Android ProgressBar size take whole screen

I'm trying to implement an Android ProgressBar but its size is taking the whole screen. I've followed a couple of examples but it didn't make any effect.

Here is my code

<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progress"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:indeterminate="false"
android:padding="45dp"
android:visibility="gone" />

The ProgressBar is taking the whole screen size, probably because you've set the layout-width and/or layout-height to match-parent.

layout-width

layout-height

match-parent

So try changing those.

Or, if you set the layout-width and layout-height to 0dp on a ConstraintLayout, then make sure you're not setting the Constraints to parent on all / opposite sides.

layout-width

layout-height

ConstraintLayout

parent

If you're using a LinearLayout, and if you've set either the layout-width or layout-height to 0dp, then make sure you aren't setting the layout-weight to a size that's too different from the layout-weight of the other widgets of the layout.

LinearLayout

layout-width

layout-height

layout-weight

layout-weight

Hope this helped. Next time, please post your code or even a screenshot. That makes it a lot easier for all of us.
