how can I overlap images half on one another from layout XML file like this image.
Simply you can use RealtiveLayout and negative margins
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/activity_landing"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/screen_background">
<ImageView
android:background="@color/black"
android:id="@+id/img_background"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_below="@+id/img_background"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="-40dp"<!-- negative margin to half of height -->
android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher" />
</RelativeLayout>
This can be achieve easily by RelativeLayout but you need to look about CoordinatorLayout and its features.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="@dimen/_90sdp"
android:layout_height="@dimen/_90sdp">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/bg"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="@dimen/_90sdp"
android:background="@color/profile_bg"
android:scaleType="fitXY" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/img_user"
android:layout_width="@dimen/_80sdp"
android:layout_height="@dimen/_80sdp"
android:layout_below="@+id/bg"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/_minus50sdp"
android:src="@drawable/place_holder_profile"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Use this dependencies compile 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.2' https://github.com/intuit/sdp
You have to set the margin Top with minus(-) values.It will overlap your image view with other
The FrameLayout is more optimised to perform this function. I carries less overhead.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/activity_landing"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/img_background"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="500dp"
android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:background="@color/colorPrimary"/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="160dp"
android:layout_height="160dp"
android:layout_below="@+id/img_background"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|center_horizontal"
android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:background="@color/cardview_dark_background"/>
</FrameLayout>
try this, it look like this
