Issue
basically, I don't understand how to use RelativeLayout. I don't know how to design it. I always use LinearLayout with Table inside of it. Now I use RelativeLayout for my design. I want to know, how to add text "Sorry, no list available" Below is my current code of XML
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/haha"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".MyHistoryList">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:gravity="center"
android:longClickable="false"
android:maxLines="1"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TableRow
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="15dp"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/tvSuggestion"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight=".80"
android:gravity="start"
android:text="Suggestion"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textAppearance="@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium"
android:textColor="@color/colorAccent"
android:textStyle="bold"
app:fontFamily="@font/anaheim" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/tvStatus"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight=".20"
android:gravity="start"
android:text="Status"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textAppearance="@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium"
android:textColor="@color/colorAccent"
android:textStyle="bold"
app:fontFamily="@font/anaheim" />
</TableRow>
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="@+id/huhu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="@+id/recylcerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:visibility="gone" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imgEmpty"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:src="@drawable/empty"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
This is how it looks like

But, I want to add text "Sorry, no list available" below of the image (marginTop = 20dp). Can anyone help?
Solution
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_below="@id/imgEmpty"
android:text="Sorry, no list available"/>
Insert it below your ImageView of RelativeLayout!
