Can't resize a RelativeLayout inside a ScrollView to fill the whole screen

Question

I am having a weird issue that I am not sure how to fix. I have a RelativeLayout inside a ScrollView and this scrollView has it's height set to fill_parent. So does the RelativeLayout. Still, the contents are not filling the entire screen and it's going only to the wrap_content of the last layout inside this RelativeLayout.

Here is my code:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.pontai"     android:id="@+id/relativeLayout1"

<RelativeLayout             android:id="@+id/relativeLayout2"             android:layout_width="match_parent"             android:layout_height="match_parent" >              <LinearLayout

Anyone have ideas of how I can make the RelativeLayout2 to have the same height as the ScrollView, meaning, I want it to reach the bottom of the screen?

Thanks and regards, Felipe

I have faced this problem before. Just Use android:fillViewport="true" in your scrollview and it will fill up the screen.

 <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"         android:id="@+id/scrollView1"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="fill_parent"          android:fillViewport="true" >
