My goal is to show a toolbar at the top of the view, then a TextView, then a ScrollView section and then a footer that always shows at the bottom of the view. The below only shows the toolbar and the TextView header. Nothing is showing for the ScrollView section or for the footer at the bottom. What am I missing here?

EditActivity.xml



<RelativeLayout

    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    android:background="#FFFFFF"

    android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

    tools:context=".EditActivity">



    <include

        android:id="@+id/toolbar"

    <TextView

    </ViewFlipper>



</RelativeLayout>

</LinearLayout>



</ScrollView>

First of all, you should limit height of footer view. I set the ViewFlipper's height to 128dp for test, so you can calculate your own based on its content.

Second: You should set android:layout_alignParentTop="true" for the include which its id is toolbar. To do this you should set height and weight for it as I did.

Third: The height of the ScrollView should be wrap_content instead of match_parent to be sure it stretches between header and footer views.

Here is your layout source code after applying the above corrections:
