I'll wal you through the rest of the challenge: This one is asking Next, we want to position the ImageView directly below the EditText. The question gives you a couple of clues how to achieve this - the code you need to add in the ImageView looks like:
<ImageView
android:layout_below="@id/captionField"
Next task is Now we need to set the scaleType of this ImageView to "fitXY"
<ImageView
.
.
android:scaleType="fitXY"
Last is We need one more attribute in our ImageView to make sure the image scales correctly. Add adjustViewBounds and set it to "true"
<ImageView
.
.
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
. />
I hope that helps,
Steve.
