Activity performance with conditional visibility gone/visible

I have a fragment that contains a LinearLayout that is conditionally displayed or not. In terms of performance what is the best? Mark the LinearLayout as android:visibility="gone" in the XML, and then in code I set its visibility if needed, or the opposite?

Solution

  • Inflating a layout with some views with a visibility set to GONE is bad for performances, especially if the view is a bit complex.
