My Fragment layout is overlapping Activity layout

I have an Activity with two buttons. Button click opens a new Fragment. But the Fragment view is overlapping my Activity view.
I have tried giving background to my fragment but it is not working for me
Here is activity xml code

I hope you are using a ConstraintLayout. To make the elements align one after another, use a LinearLayout or FrameLayout.

Using RelativeLayout here is wrong option. You should use LinearLayout instead. Place your FrameLayout as first view in your activity layout and change its visibility from gone to visible when needed.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#E6E6E6"
android:orientation="vertical">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/admin_fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:visibility="gone"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tour_admin_tour_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="60dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:text="Tournament Name"
android:textSize="30dp" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/tour_admin_schedule"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:text="Schedule Match"
android:textColor="#fff" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/tour_admin_show_for_score"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/tour_admin_schedule"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:text="Score Match"
android:textColor="#fff" />
</LinearLayout>
Another option is using ConstraintLayout but it is harder to use than LinearLayout.

Background ImageView is not Shown in API level 16 though working good in API 19

I am not able to find out the exact issue that why the image(background) is not visible in API level 16 but it is showing good in API level 19. I have worked simply as i have done previously but , this time the background is not shown(of WaterMark in ImageView).
I am not able to find out what is exact issue . So i need help.I have done every thing as suggested in the stack Android device is not showing the background image but it is not going good in my case.

The Image background of watermark is not shown. I have done nothing
new ,same as previous but dont' know that is the exact issue.

Please reduce image size to visible in the lower level device.

I Just Removed marginTop and it worked fine in API level 16
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="35dp"
android:src="#drawable/logowatermark" />
I don't understand that why it worked when i remove the -ve marginTop
in above? .I got solution but don't understand what exactly happened
in adding -ve marginTop and with removing -ve marginTop.

ScrollView.FOCUS_UP not working in my project with root layout as scrollView

I know it is silly question but i used many solution which already given by stack Overflow but no one solve my problem, my question is, I want to Scroll Up the layout after clicking on last edittext because keyboard hide the EditText and i am unable to see what is typing..
Code I am using in onCreate method
scrollView=(ScrollView)findViewById(R.id.activityRoot);
addressEdt=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.profilAddress);
addressEdt.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
scrollView.fullScroll(ScrollView.FOCUS_UP);
}
});

Android: Removing the spacing above and below CardViews in a RecyclerView

I am using a RecyclerView with CardViews inside and I want to remove the Margins/Padding/Spacing left in between the children cards inside the RecyclerView. How can I do that?
Here is my CardView:
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/card_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
card_view:cardUseCompatPadding="false">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<!--status lock-->
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageField"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_margin="20dp" />
<!--text info section-->
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/textInfo"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

<TextView
android:id="#+id/message"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:layout_marginStart="48dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_star_gray" />
</LinearLayout>

And my RecyclerView:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/my_recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/my_store"
android:scrollbars="vertical" />
Here is a screenshot:

This might be what you were looking for CardView inside RecyclerView has extra margins
Plus if you are not looking to keep spaces you should simply use a LinearLayout for your adapter layout removing the CardView altogether, that should do it.
Hope that helps.

Check if it is margin or padding (Dev Options / show layout bounds)
CardView adds padding in pre-L API levels to show shadows. In L, unless you set useCompatPadding=true, there should not be any gap.
Adding negative margins (although it is ugly) should work.
This might work
card_view:contentPaddingLeft="-3dp"
card_view:contentPaddingRight="-3dp"
card_view:contentPaddingTop="-3dp"
card_view:contentPaddingBottom="-3dp"

Try this:
<LinearLayout

you must know that ,your scrollview property is set as MatchParent ,which means it will fill the content view, so i suggest to set Height a real value such as 100dp, and it will work

You need to dynamically change the height of the recyclerview, depending on how many items you have.
int recyclerheight = height_per_item * adapterData.size();
recyclerView.getLayoutParams().height = recyclerheight;
The scroll view blocks the recyclerview from changing its height set in the xml, that's why you need to do it programically.
