Pin tablayout in Scrollview with appbarlayout

My android app want to have a page like Facebook page which pin the tablayout on top of the screen when scroll below the tablayout.
I have found a few answers on this topic.
pin TabLayout to top and below the toolbar Scrollview
How to make tablayout fixed below action bar?
However, they don't want my app situation because I want to keep my cardview and tablayout in the scrollview. My xml template is as below. Any insight or solution can share?

I believe you are using unnecessary layouts, try following code for guidance -
MainLayout File
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout
android:id="#+id/collapsing_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:contentScrim="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed|snap">
<!-- you can put any content you want to hide after scroll in header-->
<!-- as example in putting this image view-->
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:padding="20dp"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:src="#drawable/default_img"
app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"
app:layout_collapseParallaxMultiplier="0.25" />
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
android:layout_gravity="bottom" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout>
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
<!-- put content of scroll view here -->
<include layout="scroll_content_layout" />
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Above layout file will result in following result-
File scroll_content_layout.xml will have content you want as part of your scroll view.
ScrollContentFile
<?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="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
<!-- some other layout as part of scroll view -->
</LinearLayout>
Edit
Content inside CollapsingToolbarLayout will collaps on scroll. Any View you want to KEEP on TOP on a scroll or any other customization you need to use layout_collapseMode flag.
CollapseMode Parallax: The content will scroll but a bit
slower than nested scroll view. You can control scroll speed with
layout_collapseParallaxMultiplier flag.
CollapseMode Pin: The content will stay in the same place while this place is still inside the collapsing toolbar.
Please check Collapse modes of CollapsingToolbarLayout
Happy coding -

Android recyclerview not scrolling on lower end devices with sticky header - why?

i have this issue where my recyclerview does not do nestedscrolling on api 19 (lollipop) ...on latest version of android its ok.
using following dependency: com.android.support:design:26.1.0
and what i have created is a recyclerview that should have a sticky header. the header is in a cardview and the list items are below the cardview. it looks like this:

when i inflate this thing its placed inside a CoordinatorLayout customView. that container itself can be scrolled. What am i doing wrong that it works on recent versions of android but not lollipop ? i even tried using a appBarLayout and putting my headerView in that but same thing just on older version of android, not working. im open to changing the xml entirely if you can suggest a better approach ?
note: setting android:nestedScrollingEnabled = false is going to cause my recyclerView not to recyclerviews. i have big images in the list so i need this feature.

You'd have to set android:layout_height to match_parent or a fixed size.
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
If you set it to wrap_content it'll expand to the size of its content and thus not scroll.

so odd this is the only way i could get it resolved:

so strange this works for everything ..thanks everyone. they key thing is i need to put the recyclerView FIRST above everything else. then define the appbar stuff afterwards.

Coordinator layout - collapsing content interaction with recycler view

schema
As shown in the picture, I want my 2 views ( recycler view and collapsing content ) to be responding only to the middle grip bar ( it could be 50dp height constraint layout - for example )
Moving this bar should collapse the upper part - and make recyclerview change its height. The bar shouldn't be able to move lower than the upper part content. Recycler view should be able to scroll independently all the time.
How to make only restricted area respond to touch events?
How to make recyclerview height depend on grip position ?
Now in my case, the collapsing part is getting hidden just after i start scrolling recyclerview.
If there is not enough information, I'll add whatever required.

in my case like this :

Same question answer: Link

With the newest version of Android Studio (4.0 Canary 9), you can use the new MotionLayout layout type to transition between different ConstraintLayouts. The simplest solution (below) wouldn't necessarily let you change the RecyclerView height to whatever you wanted, but you could smoothly transition between two different layouts when the user swipes up or down.
In short, you would do the following:
In your build.gradle (Module: app) file, add the following line:
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.0.0-beta4'
Create a new ConstraintLayout layout file that determines how all of your views should be arranged at the beginning
Convert that ConstraintLayout to a MotionLayout using the right-click menu in the layout editor
In the MotionLayout editor, add constraints to each view in the "start" and "end" layouts
In the new MotionScene XML file that was added to the XML folder in your res folder, edit the tag to look like this:
<Transition
motion:constraintSetEnd="#+id/end"
motion:constraintSetStart="#id/start"
>
<OnSwipe
app:touchAnchorSide="top"
motion:touchAnchorId="#id/YOUR_GRIP_VIEW"
motion:dragDirection="dragUp" />
<KeyFrameSet>
</KeyFrameSet>
</Transition>
* In the MotionLayout Codelab, it says to use app:touchAnchorID instead of motion:touchAnchorId but that didn't work for me *
Now, when you swipe your grip view up or down, the MotionLayout can transition between states.

Image as Toolbar background that hangs outside of its bounds

I've tried using various layouts but that little bit that hangs outside the boundary of the rectangular toolbar doesn't work (the semi circle).
I want something like this:
How would I go about implementing this? I've something that visually looks like this but it is just an ImageView inside a relative layout. I want a proper Toolbar.

Well I do now know if you want this, but I've done this example for you, hope it helps.
This is the activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout 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:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
<android.support.constraint.Guideline
android:id="#+id/guidelineImageStart"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
app:layout_constraintGuide_percent=".33" />
<android.support.constraint.Guideline
android:id="#+id/guidelineImageEnd"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
app:layout_constraintGuide_percent=".66" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:src="#drawable/overlape_image"
app:layout_constraintDimensionRatio="W,1:1"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="#id/guidelineImageStart"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="#id/guidelineImageEnd"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<include layout="#layout/content_main" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Now you can play and adjust size of views.

Overlay on top of toolbar and fab

I want to achieve the following:
Overlay the whole activity with a LinearLayout that is currently not visible and revealed with a CircularReveal animation. It should then look like this. (Also, the Fab should be hidden beneath the semi transparent background of the overlay.)
The screenshot was taken from Android Studio's preview.
But instead it looks like this when testing on my phone.
The toolbar and the fab are above the overlay. I attached my layout below.
I know, I could also solve this with a new activity that is drawn over the previous one with a transparent theme but I would prefer this method as it is easier to work with in the future.

</FrameLayout>
horizontal list view with all the circular buttons
...
</LinearLayout>
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/background_transparent"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

I solved it by using PopupWindow (reference here)
