When I use percentage value the application crashed

I want to set my button width with percentage value. I searched and read that I should using ConstrainLayout, But when I using app:layout_constraintWidth_percent instead of layout_width for my width of button the application crashed.

The code

I try ConstraintLayout and I was expecting it be worked.

CodePudding user response:

Add this attribute to your widget which you want to define width with constraintWidth_percent:

android:layout_width="0dp"

Each element should have both layout_width and layout_height. When you want to make width or height dynamic and dependent on other elements, you should set the element's related property to "0dp".
