item_recycler_view:

                <ImageView

Solution

  • I somehow fix my problem by just adding a bit of same color as rating bar background on bottom of first item.

    now here is the final xml look alike:

    item_recycler_view:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    
    <FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        xmlns:tool="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    
        <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/llOverlapView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="50dp"
            android:layout_gravity="bottom"
            android:background="@color/rating_bar"
            android:orientation="vertical"/>
    
            <androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/margin_24dp"
                android:layout_marginEnd="@dimen/margin_24dp"
                android:fillViewport="true">
    
                <LinearLayout
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="match_parent"
                    android:background="@drawable/btn_shap_without_solid_green"
                    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
                    android:orientation="vertical">
    
    
                    <ImageView
                        android:id="@+id/ivProductImage"
                        android:layout_width="100dp"
                        android:layout_height="100dp"
                        android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/margin_medium"
                        android:scaleType="fitXY"
                        app:srcCompat="@drawable/ic_original_placeholder" />
    
                    <TextView
                        android:id="@+id/tvName"
                        style="@style/TextStyleNormal.XXLarge.black"
                        android:textStyle="bold"
                        tool:text="Steelbird Air" />
    
                    <TextView
                        android:id="@+id/tvModel"
                        style="@style/TextStyleNormal.XXLarge"
                        tool:text="SBA-2 Horn Matt Black With Red " />
    
                    <TextView
                        android:id="@+id/tvId"
                        style="@style/TextStyleNormal.XXLarge.gray"
                        android:text="@string/product_id" />
    
                    <TextView
                        android:id="@+id/tvViewProductDetails"
                        style="@style/TextStyleNormal.XLarge.primary"
                        android:text="View product Details" />
    
                    <androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
                        android:id="@+id/rvWarrantyCard"
                        android:layout_width="match_parent"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/margin_medium"
                        android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/margin_medium">
    
                    </androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView>
                </LinearLayout>
            </androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
    </FrameLayout>
