        </LinearLayout>
    </LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

java code used to show snake bar

 private CoordinatorLayout _CoordinatorLayout;

@Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.compition, null);

        _CoordinatorLayout = (CoordinatorLayout) v.findViewById(R.id.fullview);

}

Snackbar.make(_CoordinatorLayout , message , Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG).show();

here is screen shot

what I miss ??

Answer 1

The documentation here says:

Snackbars appear above all other elements on screen and only one can be displayed at a time.

So, Snackbar will cover your view, just like a Toast.
