LinearLayout suitable to another LinearLayout

I have two linear layout inside constrainLayout,
The bottom linear layout includes buttons and its height is wrap_content and must be wrap, because sometimes I keep only 1 button and sometimes 2 buttons.
I would like to set height of the top linearLayout to max but without covering the 2nd layout.
So I decided to set match_parent to the first, but after that it covers the 2nd layout.
I can't use weight/weightsum

try this added weight sum and weight to make layout in prportion

Since you are using ConstraintLayout, you can set the height of the first LinearLayout to 0dp. The ConstraintLayout interprets it as "match constraints".
The next step would be to properly define the constraints of the first LinearLayout (which you did).
You can read more about ConstraintLayout here.

To do this you have to use a combination of linearlayout as parent and attribute layoutWeight ,If you use a constant value for layoutWeight for both top layout and button's container , then this will lead to some problem on different screen height devices , instead this solution make you able to set your buttons height as big as enough by setting its container's height to wrapContent and give all top area for the layout content .
You can also make the top linearLayout scrollable to get the best experience possible :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/this_layout_will_fil_all_space_except_the_bottom_layout_space"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#000000"
android:layout_weight="1">
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/button_layout_at_bottom"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="10dp">
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button1"
android:layout_marginEnd="50dp"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/button2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button2"
android:visibility="visible" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
For Buttons , you can set its width to wrapContent and add gravity attribute to its parent as above , in this way even if one buttons was gone , the other will fit perfectly in the center of the container .
Enjoy !

The main advantage of using ConstraintLayout is to avoid using any other nested ViewGroups, The more you add more hierarchy in layout, the less performance you'll have. You can check documentation for more.
So for performance wise it's better to add widgets/views directly within the ConstraintLayout.
So, here I removed the bottom LinearLayout, and kept only the buttons directly within the ConstraintLayout, you can do the same for the top LinearLayout, you can just add any underlying views directly to the ConstraintLayout

Sticky view with vertical scrolling using constraint layout or any other way in android

The red portion is wrap content and can be expanded, depends on how much data it contains. The green part/view always sticks between red and white. The screen is vertically scrollable.
THE attached XML code having scrollview and layout weight but it divides the screen into two parts from the middle, which is not as per the requirement.
Please suggest how to achieve this.

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" //Red Portion
android:orientation="vertical"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView
android:id="#+id/green_sticky_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/redPortion" //Green Sticky View
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#+id/redPortion"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
/>
<LinearLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" //White Portion

app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/redPortion"

Use any layout you want for your red, white and green views.
I hope This helps.

Translucent overlay shows different effects on different views

I have an AppBarLayout, LinearLayout and a BottomNavigationView. I want to add a translucent white overlay above all of them but i don't know why i get this slightly grey color above my AppBarLayout and LinearLayout. Is this because of the different elevations the views have? Is it possible to get the same effect it does on my BottomNavigationView on my two other layouts without changing their elevations?

Using elevation attribute for sibling views causes views to hide each other based on the z-order you gave them. To overcome this issue I would change my layout hierarchy to a non-flat state which is kind of a dirty approach considering the ConstraintLayout purpose (flat view hierarchy). If you found a better way feel free to share it.
So to do that move your overlay out of its parent and remove the elevation:
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

doing this layer work and can't figure out how to put layers below ones I made when the android orientation is horizontal, it keeps pushing my layer to the outsidie I have a pics what I have done and how it has to look, if you have any ideas would be nice to hear, thank you in advance.How it has to look

app:layout_constraintTop_toStartOf
app:layout_constraintTop_toRightOf

it should look like this

Use 2 seperate LinearLayout one below other in root.
One for horigontal views. Second for vertical views.
And use weight_sum property in LinearLayout, along with weight property in child views to distribute child views eqally.

align view on top and buttons in bottom

I need to achieve the following view
I tried using constraint layout:
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#id/segmentedButton">
</FrameLayout>
<Buttons
android:id="#+id/segmentedButton"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent">
</Buttons>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
It works well when there are many items, but when there are just 2-3, it shows them in the middle.
Also, I tried using LinearLayout but no luck.

you can use RelativeLayouttoo to get your desired results. By using the below code you can show the items on top if they are 2 or 3 left.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frameLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/segmentedButton"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/segmentedButton"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />
</RelativeLayout>

try with linear layout, weight property should push the button to align at the end of parent
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
>
</FrameLayout>
<Buttons
android:id="#+id/segmentedButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dp"
>
</Buttons>
</LinearLayout>
I supposed here that Buttons stand for a custom Button you made

Just add Top Constraint to your FrameLayout, should fix your issue.
Your final layout will be like 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"

<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#+id/segmentedButton"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"></FrameLayout>
<Buttons
android:id="#+id/segmentedButton"
android:layout_width="0dp"
