Android: How do I prevent the soft keyboard from pushing my view up?

Question

I have a vertical sliding drawer at the bottom of my app. When the soft keyboard opens, it pushes the tab for the drawer up, so it sits atop the keyboard. I actually want it

Answer 1

I was struggling for a while with this problem. Some of the solutions worked however some of my views where still being pushed up while others weren't... So it didn't completely solve my problem. In the end, what did the job was adding the following line of code to my manifest in the activity tag...

android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan|adjustResize"

Good luck
