Layout:

Answer 1

If your are facing the same issue for RecycleView inside a fragment, try to use this code.

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // Inflate the layout for this fragment
    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_latest, container, false);

    // get recycler view
    mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.novel_item_list);

    //mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);

    // use a linear layout manager
    mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());
    mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);


    String[] abc = {"hi","how are you","this is recycler"};
    // specify an adapter (see also next example)
    mAdapter = new RecyclerViewAdapter(abc);
    mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
    return rootView;
}
