Can I put radio buttons above an ImageView in a ScrollView?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

It is possible to position radio buttons above an ImageView within a ScrollView by utilizing different layout strategies. The recommended approaches include using a RelativeLayout with the android:layout_above attribute, a LinearLayout with the android:layout_weight attribute, or a FrameLayout with the android:layout_gravity attribute. These methods allow for flexible positioning without hardcoding dimensions, ensuring compatibility across various device models.

TL;DR
I'd like to set an ImageView as the background for radio buttons. It only works if I hardcode the width and height of the ImageView. If I set the height and width to "match_parent", the ImageView is visible, but not the radio buttons.
Hi everyone

I'd like to set an ImageView background for a menu screen that uses ScrollView, ConstrainedLayout and Radio Buttons. This is possible if I hardcode the width and height of the ImageView, but I don't want to do this because it might ruin the formatting on some models of phone.

I'd like to set the dimensions to "match_parent" or "wrap_content", but if I do this, only the ImageView is visible. The Radio Buttons aren't visible at all.

Is there a way around this? I've tried putting the code for the ImageView inside the Radio Group, and it doesn't help.

My xml code for the menu is below.

Thanks

Yes, it is possible to put radio buttons above an ImageView in a ScrollView. One solution could be to use a RelativeLayout instead of a ConstraintLayout, and then use the android:layout_above attribute to position the radio buttons above the ImageView. Another solution could be to use a LinearLayout and use the android:layout_weight attribute to adjust the height of the ImageView and the radio buttons. You could also try using a FrameLayout and using the android:layout_gravity attribute to position the views. Experiment with different layouts and attributes to find the best solution for your specific needs.
