Increase the layout height and make it scrollable in Android Studio
If you look at the attached image, I have filled the screen with objects. However, I want to add more object but I need to scroll down so that I can add 3 more objects. How can I solved this problem? How can I increase the height of the layout and make the layout scrollable in design view in Android Studio so that I can add more objects from the palette setting?

Your outer layout must be a scrollview to enable you to place more elements inside and enable scrolling.

Sorry I missed your comment. I thought no one was coming to help me. What you suggested seems like a solution.
How do I make my relative layout scrollview?

I have added scrollview to the right hand side of the layout layout - layout:width = width 25dp; layout:height match_parent. However, the whole phone scrolls up and not the white screen inside the phone. Is this how this is suppose to work? Because I still can't add elements.
