I have a linear layout with a horizontal orientation. In the horizontal orientation I have 3 widgets ImageButton, Edittext and Fabbutton.
How can I align Imagebutton to the left and its padding to left,right,top and bottom should be same?

All that I have done is to put the id that you will call later as your bottom sheet in the root element (Which by the way could be a ConstraintLayout if you want), as you can notice, the parent of this root element will be automatically a CoodinatorLayout.
The second thing is to put this element with a height wrap_content
The layout behaviour should be in the root element, too. app:layout_behavior="#string/bottom_sheet_behavior"
I have an empty Activity with RelativeLayout and RecyclerView
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</RelativeLayout>
I need an EditText and a button to be added before RecyclerView.
I guess RecyclerView's padding height should be changed but not sure! Please help me
Try this out. Make your parent layout as Linear layout, your views will get stacked.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="5dp">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:text="Name"
android:layout_toStartOf="#+id/button" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
Change the LinearLayout to "Vertical" orientation
Use android:layout_weight Property.
Indicates how much of the extra space in the LinearLayout is allocated
to the view associated with these LayoutParams.
Example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/et_ONE"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_ONE"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:text="Button"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="3"/>
</LinearLayout>
You can try with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavilayout_widthor="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
tools:showIn="#layout/activity_main"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/et_ONE"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_ONE"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:text="Button"
android:layout_weight="1"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="3"/>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
is this you want?
<?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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
Try this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="EditText"/>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
Use a LinearLayout before RecyclerView and and provide them an ID(e.g. temp) and use RelativeLayout property layout_below with the RecyclerView, like this android:layout_below="#id/temp"(it will make sure that your RecyclerView will always below then LinearLayout), Now Add your Button and EditText into that LinearLayout (Make sure that LinearLayout should be wrap_content into height)
Use this code, Edit according to your requirement
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout 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:="match_parent"
app:layout_behavilayout_widthor="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
tools:showIn="#layout/activity_main"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/temp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:text="Name" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button" />
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/temp" />
</RelativeLayout>
Hope it help!!
I want to display an image on top of linearlayout
I have tried wrapping it in Framelayout and Relative layout but it doesn't seem to work.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:src="#drawable/cricle" />
</RelativeLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="20dp"
android:background="#color/blue"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:gravity="center"/>
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
You can use ConstraintLayout for this. You'll have to add a constraint to the LinearLayout for its top, depending on what else you have in there.
<?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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linear_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:background="#ffffff80"
android:orientation="vertical"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView2"
android:layout_width="128dp"
android:layout_height="128dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:src="#drawable/your_drawable"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#id/linear_layout"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="#id/linear_layout" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
make your relative layout width match_parent and set margin top for linear layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
android:background="#color/blue"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="20dp">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:src="#drawable/cricle"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Try to use match_parent and layout_marginTop
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#aaaaaa"
android:orientation="vertical"

android:layout_marginTop="70dp" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:gravity="center"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<ImageView

Why the linear layout does not fill the whole screen?
As you can see I am using match parent in the linear layout.
If I delete the Scrollbar nothing changes. The button is not at the bottom of the screen.

F A is the fragment part.
Give android:fillViewport="true" to your ScrollView.
Your xml will looks like below. Main_Activity.xml

The problem is if I run this on my phone, the shadow doesn't appear but in Preview mode in Android Studio the shadow shows correctly. How to fix it ?
In the relative layout which is a parent for linear layout that you want elevation set these two attributes: android:clipToPadding="false" and android:paddingbottom="5dp". Do not make any changes in linear layout.
