How do you force set the height of the view? I tried setMinimumHeight(0); before hiding but doesn't seem to work. I've set it to GONE but the space of the cell is still left behind.

The height and width are layout parameters, so you have to set the LayoutParameters object for the view with the new width/height. See this SO answer: stackoverflow.com/a/2767142/59058. Basically, width, height and margins are properties that really apply to the view's container, not the view itself, so you use a parent-linked LayoutParameter object to define them.

I don't think that works for a header, I got null on a header that was attached and called getLayoutParams() for.
