title: Nested LinearLayout widget design with different weights
body: <p>I have been trying for ages to get the following layout to work for a widget and being inexperienced with layouts it is cause me some grief, at first I had relative layout but it doesn't seem to re-size itself according to phone size and text input.</p>
  
  <p>As you can see below is the layout I want. Boxes 1 to 11. I assume a LinearLayout is the best layout? All the boxes will contain text. Bozes 2, 3 and 4 are half the height of box 1 and boxes 5 and 6 are also half of 1 (sorry it's a bit of a rubbish quick design).</p>
  
  <p>Boxes 8 and 9 are half each of 7 in height so weight wise (as far as I understand) will be 1 each of 7. 7 is half the length and 8 + 9 are the other half (length wise). </p>
  
  <p>10 and 11 are half the width each of width. </p>
  
  <p>Do you think the GridLayout will be better for this bearing in mind that the widths of the boxes can expand or contract by a few digits, for example, if someone selects Fahrenheit instead of Celsius, 100 degrees Fahrenheit will have an extra digit compared to 37 degrees Celsius, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit will be 0 degrees Celsius. Or 200mm of rain to inches will be 8in (shrunk by 2 digits).   </p>
