I have used wrap content, but the card view is still cutting my TextInputLayouts How do I make them visible and wrap content the card view at the same time? Thanks!

it's not related to recycler view, if you copy this content and put it in a layout file, then the layout preview is not showing the content properly wrapped either...plz guide — penduDev, Nov 30 '15 at 13:47

Change layout_height of LinearLayout at:

.....
        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:orientation="vertical">

            <ImageButton
                android:id="@+id/btn_edit_overflow"
                android:layout_width="40dp"
                android:layout_height="40dp"
                android:layout_gravity="right"
                android:background="@drawable/ripple"
                android:padding="8dp"
                android:scaleType="fitCenter"
                android:src="@drawable/ic_more_vert_grey600_24dp" />
