回答1:

Reading this, it appears you want the project_name view to overlay the org_name view. You can do this by aligning the bottom of the views.

Change this line:

android:layout_below="@id/org_name"

To this:

android:layout_alignBottom="@id/org_name"

That will align the bottom of the two views, effectively placing project_name on top of the org_name view.

回答2:

The reason they aren't overlapping is the android:layout_below="@id/org_name" in the second TextView. If you remove that, I think it should work as you want it to. If not, you might want to try a FrameLayout instead of a RelativeLayout.
