I have three buttons

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Красный" android:gravity="center" android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Зелёный" android:gravity="center"/> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Синий" android:gravity="center" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/> </LinearLayout>

How to make, what the first button would be from above, the second - in the center, and the third from below?

    You can add views between the buttons, which will take all the remaining space on the screen, by dividing it equally with the help of weight:

     <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Красный" android:gravity="center" android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/> <Space android:layout_height="0dp" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_weight="1"/> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Зелёный" android:gravity="center"/> <Space android:layout_height="0dp" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_weight="1"/> <Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="Синий" android:gravity="center" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/> </LinearLayout>

    Or replace their parents with RelativeLayout and set the property for the middle button

     android:centerInParent="true" 
       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"> <Button android:text="Button1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button1" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" /> <Button android:text="Button2" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button2" android:layout_centerVertical="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" /> <Button android:text="Button3" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button3" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" /> </RelativeLayout>
