Android SDK - Fragment covering Action Bar & Tabs

Question

I am fairly new to the Android SDK, but I have got stuck in today and managed to produce an app with three tabs.

The only problem is that my Map Fragment is covering the Action Bar and the tabs. I'm sure this is due to something fairly noob-ish but I can't figure it out. Any help would be much appreciated!

MapFragment.java:

public class MapFragment extends Fragment {
    private MapView mMapView;
    private GoogleMap googleMap;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // inflate and return the layout
        View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_location_info, container, false);
        mMapView = (MapView) v.findViewById(R.id.mapView);
        mMapView.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        mMapView.onResume();// needed to get the map to display immediately

        try {
            MapsInitializer.initialize(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        googleMap = mMapView.getMap();
        return v;
    }

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        mMapView.onResume();
    }

    @Override
    public void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        mMapView.onPause();
    }

    @Override
    public void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        mMapView.onDestroy();
    }
}

fragment_location_info.xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

        fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();

        viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
        setupViewPager(viewPager);

        tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
        tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager);
    }

    private void setupViewPager(ViewPager viewPager) {
        ViewPagerAdapter adapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(fragmentManager);
        adapter.addFragment(new UpdatesFragment(), "Updates");
        adapter.addFragment(new MapFragment(), "Map");
        adapter.addFragment(new TimetablesFragment(), "Timetables");
        viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
    }

    @Override

        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_map, menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
        // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
        // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.

        //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
        if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
            return true;
        }

        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }

    class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
        private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();
        private final List<String> mFragmentTitleList = new ArrayList<>();

        public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager) {
            super(manager);

Answer 1

I think the problem is that the ViewPager is occupying the full system window

Try changing layout_height of ViewPager to 0dp and/or enclose everything inside the CoordinatorLayout in a vertical linear layout. And add android:layout_weight="1"

If you are using AndroidStudio the layout preview pane is really helpful for showing the outline boundaries of each element in your layout.
