Question

I have added a LinearLayOut having some buttons My screen is RelativeLayOut it self

Here is the code for that linear layout manager

<LinearLayout
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:gravity="bottom"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:id="@+id/Footer"
    android:layout_marginBottom="5dp">

Here is the problem:

There is an EditText component on the top and it pops a soft keyboard on the screen , and brings my Footer manager on top of the keyboard and eventually SHATTERS my whole UI.

What is the exact solution?

P.S. I have removed android:gravity="bottom" and android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" one by one but with hard luck i did not get desired result.

Thanks

Add android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" to manifest – to the corresponding activity:

  <activity android:name="MyActivity"
    ...
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
    ...
  </activity>
