I have a Fragment with nested fragments, using a Viewpager. When the keyboard opens, the RelativeLayout covers the EditText
Is there any way to open the keyboard without the RelativeLayout go up?
Parent Fragment layout:
?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#color/colorBackground"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/vp_service_creation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/rr_semi_circle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="-180dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:background="#drawable/half_circle_green"
android:layout_weight="1">
<dk.ostebaronen.droid.viewpagerindicator.CirclePageIndicator
android:id="#+id/pi_circles"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="90dp"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
I have tried different approach for your case.
Option 1:
You can try adjustNothing, but the keyboard will potentially cover your EditText.
<application ... >
<activity
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing" ... >
...
</activity>
...
</application>
You can refer to the tutorial here
Option 2:
If you want to keep adjustPan for auto push the view up when the EditText is covered by the keyboard, I suggest you add a listener to detect the keyboard visibility. When the keyboard is visible, hide rr_semi_circle layout. When user finish input text and keyboard is hidden, show the rr_semi_circle layout again.
Add ScrollView at the following sample like that.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#color/colorBackground"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/vp_service_creation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/rr_semi_circle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="-180dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:background="#drawable/half_circle_green"
android:layout_weight="1">
<dk.ostebaronen.droid.viewpagerindicator.CirclePageIndicator
android:id="#+id/pi_circles"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="90dp"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
Try this
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
in your androidManifest.xml, this will not make the UX to resize the components inside but pan itself and give you the same output you desire.
I'm not sure what title should I put in here but here is the question.
I want my fields to be attached to the bottom of the screen when keyboard is out.
When there is no keyboard, I want my fields to be at the center of the screen.
Basically 1 and 2 are spaces and I want Space I to be first candidate on squeezing when keyboard is out.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

add this in your activity
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_HIDDEN);
Please check this Link:
You can add in your menifest for the activity you want to prevent such issue. Also make sure if you are having a bit more content use scrollView as a parent. And soft input mode as "adjustResize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
or
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
I want to make a layout that lets me scroll down using constraint layout, but I don't know how to go about it. Should the ScrollView be the parent of the ConstraintLayout like this?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:id="#+id/Constraint"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
Or the other way around? Maybe someone can point me to a good tutorial on this or give an example, I can't seem to find one.
Also, I don't know if this is a bug or some configuration that I don't have set up but I've seen images like this one :
where there are some components outside the blueprint "blue rectangle" yet they are visible, while on my side if I place a component on the "white space" I can't see it or move it anywhere, and it appears on the component tree.
UPDATE :
I found a way to make the constraint layout scrollable in the design tool, using a horizontal guideline to push down the constraint layout border and extend it beyond the device, after that, you can use the guideline as the new bottom of the constraint layout to anchor the components.
It seems that it is working, I don't know what dependency you were working with but in this one
compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
Is working, this is what I did
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</ScrollView>
Scroll Top
Scroll Bottom
There is a type of constraint which breaks the scroll function:
Just make sure you are not using this constraint on any view when wanting your ConstraintLayout to be scrollable with ScrollView :
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf=“parent”
If you remove these your scroll should work.
Explanation:
Setting the height of the child to match that of a ScrollView parent is contradictory to what the component is meant to do. What we want most of the time is for some dynamic sized content to be scrollable when it is larger than a screen/frame; matching the height with the parent ScrollView would force all the content to be displayed into a fixed frame (the height of the parent) hence invalidating any scrolling functionality.
This also happens when regular direct child components are set to layout_height="match_parent".
If you want the child of the ScrollView to match the height of the parent when there is not enough content, simply set android:fillViewport to true for the ScrollView.
Use NestedScrollView with viewport true is working good for me
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="700dp">
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
for android x use this
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
.....other views....
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
To summarize, you basically wrap your android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout view in a ScrollView within the text of the *.xml file associated with your layout.
Example activity_sign_in.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".SignInActivity"> <!-- usually the name of the Java file associated with this activity -->
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/gradient"
tools:context="app.android.SignInActivity">
<!-- all the layout details of your page -->
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</ScrollView>
Note 1: The scroll bars only appear if a wrap is needed in any way, including the keyboard popping up.
Note 2: It also wouldn't be a bad idea to make sure your ConstraintLayout is big enough to the reach the bottom and sides of any given screen, especially if you have a background, as this will ensure that there isn't odd whitespace. You can do this with spaces if nothing else.
Just use constraint layout inside NestedScrollView or ScrollView.
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/white">
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
thats it. enjoy your coding.
A lot of answers here, nothing really simple. It's important that the ScrollView's layout_height is set to match_parent while the layout_height of the ContraintLayout is wrap_content
<ScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
...

Use Exactly like this u will definitely find your solution...
TO make a scrollable layout, the layout is correct. It will not be scrollable until there is reason to scroll(just like in any other layout). So add enough content and it will be scrollable, just like with any layout(Linear, Relative, etc). However, you cannot scroll properly in Blueprint or design-mode when designing with ConstraintLayout and ScrollView.
Meaning:
You can make a scrollable ConstraintLayout, but it will not scroll properly in the editor due to a bug/scenario that wasn't considered. But even though scrolling doesn't work in the editor, it works on devices. (I have made several scrolling COnstraintLayouts, so I have tested it)
Note
Regarding your code. The ScrollView is missing a closing tag, I don't know if it is the case in the file or if it is a copy-paste miss, but you may want to look at it.
For completing the previous answers I am adding the following example, which also takes into account the use of the AppBar. With this code, the Android Studio design editor seems to work fine with the ConstraintLayout.

you need surrounded my constraint-layout with a ScrollView tag and gave it the property android:isScrollContainer="true".
Take out bottom button from the nestedscrollview and take linearlayout as parent. Add bottom and nestedscrollview as thier children. It will work absolutely fine. In manifest for the activity use this - this will raise the button when the keyboard is opened
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateVisible"

There is a bug in version 2.2 that makes it impossible to scroll the ConstraintLayout. I guess it still exists. You can use LinearLayout or RelativeLayout alternatively.
Also, check out: Is it possible to put a constraint layout inside a ScrollView.
Constraintlayout is the Default for a new app. I am "learning to Android" now and had a very hard time figuring out how to handle the default "sample" code to scroll when a keyboard is up. I have seen many apps where I have to close the keyboard to click "submit" button and sometimes it does not goes away. Using this [ScrollView / ContraintLayout / Fields] hierarchy it is working just fine now. This way we can have the benefits and ease of use from ConstraintLayout in a scrollable view.
You can use HorizontalScrollView and it'll work as well!
This is how I resolved it:
If you are using Nested ScrollView i.e. ScrollView within a ConstraintLayout then use the following configuration for the ScrollView instead of "WRAP_CONTENT" or "MATCH_PARENT":
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#+id/someOtherWidget"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
in scrollview make height and width 0
add Top_toBottomOfand Bottom_toTopOf constraints
that's it.
For me, none of the suggestions about removing bottom constraints nor setting scroll container to true seemed to work. What worked: expand the height of individual/nested views in my layout so they "spanned" beyond the parent by using the "Expand Vertically" option of the Constraint Layout Editor as shown below.
For any approach, it is important that the dotted preview lines extend vertically beyond the parent's top or bottom dimensions

when keyboard is showing i can not show my button whitch is a bottom position,scrollview now working.
i searched about my problem and i tryed to change windowSoftInputMode in manifest file
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
but i don't need this solution because my button moving keyboard up when my keyboard is showing...
how i can solve my problem? if anyone knows solution please help me
thanks everyone
put your bottom button outside the scrollview. Make two separate layouts. In upper layout put your scrollview content and in lower layout put your bottom button.
For that use below code
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:isScrollContainer="true">
I have a very simple layout that i designed to achieve the tool bar at the top of the screen. I am using weights here to fit all devices. Giving like 11 to the tool bar and 89 to the content body. That will fit all screens no matter what.
Problem:
I have a scroll view inside the content body and inside that scroll view i have like 4 EditText views. When i click the last EditText to type into it my layout gets pushed up specially the tool bar for which i have to use weights.
Now please don't tell me not to use weights, just tell me how can i fix it. how can i stop the layout pushing up? Just like Gmail Client. when you are typing the header is not pushed up, stays there that you can save or send the email.
Main.xml:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

In your manifest you want you add edit or add the android:windowSoftInputMode. Then set it to adjustNothing, if you don't want the screen to adjust.
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan|adjustNothing">

adjustNothing 0x30 Don't resize or pan the window to make room for the soft input area; the window is never adjusted for it.

Please use weight ="0.11" and weight ="0.89"
instead of
weight ="11" amd weight ="89" in your layout.
The layout is pushing up because scroll view adjusts to the entire screen when input method appears.
Try using ScrollView's property isScrollContainer by setting it to false.
It should look like the following:
...
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:isScrollContainer="false" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10" />
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10" />
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:minLines="6"
android:ems="10" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
...
If this does not help consider setting proper windowSofInputMode in your activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
