I need to implement the layout as in the picture. Parent and Sibling are in a vertical LinearLayout. So I need to make a child view to overlap it's parent. Can I do that in android?
RelativeLayout is a view group that displays child views in relative positions. The position of each view can be specified as relative to sibling elements (such as to the left-of or below another view) or in positions relative to the parent RelativeLayout area (such as aligned to the bottom, left or center).
Android RelativeLayout enables you to specify how child views are positioned relative to each other. The position of each view can be specified as relative to sibling elements or relative to the parent.
Z-Index for Annotation Stacking Order on Android The annotation z-index defines the stacking order of annotations on a page.
You can create linear layouts now with ConstraintLayout by constraining the sides of each element with each other. The quick way of creating these layouts is to select all the views together and right click to center horizontally or vertically.
If:
ViewGroup
then maybe you could consider using android:clipChildren set to false on parent.
