3. Frame Layout

4. Frame layout
• Frame layouts are one of the simplest and
most efficient types of layouts used by
Android developers to organize view controls.
They are used less often than some other
layouts, simply because they are generally
used to display only one view, or views which
overlap.

5. • Frame layouts are very simple, which makes
them very efficient. They can be defined
within XML layout resources or
programmatically in the application’s Java
code. A child view within a frame layout is
always drawn relative to the top left-hand
corner of the screen. If multiple child views
exist, then they are drawn, in order, one atop
the other. This means that the first view
added to the frame layout will display on the
bottom of the stack, and the last view added
will display on top.
