Answer 1

Suppose you have a stack of Ten plates. You Put another plate at the botton, number eleven plate, I mean. Do you really think only th eplate number ten willmove, and not the others? Seriously?

Answer 2

You probably have to make a change to your manifest file: I use this one to let the soft keyboard appear and making the rest of the view scrollable:

<activity 
            android:name=".GroupProperties"
            android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize"
            android:label="@string/groepsleden_toevoegen"
            >
        </activity>

Depending on your layout you might also use

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan">
