Margins on children of a RelativeLayout behave very much like coordinates.

RelativeLayout layout = new RelativeLayout();
ImageView iv = new ImageView( getBaseContext() );

[...]

MarginLayoutParams mlp = new MarginLayoutParams( width, height );
mlp.setMargins( left, 0, 0, 0 );
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams( mlp );
layout.addView( iv, lp );
