Fragment Size overlaps TabLayout

I found some similar problems but none of them solved my problem. But basically it’s exactly the same as on the other threads, that my viewPager fragment overlaps the tabLayout:

Full view

View by swiping to another tab/fragment

Here is my source code:

GroupBookFragment

public class GroupBookFragment extends Fragment {

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        // inflate the layout for this fragment
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_group_book, container, false);

        // Tab layout initialization
        TabLayout tabLayout = view.findViewById(R.id.tabLayout);
        ViewPager2 viewPager = view.findViewById(R.id.viewPager_groupBook);
        Adapter_groupBook adapterGroupBook = new Adapter_groupBook(getParentFragmentManager(), getLifecycle());
        viewPager.setAdapter(adapterGroupBook);

        // set 3 Tab titles
        tabLayout.addTab(tabLayout.newTab().setText("Krippe"));
        tabLayout.addTab(tabLayout.newTab().setText("Hafen"));
        tabLayout.addTab(tabLayout.newTab().setText("Kindergarten"));

        tabLayout.addOnTabSelectedListener(new TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onTabSelected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {
                viewPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());
            }

            @Override
            public void onTabUnselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onTabReselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {

            }
        });

        viewPager.registerOnPageChangeCallback(new ViewPager2.OnPageChangeCallback() {
            @Override
            public void onPageSelected(int position) {
                tabLayout.selectTab(tabLayout.getTabAt(position));
            }
        });
        return view;
    }
}

adapter_groupBook

public class Adapter_groupBook extends FragmentStateAdapter {
    public Adapter_groupBook(@NonNull FragmentManager fragmentManager, @NonNull Lifecycle lifecycle) {
        super(fragmentManager, lifecycle);
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Fragment createFragment(int position) {
        switch (position) {
            case 0:
                return new fragment_groupBook_krippe();
            case 1:
                return new fragment_groupBook_hafen();
            case 2:
                return new fragment_groupBook_kindergarten();
            default:
                return null;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return 3;
    }
}

The weird thing is, whenever I delete RelativeLayout from the child fragments and used the ConstraintLayout only, the content gets empty. Every change or alternative I tried ended up in an empty child fragment.

PS: same happens for the navBar at the bottom for me, but I think it could have the same reason as the tabLayout/fragment problem – so maybe I could fix by myself after getting a solution/help here.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Answer

enclose the viewpager inside relative layout and set android:layout_centerInParent=”true”

use this xml ->

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".HomeFragment">

    <com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
        android:id="@+id/tabLayout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
        app:tabIndicatorAnimationMode="elastic" />

    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/tabLayout">

        <androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
            android:id="@+id/viewPager_groupBook"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"
            />

    </RelativeLayout>

</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
