<activity android:name="XYZActivity"
          android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"/>

Working in single line text

But it's not working in multiline text

Expected output

CodePudding user response：

You should change the bottom constraint of your recyclerview to

app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@ id/inputContainer"

The position of the guideline won't change when the inputContainer changes size. It will stay at 90%.
