title: Android ViewGroup clipping doesn't work
body: <p>Why is android:clipChildren="false" not working? I want to achieve the same effect as the CSS overflow: visible so that the child views are visible even if they're positioned outside their parent layout. I tried something like this and although the Graphical Layout in Eclipse shows the correct behaviour, on the phone it doesn't work.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
  &lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent"
  android:background="#0000FF"
  android:clipChildren="false"
  android:clipToPadding="false" &gt;
  
  &lt;RelativeLayout
      android:layout_width="100dp"
      android:layout_height="100dp"
      android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
      android:background="#FF0000"
      android:clipChildren="false"
      android:clipToPadding="false" &gt;
  
      &lt;RelativeLayout
          android:layout_width="50dp"
          android:layout_height="50dp"
          android:layout_marginLeft="120dp"
          android:background="#00FF00" /&gt;
  &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
  
  &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
  </code></pre>
