ListView hides the EditText
<p>I am new to Android and am reading Wrox's professional android 4 app dev book. In chapter 4 of the book it explains how to modify the existing text view. The problem i am facing is that the listview in my app hides the edit text box. Its hidden (can be seen in the background) but still works that is more stuff can be added to the list through it. Below is the code for my main activity xml</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" &gt;
&lt;EditText
    android:id="@+id/myEditText"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:contentDescription="@string/addItemContentDescription"
    android:hint="@string/addItemHint"
    /&gt;
&lt;ListView
    android:id="@+id/myListView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/&gt;
&lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>and my todolist_item xml</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;com.example.wroxexample.ToDoListItemView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
android:padding="10dp"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:textColor="@color/notepad_text"
android:fadingEdge="vertical"
/&gt;
</code></pre>
