Problem in some views in items row of recyclerview "not showing like design preview"

I trying to practice some android lessons that contains recyclerview topic, currently I succeed to implement all api and response but there's one problem with my item_article_preview.xml.
The title and description of news doesn't shows in emulator like it's in design preview
After running the app
here's my xml row
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I found the problem causes this spilled of screen, here in this line
val binding = ItemRowBinding.inflate(LayoutInflater.from(parent.context))
you just inflated the inflater of a parent but there are two parameters is missing,
the viewGroup which it "parent and attachToRoot = false
edit your onCreateViewHolder like this
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ArticleViewHolder {
val inflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context)
val binding = ItemRowBinding.inflate(inflater,parent,false)
return ArticleViewHolder(binding)
}

In the design tab, everything looks fine :
However, the problem arises in real devices :
However, if I add a view like this, the items cover the entire screen :
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="2dp"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/like_btn" />
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance !!

I believe the problem is here:
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): FeedViewHolder {
return FeedViewHolder(ItemFeedBinding.inflate(LayoutInflater.from(parent.context)))
}
Because you are calling the overload of inflate() that does not specify a parent view, your item view's layout params are being ignored. Change it to this instead:
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): FeedViewHolder {
return FeedViewHolder(ItemFeedBinding.inflate(LayoutInflater.from(parent.context), parent, false))
}

you problem is
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
<TextView
android:id="#+id/post_content"
style="#style/SubHeading"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
android:gravity="start"
android:text="#{post.content}"
android:textAlignment="viewStart"
android:textSize="20sp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/username"
tools:text="Anything random ...." />
you must set fixedHeight or use maxLines and set width to match_parent
also remove this line android:textAlignment="viewStart"

TextView in ConstraintLayout (for MaterialCardView) not in vertical centre

I'm trying to vertically align my TextView to the centre using constraints within my MaterialCardView but it won't move at all for some reason. Does anyone know what's causing this problem to occur? Do constraints need to be used at all to achieve this? The affected component is the MaterialCardView with a white border. The word 'Information' + the drawable don't seem to be exactly in the vertical centre for some reason. It looks like there is a bit more space above the text view than below it for some strange reason (indicated by the orange line).

val htmlTxt = "<img src=\"door\"/> $info
val myTxt = Html.fromHtml(htmlTxt, Html.FROM_HTML_MODE_COMPACT, imageGetter, null)

}
}

Just remove app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.0"
The maximum is app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="1.0"
When you set "0.0" that mean you want it to the left and when it is "1.0" that mean it is to the right.

When anything is not selected it is fine:
When an item is selected from the spinner, the checkbox disappears:
There is nothing else in the layout file. Just the constraint layout and the guidelines for the checkbox and spinner. The spinner and the checkbox are initialized in the onCreateView of the fragment. The checkbox disappears when I select any item from the spinner. Please help.

I think the problem is about your setting value about constraintLayout options like :
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/spinner_view"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
I think that was wrong in some cases.
Then for simple example i removed guidelines and i solved it.
You can use this approach and add your guidelines.

xLayoutManager.stackFromEnd = true
marktplaats_recyclerview.layoutManager = xLayoutManager
marktplaats_recyclerview.adapter = MarktplaatsAdapter(products)
}
}
}
Does anyone have a solution for this awkward problem? I've been trying to do some restructuring of the swiperefreshlayout, scrollviews and constraints but no succes so far.
I also can't find anything on the internet where someone wants the same as me...

As per your question description, I am assuming that you face an issue that recycler view scroll or take focus automatically while you open screen and you need to stick layout at the top so pass this field on your parent layout.
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
or replace your SwipeRefreshLayout
<androidx.swiperefreshlayout.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
android:id="#+id/marktplaats_refresh"
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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
I hope it helps you.
