How to hide the Umano SlidingupPanel when clicking outside the panel

AndroidSlidingUpPanel

Here, I am using slidingup panel library. You can see both the panel and listview in the following screen. What i am trying to do is to hide the panel if i click outside the panel(Dim Area). Instead it is clicking on the listview in the above layout. How can i achieve this?

Here is the XML,

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.voucher.point.activity"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="fill_parent"
   android:orientation="vertical" >

<!-- sothree:dragView="@+id/dragView" -->

<com.sothree.slidinguppanel.SlidingUpPanelLayout
    xmlns:sothree="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/sliding_layout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:gravity="bottom"
    app:fadeColor="@color/transparent"
    sothree:panelHeight="40dip"
    sothree:paralaxOffset="200dp" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <ListView
            android:id="@+id/offersList"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
            android:scrollbars="none"
            android:visibility="gone" >
        </ListView>

    </LinearLayout>

    <include
        android:id="@+id/bottom_menu"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="270dip"
        layout="@layout/side_menu" />
</com.sothree.slidinguppanel.SlidingUpPanelLayout>

Can i do like this?

With the version 3.3.0 and later, it's possible to do that in the following way

final SlidingUpPanelLayout slidingUpPanelLayout = (SlidingUpPanelLayout) findViewById(R.id.sliding_layout);
slidingUpPanelLayout.setFadeOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        slidingUpPanelLayout.setPanelState(SlidingUpPanelLayout.PanelState.COLLAPSED);
    }
});
