How to put RelativeLayout inside CoordinatorLayout

Question

I\'m trying to recreate the search box as it is in Airbnb Android app. So I\'m using CoorinatorLayout with Toolbar and RecyclerView

Answer 1

I was trying to do something a little similar, but with an ad banner at the bottom of the screen. My solution was to wrap the RelativeLayout outside the CoordinatorLayout as so:

<?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:id="@+id/main_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

  <android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      android:layout_above="@+id/ad_view">

    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">

      <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
          android:id="@+id/toolbar"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
          android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
          app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
          app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />

    </android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/my_list_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />

  </android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

  <com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
      android:id="@+id/ad_view"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
      android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
      android:layout_gravity="center|bottom"
      app:adSize="SMART_BANNER"
      app:adUnitId="@string/admob_id" />

</RelativeLayout>

The toolbar properly hides when scrolling inside the RecyclerView and everything seems to be working just fine. I would imagine if you followed a similar principle you should be good-to-go.

If you want remove status bar white colour, you must remove the next line

<item name="android:statusBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>`

in v21/styles.xml

Thanks for example.

            <EditText
                android:id="@+id/search"
                android:layout_width="0dp"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                android:layout_weight="6"
                android:background="@null"
                android:fontFamily="sans-serif-light"
                android:hint="Unesite grad"
                android:paddingLeft="16dp"
                android:paddingStart="16dp"/>

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/cancelSearch"
                android:layout_width="0dp"
                android:layout_height="40dp"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:padding="10dp"
                android:src="@drawable/ic_cancel" />
        </LinearLayout>
    </android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recyclerView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_below="@id/appbar"
        android:background="#ffffff"
        app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Check if this works for you.
