Android button outside of a text view - android

What is the best way to achieve the following UI where I want a button to appear "outside" and above a TextView?
Here's what I want to do (expected), the code I've written for it, and how it appears in my emulator (actual).
Expected: the "x" button is outside of the text view
My Layout:
(also, note: I'm inflating the bottom_sheet_layout in a class that extends com.google.android.material.bottomsheet.BottomSheetDialogFragment)
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/bottom_sheet_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:background="#color/blue">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/bottom_sheet_menu_delete"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:text="Delete"
android:textSize="15sp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/bottom_sheet_x"
android:layout_width="24dp"
android:layout_height="24dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_cancel_24dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#id/bottom_sheet_menu_delete"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
Actual:

change the layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf id of Button
move background from parent to TextView

When the part of the view has gone visibility, my screen looks like this:
As you can see, button is placed in the bottom and it's not overlapped by any other views. But when card is expanded, it looks like this:
As you can see, now button overlaps another card, and I need to place button under the card. So, how can I prevent existing behavior and place the button under all cards in the bottom? Thanks in advance, I will appreciate any help!
See below for an updated answer.
Old
I don't see the purpose of ConstraintLayout. You can remove that and place the button as last item in LinearLayout. The XML would then be like:
NestedScrollingView
LinearLayout
CardView ...
CardView ...
AppCompatButton
You can also use ConstraintLayout instead of LinearLayout, but I don't see the need for both.
This introduces a problem: the button is not at the bottom, when the content does not fill out the screen. For an easy fix, you can use ConstraintLayout with appropriate constraints.
New
I suggest you to use a ConstraintLayout. With it, you can achieve a flat layout hierarchy. You can use chains and vertical bias as such:
Chain the first card to the top of your parent
Chain the button to the bottom of your parent
Chain the second card to the bottom of the first card and to the top of the button. Apply a vertical bias of 0.0.
The result:
And the simple code for the example:

mybe you can do this in your item xml n in you recyclerview use layout manager gridview 2 coloums
Like this

How to remain fixed positions of layout after dynamically setting the text?

I'm making an application that gets the categories of foods from a remote database and put them in a recyclerView
but the positions keep changing after setting the text,
I need the "see more" to remain on the right side like this
.
How can I solve this problem?
This is how it looks now
.
That's my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Thanks to CodeRed answer, I found the answer, hope it will help someone else. It was a wrap-content error

I cannot try this myself but I am sure that your android:layout_width in the second LinearLayout is the suspect. As you can see, the See More > is floating in the right however the width itself is restricting it to go further

Constraint layout with wrap_content clips it's content

Recently I've bumped into a strange ConstraintLayout behavior. What I tried to do was a simple layout with ImageView, Button and a TextView. Here's the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:contentDescription="#null"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingEnd="20dp"
android:paddingStart="20dp"
android:text="TEST TEXT"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#id/image"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/button" />
<android.support.v4.widget.Space
android:id="#+id/marginSpacer"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#id/image" />
<Button
android:id="#id/button"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="20dp"
android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_bg"
android:text="BUTTON"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/marginSpacer" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
The ImageView content is loaded using Glide like this:
Glide.with(this).load("https://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~ece533/images/monarch.png").into(imageView);
Here is how I wanted it to look like:
And here's what I actually got:
My intent was to make the text align relative to the button, not the image, how do I make this happen? Why did the ConstraintLayout clip itself to the ImageView? On the other hand, if I align the text relative to the image everything works great and nothing is clipped.

Use this for your Button:
#+id/button
instead of
android:id="#id/button"
You'll be able to design urself.
I would suggest you to add loading image:
.placeholder(R.drawable.ic_error_black_48px)
My Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="81dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:contentDescription="#null" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingEnd="20dp"
android:paddingStart="20dp"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
android:text="TEST TEXT"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#+id/ButtonLayout"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/ButtonLayout" />
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="#+id/ButtonLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#+id/image"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/image">
<View
android:id="#+id/dummyView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="15dp" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="20dp"
android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_bg"
android:text="BUTTON"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/dummyView" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
Preview:
You need to align something to the bottom of the parent
Align TEST TEXT TextView bottom to the bottom of parent like this:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingEnd="20dp"
android:paddingStart="20dp"
android:text="TEST TEXT"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#id/image"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/button" />
And add plus sign in button id
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="20dp"
android:layout_marginStart="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_bg"
android:text="BUTTON"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/marginSpacer" />
Try this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="81dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher_background"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:contentDescription="#null" />
<TextView

android:paddingStart="20dp"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
android:text="TEST TEXT"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#+id/ButtonLayout"
