I want to add a FloatingActionButton in the middle of BottomAppBar with curve below. So i Added tried to design the MainActivity like below. I maintained Single Activity Architecture in this app. Now, I have faced two problems.
- If I want to set Visibility:gone for bottomappbar & floatingActionButtonin any particular fragment than both are gone but created an empty view. Like the screen shot. How can I remove that empty view?
- I want to make transparent the gap between FloatingActionButton & BottomAppBar. But failed to do that.
This is the code below of my MainActivity's XML.
