title: Hiding footer in ListView
body: <p>When my Activity loads, I inflate a layout file that I use for a footer.  I attach it to the ListView (addFooterView) and then set its visibility to View.GONE.  I maintain a reference to it, and when I want the user to see it, I set the visibility to View.VISIBLE.</p>
  
  <p>For the most part, this works great.  However, the footer seems to still take up space.  If the user uses the scroll wheel/pad, the area the footer is taking up gets highlighted.  I'd like to polish this more so the footer is completely gone; ideally without detaching it from the ListView.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible? Or am I going to have to set/unset the foot instead of simply toggling its visibility?</p>
