Which in general is an imageview that takes the whole screen and acts as a background image, the above it i have a linearlayout (MainLinearLayout) that hold vertically a textview, an imagebutton (AngryImageButton) and another linearlayout (BottomLinearLayout) that is just display a small image (like the logo) horizontally centered.
I want to be able to change programatically the size of the AngryImageButton and the BottomLinearLayout to be displayed in the bottom of the screen and to be always visible. I mean to be on top of the other views.
Right now the BottomLinearLayout appears in the center and below the MainLinearLayout and if i make the AngryImageButton very large, it pushes below the BottomLinearLayout until its not visible in the screen at all, i don't want that. I want it to be at the bottom, and always visible.
How i can accomplish that? Also i want the layout to work in both orientations
