Gallery View to move beyond the background of parent

Question

I am working with gallery. My layout for the same is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/mySelection"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="#ff0000ff"
    android:textSize="20px"
    android:textStyle="bold" />

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_margin="10dp"
    android:background="#fff785" >

    <Gallery
        android:id="@+id/myGallery"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"

        android:spacing="10dp" />

Answer 1

I found the answer for the question which I asked above . I made parent layout as Relative and in that I added Linear Layout with background of what I want. With this i placed Gallery above Linear Layout. And I am able to get what I want to acheive.

layout file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
 >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/mySelection"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="#ff0000ff"
    android:textSize="20sp"
    android:textStyle="bold" />

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:layout_margin="10dp"
    android:background="#fff785"
    android:layout_below="@+id/mySelection" >


</LinearLayout>

<Gallery
        android:id="@+id/myGallery"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:overScrollMode="always"
        android:spacing="10dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
