[android-developers] Re: Fill-remainder layout?

I really think what you're trying to do is most easily expressed as a
LinearLayout (itself using width and height to fill parent) using the
layout_weight property to make the middle view grab any extra space.
If found that it's easy to go overboard with a verbose RelativeLayout
when all that's needed is a LinearLayout (and it's probably runs
faster to boot).
