How would I display one view as an overlay of another?

by

Use a RelativeLayout for starters.

You could use the ViewGroup.addView(View child, int index, ViewGroup.LayoutParams params) or a variant along with ViewGroup.removeView(View view) or ViewGroup.removeViewAt(int index).

This would obviously require you to inflate the views manually using LayoutInflater but you could keep a global reference to each after inflating and just flip between the two.
