How to give only bottom border to RelativeLayout in Android

I have created a relative layout in which it requires only bottom border. How can I do that? Below is the RelativeLayout that I have used.

I have added view inside relative layout but it shows at bottom of screen

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#EAEAEA"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/auth_lbl_register_text"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"

You need to specify android:layout_height="N" where N is your height in dp when using android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/relativeLayoutOne"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="200dp">
    <!-- Bottom Border shows -->
    <View android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_height="1dp"
        android:background="#F00"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"/>
</RelativeLayout>

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/relativeLayoutTwo"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <TextView
        android:text="Text View 1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/relativeLayoutThree"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <TextView
        android:text="Text View 2"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>

You can add a new ImageView to your RelativeLayout, set the height to 1 px, align it to the bottom, then this ImageView can be 'considered' as the border.

pleas see following xml:

<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="55dp" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txtCategoryName"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_weight="0.9"
        android:background="#ffffff"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:paddingLeft="0dp"
        android:text="Register"
        android:textColor="@color/labelColor"
        android:textSize="20dp"
        android:textStyle="normal" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imgArrow"
        android:layout_width="40dp"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:src="@drawable/line_arrow" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imgBorder"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="1px"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" 
        android:background="#ff0000"/>
</RelativeLayout>

@inner_class7 is correct, you need to give a value as the height of the RelativeLayout, or, it will show on the bottom of the screen.

You can use View to give bottom border to your RelativeLayout.

Add this in your RelativeLayout.

<View
     android:id="@+id/view"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="2dp"
     android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
     android:background="@color/black" />

I hope it helps!
