Disable focus on fragment

Question

I'm working on application for TV platform and use RCU for navigation.

I have use case where I have two fragments one above each other and visible on the screen at the same time.

Is there a way to disable focusing fragment that is below? setFocusable(false) on fragments view doesnt work, and I'm able to focus elements in fragment below.

Thanks in advance.

The solution that I've come up with in the end is:

Added custom Lifecycle listeners for the fragment namely: onFragmentResume and onFragmentPause events which I call manually when I need to show/hide or switch between fragments.

@Override
public void onFragmentResume() {

    //Enable focus
    if (getView() != null) {

        //Enable focus
        setEnableView((ViewGroup) view, true);

        //Clear focusable elements
        focusableViews.clear();
    }

    //Restore previous focus
    if (previousFocus != null) {
        previousFocus.requestFocus();
    }
}

@Override
public void onFragmentPause() {

    //Disable focus and store previously focused
    if (getView() != null) {

        //Store last focused element
        previousFocus = getView().findFocus();

        //Clear current focus
        getView().clearFocus();

        //Disable focus
        setEnableView((ViewGroup) view, false);
    }
}

/**
 * Find focusable elements in view hierarchy
 *
 * @param viewGroup view
 */
private void findFocusableViews(ViewGroup viewGroup) {

    int childCount = viewGroup.getChildCount();
    for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
        View view = viewGroup.getChildAt(i);
        if (view.isFocusable()) {
            if (!focusableViews.contains(view)) {
                focusableViews.add(view);
            }
        }
        if (view instanceof ViewGroup) {
            findFocusableViews((ViewGroup) view);
        }
    }
}

/**
 * Enable view
 *
 * @param viewGroup
 * @param isEnabled
 */
private void setEnableView(ViewGroup viewGroup, boolean isEnabled) {

    //Find focusable elements
    findFocusableViews(viewGroup);

    for (View view : focusableViews) {
        view.setEnabled(isEnabled);
        view.setFocusable(isEnabled);
    }
}
