Android: How do I prevent the soft keyboard from pushing my view up?

Question

I have a vertical sliding drawer at the bottom of my app. When the soft keyboard opens, it pushes the tab for the drawer up, so it sits atop the keyboard. I actually want it

You can try to add this attribute dynamically, by putting the following code in the onCreate method of your activity:

getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN);

This worked for me, but that:

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"

didnt.
