using scrollview to show button behind edittext keyboard

I have a layout in which I have an image,textview, editbox and a button so whenever the keyboard opens I wanted my screen to scroll down to the button so that the user can always type and press submit button. I did do this by using scrollview but than I removed the scroll view did some changes and now when I again use a scrollview it does not work.
here is the code please check.

and in my main activity I am using the scrollto method to go to my image button.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ImageButton submit;
EditText feedBack;
static public String saveFeedBack="";
ScrollView view;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
submit = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.submit);
feedBack = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.feedback);
view = (ScrollView) findViewById(R.id.scroll);
view.scrollTo(submit.getScrollX(),submit.getScrollY());
}
public void onSubmit(View view){
saveFeedBack = feedBack.getText().toString();
if(saveFeedBack.length() >=4) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Main3Activity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Enter valid Feedback please.",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
#Override
protected void onRestart() {
super.onRestart();
feedBack.setText("");
feedBack.setHint("Enter Feedback");
}
}
but when I run my application the scrollview scrolls to my edit text but not my button. I have tried adjustResize,adjustPan and all those things but none of them worked.

ok after much of research I have solved your problem. Actually the thing is when you use scroll to any position inside onCreate it doesn't work because a small delay is required to inflate the view.
So use the below code inside your onCreate:
view.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
view.fullScroll(ScrollView.FOCUS_DOWN);
}
},200);
Hope it Helps!!!

I want to click on TextView id=need_an_account that like below:
public class LoginActivity extends Activity implements View.OnClickListener{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId())
{
case R.id.need_an_account:
// some code
break;
}
}
}
Note that i don't want to use findViewById() method
But onClick not Working at all how can I solve this problem?

If you don't want to use OnClickListener, Here is an alternative -
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
android:text="#string/need_an_account"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:textStyle="italic"
android:onClick="myTextViewMethod"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:id="#+id/need_an_account" />
Now write myTextViewMethodin you Activity
public void myTextViewMethod(View v) {
// Do your stuff here...
}
Plus point, No need to implement OnClickListener, Android will do it in background.
And if you wanna use an Interface View.OnClickListener
Simple, set need_an_account.setOnClickListener(this);

In oncreate add this,
TextView need_an_account = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.need_an_account);
need_an_account.setOnClickListener(this);

You can add OnClick to your xml to avoid using findViewById:
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
android:text="#string/need_an_account"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:textStyle="italic"
android:onClick="textViewClick"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:id="#+id/need_an_account" />
and then write your function in the activity as:
public void textViewClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId())
{
case R.id.need_an_account:
// some code
break;
}
}
no need to implement an OnClickListener if you dont want to define the TextView programatically. Remember to set TextView to clickable and for authenticity i also set background to ?selectableItemBackground so the user knows that the TextView can be clicked

How to position an ImageView in the same place in different screen sizes?

I been working on a simple android app that calculates a person's Body Mass Index, I have all the features working but positioning the arrow in the right place in the color bar corresponding to the user's screen size is what Im stuck on. I have it working by setting the X and Y values of the arrow ImageView but obviously the place of the arrow changes when i test my application in different screen sizes even though im coverting a dp value to pixels. How can I position the arrow ImageView so that it stays the same in different screen sizes?

Add Linearlayout as subparent of childview,use its orientation and gravity attribute you can easily get the design in more optimize way and suitable for everyscreen size.
here i have used RelativeLayout as Parent and LinearLayout as sub-parent of childview.

I have set for every linear layout visibility when one button which is working is clicked to visible, so i think that is not the problem.
This is the code in java:
if (getMovieCategory.equals("movies")) {
buttonCategoryMovie.setText("MOVIES");
buttonCategoryMovie.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
buttonCategoryMovie.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.ic_cancelar, 0, 0, 0);
buttonCategoryMovie.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String movies = "movies";
dbh.updateCategoryMovies(birthdayId, movies);
}
});
} else {
buttonCategoryMovie.setText("MOVIES");
buttonCategoryMovie.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
buttonCategoryMovie.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.ic_add, 0, 0, 0);
buttonCategoryMovie.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
dbh.deleteMovies(getMovieCategory);
}
});
}
Here everything is working except onClick. I'm getting no errors. My button doesn't respond on click.

try by handling setOnClickListener out side the if condition.

.You're coding with a lot of redundancy and risking introducing errors, some of which may not be immediately obvious. Here's a leaner and clearer version of your posted code sample, using one onClick method to handle your if(){else} conditions.
buttonCategoryMovie.setText("MOVIES");
buttonCategoryMovie.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
buttonCategoryMovie.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(
getMovieCategory.equals("movies") ? R.drawable.ic_cancelar : R.drawable.ic_add, 0,0,0
);
buttonCategoryMovie.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (getMovieCategory.equals("movies")) {
String movies = "movies";
dbh.updateCategoryMovies(birthdayId, movies);
} else {
dbh.deleteMovies(getMovieCategory);
}
}
});
EDIT 1: I mistakenly left out your String movies = "movies" and have added it back in. If you're only going to use this String once, to pass it as a parameter for dbh.updateCategoryMovies(birthdayId, movies), then you could simply call dbh.updateCategoryMovies(birthdayId, "movies") and delete String movies = "movies"
EDIT 2: Without seeing your entire source code, I don't know if you're at all changing the value of getMovieCategory somewhere. If not, then the below sample will change it on every click of the button (once you launch the app to test the sample, your buttonCategoryMovie will be a generic Button; once you start clicking the button, it should toggle between showing your R.drawable.ic_cancelar and R.drawable.ic_add resources. If the button toggles between these two drawables, then you at least know that the button is in fact receiving the onClick.
Remember that, if the value of getMovieCategory doesn't change on each click, your button will always perform only one of the sets of onClick actions and it'll look like nothing's happening.
If it works for you as I've described, then you're on your way ;)
buttonCategoryMovie.setText("MOVIES");
buttonCategoryMovie.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
buttonCategoryMovie.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (getMovieCategory.equals("movies")) {
getMoviesCategory = "not movies"; // this is here just to test
buttonCategoryMovie.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.ic_cancelar, 0, 0, 0);
String movies = "movies";
dbh.updateCategoryMovies(birthdayId, movies);
} else {
getMoviesCategory = "movies"; // this is here just to test
buttonCategoryMovie.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.ic_add, 0, 0, 0);
dbh.deleteMovies(getMovieCategory);
}
}
});

Try changing android:visibility="gone" to android:visibility="visible" in your LinearLayout.
And again add android:clickable="true" to your LinearLayout

I clicked on my clear button and it doesn't work

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP!! I NEED TO READ A TUTORIAL. :)
I know it's probably elementary and as you can tell I'm a newbie. I compared my code to others and don't see anything wrong. Thanks! When I click the clear Button after entering data, my edit fields are not cleared.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button clear = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn_clear);
clear.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v)
{
EditText potsize = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_pot_size);
EditText tocall = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_to_call);
EditText bepercent = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_be_per);
potsize.setText("");
tocall.setText("");
bepercent.setText("");
TextView potoddscalc = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv_pot_odds_calc);
potoddscalc.setText("5");
}
});
}

Try this instead. I believe your problem may be arising from creating new EditTexts and TextView objects every time you click the clear button. In the below code, the EditTexts and TextView are declared only once ,in the OnCreate method. Also, getText().clear() is the "official" way of clearing the text from an EditText (not that it really makes a visual difference).
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button clear = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn_clear);
EditText potsize = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_pot_size);
EditText tocall = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_to_call);
EditText bepercent = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_be_per);
TextView potoddscalc = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv_pot_odds_calc);
clear.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v)
{
potsize.getText().clear();
tocall.getText().clear();
bepercent.getText().clear();
potoddscalc.setText("5");
}
});
}

// try this way
