The image below is what the PagerTitleStrip looks like when alpha value is set to 0.5:
I expect the title strip to be semi opaque. Instead, as you can see, the title strip is not transparent at all. Even if I set alpha value to 0, the title strip just reduces to same background color of view pager but is still blocking the scrollview below.
I have programmatically moved the scrollview to align with the top, so the title strip is indeed overlay on top of the scrollview. Among the things that I've tried (individually):
titleStrip.setBackground(null) // doesn't work
titleStrip.setAlpha(0) // doesn't work
titleStrip.getBackground.setAlpha(0) // doesn't work
android:alpha="0.0" // set in layout xml of title strip, doesn't work
android:visibility="invisible" // this will give a solid background color
How can I make the pagerTitleStrip to have transparent effect?
