In my app I have a fragment on top of the activity. The fragment is filling the whole screen. Part of the fragment is a transparent View and you can see the views under (that belong to the activity). Is there a way to transfer the touch events to the views that are under the transparent View of the fragment? Thanks!

In your overriden onTouchEvent method inside the fragment return false, it passes the touch event to the lower layer views.
