The problem is that I want to overlay anther layout with top of select list view item with match the parent height and width, and background color transparent. How to do it ?

Answer 1

Your root layout must be FrameLayout.

<FrameLayout>

   <RelativeLayout>
       <!-- This is your existing relative layout -->
   <RelativeLayout>



   <AnyLayoutHere>

       <!-- This will be your overlay that you can hide or show -->
   </AnyLayoutHere>



</FrameLayout>
