You can try this :-

    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/main_container"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">


        <!-   Your view --> 


    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
        android:id="@+id/appbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:elevation="6dp"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">


      <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
         xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

         android:id="@+id/toolbar"
         android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
         android:elevation="6dp"
         app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
         app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
         app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme">

           <LinearLayout
