'why I still can't set progress bar in the center of the screen ? even though I have set it in constraint layout

enter image description here

as you can see from the image above, the progress bar is always right below the tab layout, even though I have set the progress bar always in the center of the screen like this

enter image description here

but if I choose the tab index == 1 then when the progress bar will show in the center while fetching data from the internet

here is the xml I use
