I have a design request to make a text be the center of the screen but not to overlap buttons on the sides. those buttons might appear or not. This is the design:

The problem is when the text is long, this bad thing happens:

But I want it to be like this:

>Solution :

You can use Guideline for this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout 
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">


<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.Guideline
    android:id="@+id/guideline1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    app:layout_constraintGuide_percent="0.4"/>

<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.Guideline
    android:id="@+id/guideline2"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    app:layout_constraintGuide_percent="0.6"/>

<View
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="40dp"
    android:background="@android:color/holo_blue_light"
    app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@+id/guideline1"
    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

<View
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="40dp"
    app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@id/guideline2"
    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
    android:background="@android:color/holo_blue_light"/>

<TextView
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="sjkelf hue hwe fhwefh wehwe hwe hwef "
    app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@id/guideline1"
    app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="@id/guideline2"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"/>


</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

It looks like this:
