You can add a view with black overlay. Use of RelativeLayout is a great solution.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
 xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 android:layout_height="match_parent"
 android:background="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
   <Button
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Press Me"/>
   <View
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#8000"/>
</RelativeLayout>

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
