I have a very basic yet difficult issue where I have a button fixed at the bottom of the view, but below recyclerview container. Once the container size grows, I want the button to go below the recyclerview (scrollable) instead of being fixed at the bottom of the view.Is there a way to achieve this?
I have looked online for a couple of ideas but didn't find anything quite like it yet.
i am basically using

The problem above is, the submit_list btn doesnt stay fixed, if the recyclerview grows but theres still enough space to spare in the view.
I want to make it such that the button stays fixed and doesnt scroll UNTIL the size of the recyclerview goes beyond a certain limit from the bottom(not visible on the screen anymore), after which the button scrolls relative to the last item of the recyclerview and not aligned to the bottom anymore. any ideas how to go about it?
As you can see, initial screen has submit button aligned to the bottom and the rest of the content in place. As I add more users: 
It still stays at the bottom since the recyclerview items are still within screen now, aqs soon as i add one more item, causing the list to scroll up : 
As seen I want it to go below the recyclerview instead of stay fixed at bottom of the screen (the above screenshots are from ios where it works), was wondering if we can do the same for android?
from How do I make my button which is fixed at the bottom of a layout scroll, once the recyclerview on top grows in size
