I am having some issues with scroll view. My scrollview contains a parent constraint layout, which further contains two more constraint layouts, and two buttons. The child constraint layout at the bottom contains a listview, that is populated at runtime. In order to take advantage of the scroll view, I did the following:
Set the height of listview to wrap_content.
Set the height of the second child constraint layout (containing the listview) as wrap_content.
Set the height of the parent constraint layout (containing the two child constraint layout) to wrap_content.
Set the height of the root view, that is the scrollview to be wrap_content.
PS: After the two child constraint layouts, there are two buttons in the parent constraint layout.
But the result is, scrolling does not go beyond the third item in the listview (I have total of 5 items in the list view), also the buttons are not visible (they are out of the screen, below).
If someone could help me in identifying the possible issues, that will be great. Googling wasn't much of a help.
Here is my code: (child items are jumbled up)

I tried googling for this thing. I saw some related results, but I wasn't able to solve my issue following them. The results were pretty specific to the asker's code.

I'm a beginner on Android, but my question require a little bit knowledge in UI and not in programming.
I have an xml code, i have their some views but for this question only two components are relevant.
The component is a ScrollView "father" that has only one "son" that is a TextView.
When setting padding in ScrollView, if the text inside the TextView is long, first line of TextView is a little bit truncated (although i am using padding). But on the other hand, when using margin_layout text is seen fine. I read a lot on the difference between margin and padding and from what i have understand setting padding inside father should give the same affect as setting margin inside son. I emphasize that i'm using only one son.
Code with margin (where text is fine):

In addition, putting padding inside CardLayout make thins to be even bad than when adding padding inside the ScrollView
Can someone explain me the reason?
It seems that the difference related to ScrollView odd behavior. I fixed the issue by setting android:fillViewport="true", and removing padding and margin_layout
I have an app that displays long strings of text with the press of some buttons, the problem comes when I display a lot of text and the ScrollView just stops scrolling for some reason.

I have seen some people use this same method that I'm using here and it works for them just fine.
Your layout has a few things that look wrong and could explain
undefined behaviour.
change the ScrollView height and width to 0dp which means to respect the constraints set on the view
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
...
Remove the constraints from the child of the ScrollView as ContraintLayout only applies rules to direct children.
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="14dp"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="128dp"
android:text=""
/>
I'm using Android Oreo AutoTextSize capability in my project.
Every thing works fine except that at first when RecyclerView being loaded, some of textView that uses AutoTextSize has a margin bottom on some RecyclerView items but when I scroll down and then come back to that items, problem solves.
and Although in some items, length of TextView is same with another item, but text sizes are different.
You can see my problem in below image :
When I scroll down and then come back, it is ok
here is items layout :

My xml is composed by one constraint layout. Inside this there are 2 buttons and 1 nested scroll view. Inside the ScrollView there are various elements including recycle view. I would like that the recycle view not scroll but scroll only the nested scroll view. I have disabled the scroll of recycle view in this mode
(recyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);)
but the problem is that the nested scroll view not scrolling. Can you help me?
I attach the code below.

As i answered in comments
For Someone other facing same problem. This might help.
For some reasons ScrollView doesn't scroll when having ConstraintLayout inside it.
For Workaround we can use LinearLayout or RelativeLayoutinstead of ConstraintLayout inside ScrollView. OR
As OP does put the ConstraintLayout inside Linear or Relative Layout does the trick.
According to Ali Ahmed's answer, a ScrollView doesn't scroll if you have a ConstraintLayout inside it. Well that's not true. I have been using ConstraintLayout inside ScrollView and everything works perfectly fine. Well the problem with the code that you posted is that you are using 0dpas the layout_height of your RecyclerView. 0dp means match_parent. You should be using wrap_content as your layout_height. So that the RecyclerView expands its height according to the elements in it. Doing so will make your code work fine.
I have a fragment containing a layout

How can I remove the spacing above?
The problem is with your Activity where you had inflated the Fragment. Actually, i tried it on My system and I'm Getting Proper result.
Check Your Activity's Layout where the FrameLayout is Used.
2nd Possbility
Check your May be Your Theme is Changing this . Check all the possibilities
Try the following code Replacing the ConstraintLayout after the Spinner
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="#+id/linearLayout2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/android_date_bgd"

app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
What happened to me was smiliar, a space on top that did not show in the editor.
The problem was not in the main layout file I was focusing on, I was displaying some fragments thru a viewpager and the margins on the editor for the pager were 0 so the editor preview did not showed a space on top. However the fragments that were being created/shown had of course a different layout file and in that layout there was a huge space on top because I erroneously thought centering the layout vertically was a good idea for some reason (mainly because I code at night before bed and sometimes im too tired lol). Since the layout height for the viewpager did not match the dimensions of the fragment I had some weird behaviors trying to position the elements of the main layout file.
I was facing a similar problem. By looking at the code snippet in the question I saw the similarity that we both have android:fitsSystemWindows set to True. By removing this android:fitsSystemWindows attribute, my space at the top was removed.
