android:gravity

Gravity setting for positioning the currently selected item.

Must be one or more (separated by '|') of the following constant values.

Constant	Value	Description
`top`	0x30	Push object to the top of its container, not changing its size.
`bottom`	0x50	Push object to the bottom of its container, not changing its size.
`left`	0x03	Push object to the left of its container, not changing its size.
`right`	0x05	Push object to the right of its container, not changing its size.
`center_vertical`	0x10	Place object in the vertical center of its container, not changing its size.
`fill_vertical`	0x70	Grow the vertical size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`center_horizontal`	0x01	Place object in the horizontal center of its container, not changing its size.
`fill_horizontal`	0x07	Grow the horizontal size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`center`	0x11	Place the object in the center of its container in both the vertical and horizontal axis, not changing its size.
`fill`	0x77	Grow the horizontal and vertical size of the object if needed so it completely fills its container.
`clip_vertical`	0x80	Additional option that can be set to have the top and/or bottom edges of the child clipped to its container's bounds. The clip will be based on the vertical gravity: a top gravity will clip the bottom edge, a bottom gravity will clip the top edge, and neither will clip both edges.
`clip_horizontal`	0x08	Additional option that can be set to have the left and/or right edges of the child clipped to its container's bounds. The clip will be based on the horizontal gravity: a left gravity will clip the right edge, a right gravity will clip the left edge, and neither will clip both edges.
`start`	0x00800003	Push object to the beginning of its container, not changing its size.
`end`	0x00800005	Push object to the end of its container, not changing its size.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol gravity.
