You can do this in java with the method relativeLayout.setClickable(false) or in xml android:clickable="false"

I think you can easily setClickable(false) to the relative layout that you don't want to interact. Hope this help.

It depends on what would you like to disable and what kinds of interaction are handled by that RelativeLayout and its contents.

The easiest way to turn off touches and key presses is to override dispatch* methods and provide empty implementations. It prevents all touches, keys, etc. from being passed to the children. For example to disable touches and keys:

public class MyRelativeLayout extends RelativeLayout{
    @Override
    public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
        return true;
    }
}
