FrameLayout after ScrollView allways on bottom

I need to made layout that will contain ScrollView with some dynamic length text and Button in FrameLayout after(below). With long text all is okay, but when text is short button stuck right below bottom of ScrollView text part. I want a FrameLayout in the bottom of the screen when text is short and right below ScrollView text part when text long .
Can it be done?

You can use the android:fillViewport attribute of ScrollView to accomplish this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"/>
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
What this does is make it so that, in the case where the contents of the LinearLayout are not large enough to fill the screen, the LinearLayout is stretched to fill the screen anyway. That gives the FrameLayout room to grow (based on its layout_weight attribute), which in turn lets the Button float to the bottom of the screen (because of its layout_gravity attribute).
In cases where the contents of the LinearLayout are larger than the screen, no stretching happens. The button is pushed off-screen, but appears when you scroll down (with no space between it and the text).

You can try this code for your approach:
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Explaination:
What i did was took FrameLayout containing Button out side of ScrollView so that it can always be at bottom of the Container.

The Background of the recyclerview is a simple image, that is supposed to show through the linear layouts. But unfortunately, this is the result:
So, as you can see, the background is displayed just right but the supposed to be transparent layout for the cardview i am using here is some wired black.
I can make it whatever color I want, but with:
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
it just gets black.
Can anyone help me here?
Thanks you! :)

You can use
app:cardBackgroundColor="#android:color/transparent"

You have to change your CardView background color. you can use
app:cardBackgroundColor="#android:color/transparent"
Instead of
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
Like :
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
app:cardBackgroundColor="#android:color/transparent">
<!-- Your view design -->
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

... turns out CARDVIEWS do not have such attribute. Making the rootlayout a linearlayout solved this issue.

Linear Layout with Weights and Scroll View

I'm trying to create a responsive layout using weights but I also need to use a scroll view in this case.
This is my code at this moment:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".EncyclopediaFragment">
<!--Linear Container-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="100">
<!--Title Box-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="20"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="100">
<!--Empty Space-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="5">
</LinearLayout>
<!--Text Box-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="95">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:text="#string/encyclopedia_mosntersLabel"
android:gravity="center"
android:textAlignment="viewStart"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="40">
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
but it needs to be like this.
That layout is suppose to be responsive with weights but at the same time I need to make it possible to scroll.
So my question is: how can I create a layout responsive with weights and at the same time a layout that can scroll down, just like in the picture?

If you have a determined number of 6 Monsters and 8 Towers, here is how you should organize your layout:
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Monsters"/>
<!-- the following LinearLayout should be repeated twice for 6 Monsters -->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<MonsterView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<MonsterView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<MonsterView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
...
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Towers"/>
<!-- the following LinearLayout should be repeated twice for 6 Towers -->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TowerView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TowerView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TowerView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
...
<!-- attention here for two Towers in the last row -->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="3">
<TowerView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TowerView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>

The content inside your ScrollView should use wrap_parent, and if you want to stretch the content inside it set android:fillViewport="true". Try this:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".EncyclopediaFragment">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<!--Linear Container-->
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".EncyclopediaFragment">
<!--Toolbar-->
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!--Linear Container With Weights-->
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

LinearLayout position is shifting to up , When video is playing in Videoview

When the application is launched layout is fine. But when the video is playing. the Layout of the button is moving up.
How to resolve this?
When the application is launched?

Below I had placed the layoutfile.xml which i had been working on.

You should make the LinearLayout(that contains FrameLayout and Button) height match_parent

No need for weight-sum, just make the layout_weights integers like 1 and 9 instead of 0.1 and 0.9
Also, fill_parent is deprecated, use match_parent instead.
You have a LinearLayout with single child. No need, just put ListView with same layout_params.
Lastly, your vertical LinearLayout on the right should have a height of match_parent.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:baselineAligned="false"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/VideoList"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:background="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:foreground="#android:color/background_light" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_weight="7">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="9"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical">
<VideoView

android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/videoView"
android:layout_gravity="center" />
</FrameLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="New Button"
android:id="#+id/button"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Edit: Fixed layout Params on LinearLayout.

I have done changes in listview "layout_width" and "layout_height" both should be match_parent ,Now it is working

Remove Strange Space between RecyclerView Items
