User Input pliz assistn me

Now we need to set the scaleType of this ImageView to "fitXY" so that it fills the width of the screen and keeps its aspect ratio.

activity_main.xml 
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/captionField"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageView1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_below="@id/captionField"
        android:scapeType="fitXy"
        android:src="@drawable/grumpy_cat" />


</RelativeLayout>

You wrote fitXy instead of fitXY with Capital X and Y
