Android: Change the z-order of the view

Question

I have many views in my xml, and now I wanna change one view's z order in code in order to bring it to other views' front but not all the other views' front.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Answer 1

The only thing that comes to mind is .bringToFront() but you would have to do it for more than one view in your case.

Answer 2

This can help

layout.bringChildToFront(view);

here

layout = your_linear_layout AND 
view = the_view_you_wanna_bring_to_front

hope it will help you.
