Is there a SoftInputMode workaround to show whole dialog

I have a DialogFragment with two EditText fields and another field with an ImageView to increment its value underneath these, they all live in a ScrollView.

The problem is neither adjust mode for the soft keyboard shows my entire DialogFragment at once, despite there being space.

adjustResize causes the ScrollView to resize and hide the bottom row. adjustpan keeps the ScrollView size intact but the soft keyboard overlaps the bottom row.

Removing the ScrollView means either option causes the keyboard to overlap.

What I would like is for the DialogFragment to move up the screen without resizing. Can I make that happen? Ideally I'd like to keep the ScrollView in my Layout to better support very small screens.

adjustPan adjustResize The result I'd like

The only solution I found was to change the window options for the dialog fragment itself. Obviously on a smaller screen this will still be an issue so I am still looking for a better answer.

@Override
@NonNull
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    //I was using android.R.style.Theme_Translucent_NoTitleBar for another issue
    //but I don't think the theme makes any difference to how the window is laid out 
    //that is relevant to the below code
    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(getActivity(), android.R.style.Theme_Translucent_NoTitleBar);
    ... //Do your usual stuff here
    dialog.getWindow().setContentView(...);

    final WindowManager.LayoutParams params = dialog.getWindow().getAttributes();
    params.width = WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
    params.height = WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT;
    params.gravity = Gravity.TOP; //this is the important part
    dialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);

    return dialog;

}
