title: Multiple Fragments in One Activity
body: <p>The issue of many fragments in one activity has been covered here before, but I cannot seem to find a solution for my positioning problem.</p>
  
  <p>I want a horizontal scroll bar on top of the screen and under it a custom ListFragment. The code I am posting below puts up the scroll bar and then the ListFragment overwrites it.  When I try to modify the hosting FrameLayout to have two FrameLayouts I get runtime errors.  </p>
  
  <p>Simply, How can I position the listFragment under the scrollbar?</p>
  
  <pre><code> public class GoogleNewsMainActivity extends FragmentActivity{
  
  public static Context c;
  
  
  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
      c=this;
  
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_fragment);
  
  
       /* FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
      Fragment fragment = fm.findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentContainer);
  
     if (fragment == null) {
          Scroll_Menu_Fragment scrollFragment = new Scroll_Menu_Fragment();
          fm.beginTransaction()
              .add(R.id.fragmentContainer, scrollFragment)
              .commit();
  
          GoogleNewsMainFragment f = new GoogleNewsMainFragment();
          fm.beginTransaction()
              .add(R.id.fragmentContainer, f)
              .commit();  
  
      }  */
  }
   }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the scroll bar fragment:</p>
  
  <pre><code> public class Scroll_Menu_Fragment extends Fragment {
  
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  }
  
  @Override
  public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
          Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      return inflater.inflate(R.layout.scrollbar_fragment, container, false);
  }
  
  @Override
  public void onPause() {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      super.onPause();
  }
  
   }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is the ListFragment</p>
  
  <pre><code> public class GoogleNewsMainFragment extends ListFragment implements LoaderCallbacks&lt;Cursor&gt; {
  
  private static final String COLUMN_ID = "id";
  public final static String NEWSFROMSERVICE = "NEWSFROMSERVICE";
  
  
  
  static ImageView thumbnail;
  static String mSectionSelected;
  private NewsCursor mCursor;
  private ListView lv;
  
  private NewsCursorAdapter adapter;
  
  
  public static final String ID = "id";
  
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setRetainInstance(true);
  
      setHasOptionsMenu(true);
  
      mSectionSelected = "";  // until they select one
  
  
  
      getLoaderManager().initLoader(0, null, this);
  
  
  
  
  }
  
  @Override
  public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
          Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  
  
  
      View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_google_news_main, container, false);
  
      getActivity().setTitle(R.string.news_list_title);
  
      return v;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And finally the hosting layout</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
   &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
     android:id="@+id/fragmentContainer"

     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="fill_parent"
     android:orientation="vertical" &gt; 
  
    &lt;fragment
      android:id="@+id/scrollFragment"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_weight="10"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
      class="com.gilchrist.android.googlenews.Scroll_Menu_Fragment" &gt;&lt;/fragment&gt;
  
    &lt;fragment
      android:id="@+id/listFragment"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
      android:layout_weight="90"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
      class="com.gilchrist.android.googlenews.GoogleNewsMainFragment" &gt;&lt;/fragment&gt;
    &lt;/LinearLayout&gt;
