[android] Add views below toolbar in CoordinatorLayout

I have the following layout:

<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
    android:id="@+id/main_content"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

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

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

I add Fragments into the FrameLayout, replacing them. One of my Fragments is a list, which has the following layout:

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/recyclerView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"/>

My problem here that the toolbar is drawn over the list. I tried to solve that by wrapping the content of the CoordinatorLayout into a LinearLayout, that solved the overdraw, but that way the appbar scrolling behavior no longer work.

Any help is much appreciated!

The answer is


As of Android studio 3.4, You need to put this line in your Layout which holds the RecyclerView.

app:layout_behavior="android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout$ScrollingViewBehavior"

I managed to fix this by adding:

android:layout_marginTop="?android:attr/actionBarSize"

to the FrameLayout like so:

 <FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/content"
        android:layout_marginTop="?android:attr/actionBarSize"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
       />

To use collapsing top ToolBar or using ScrollFlags of your own choice we can do this way:From Material Design get rid of FrameLayout
