so there is imgDeleteStocks which is inside LinearLayout which is inside my CustomRelativeLayout so I want to set imgDeleteStocks gravity to TOP pls help me

Can u plz add image of screen how currently it is displaying? — Hello World, Aug 08 '16 at 05:41
You just set android:layout_gravity="center_vertical", what do you mean to set imageview on top? — S.W., Aug 08 '16 at 05:43
To set it programmatically, you may use a tricky method to wrap the imageview by relativelayout inside the linear layout, and use RelativeLayout.LayoutParams to align your imageview to top — S.W., Aug 08 '16 at 05:46
I am asking that only but not sure how please give me proper answer — eLemEnt, Aug 08 '16 at 05:47

Wrap your ImageView with a relativeLayout

 <RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/imgDeleteStocks_rl"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
    android:layout_weight="1" >

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/imgDeleteStocks"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:visibility="visible" />
</RelativeLayout>

Add program code

ImageView iv = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imgDeleteStocks);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams)iv.getLayoutParams();
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP);
iv.setLayoutParams(lp);

To be aware, the relative layout's layout_height must be match_parent — S.W., Aug 08 '16 at 06:32
In your xml code, you have not set weightsum, therefore, simply modify android:layout_width="0dp" to android:layout_width="wrap_content" and remove android:layout_weight="1" — S.W., Aug 08 '16 at 06:34

Try this:

LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
layoutParams.gravity = Gravity.TOP;
imgDeleteStocks.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

Just suggestion, I will recommend using LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = (LinearLayout.LayoutParams ) imgDeleteStocks.getLayoutParams(); instead of LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); – S.W.
