add more rows to the application in the future, so I dont want the layout to be specific to a certain number of rows ; i.e.: whatever the number of rows are, the buttons should be square (on any device screen size, of course) - I want the background images to adjust themselves to the buttons ; i.e: the button remains a square and the background image conforms to it
This is my code so far: (just three rows with the same bg image
