Design a layout file for bar which contains rating, rate button and metascore. Add corner radius to its background (Top Left and Bottom Left). You can use cardview library. Use this layout in your original fragment. And set elevation. Front layers elevation should be bigger than back layer. Lowest elevation is 0 dp, biggest is 24 dp.

How can I manipulate the grid layout spacing between rows in Android Studio?

I'm a freshman student in college and my professor said I could get out of the midterm if I coded a calculator app using Android Studio. I'm working on the layout right now and want to make it look nice. How can I manipulate the margins between rows so there isn't any?
Here's the link to the image of the layout and what it looks like

the blue screen in android studio disappeared

please help
im new to android studio and from the two screens for layout the blue one on the left disappeared

I'm guessing what you're looking for is the Blueprint Design Surface. Your currently viewing the Basic Design Surface.
You can toggle between Basic, Blueprint and both by either pressing the B key, or by clicking on the Select Design Surface button - it looks like a blue diamond stacked on-top of another blue diamond . (I've circled it in the image you provided)

How to use "pan screen" on Android Studio?

I have found a function recently in Android Studio named "pan screen". It is located at the right side of design window. But I didn't find any description for it.
If you zoom in your design much enough so it no longer fits on in your design area in Android Studio, you can hit pan icon and drag your design around.
The image you have shown in is Zoom and Pan Controls which allows you to zoom in and out of the design , Now the Pan button will help you to pan around to find the areas
that are unable or not visible to see when zoomed in.
Pan is swing in a horizontal or vertical plane, typically to give a panoramic effect or follow a subject.
Pan in Android studio, you can hold space bar and drag the screen to view those area currently is not visible.
When a user zooms in the layout so much that you are unable to see all items in the layout, you can click on the pan option and then afterwards move the layout without accidently moving the items in the layout.

Android wallpaper also sliding left and right when we swipe the home screen

I want to develop a new home screen application for android. I saw the default home screen in my android 2.3.3 device, when ever I swipe the home screen left and right, the background wallpaper also sliding left and right. What is that view? How to get the same effect in an app?
Is it ViewPager? I checked the ViewPager class, but I didn't found any common background image for all views in that.
You probably want to use a canvas with a draw-able, then detect the users swiping and animate it in the background. It is likely that the default android backgrounds are doing the same. You wont be drawing the unseen portions of the view.

I suggest doing their lunar lander tutorial to learn how to use the canvas first.
You will make a canvas the background to your app and then lay your other ui elements on top of it unless you make the ui based inside the canvas.

Swiping side to side to switch layouts?

How can I have a layout were when you swipe your finger to the left it goes to another layout or activity?
-EXAMPLE-
{layout 1} {layout 2 (default)}
User SWIPES left
<---
[moves to Layout 1]
Though I think your example is counter-intuitive (I would expect that the User should swipe right to move to layout 1, unless it's cycling through the layouts), there's a few libraries which provide this functionality, most of which based on the Android Homescreen, which uses the idea of workspaces.
