title: Can't move items in a linearlayout
body: <p>I created a linear vertical layout, but when I add items to it, I can only move it up or down or increase the size to the right :</p>
  
  <p>Screenshot of my layout</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Xf8vF.jpg" alt="Screenshot of my layout"></p>
  
  <p>I'm not even sure how I got my textview to be padded on the left side!
  I tried padding, which does work BUT surely there is something I am doing wrong which is stopping me from moving the items around with a bit more control?</p>
  
  <p>my xml :</p>
