I am currently trying to use a preference fragment within a Navigation Drawer. There are multiple preference fragments that may populate a frame layout, all of which could be of a different size and may not be the full height of the parent.
For this reason I was wanting to use wrap_content for the frame layout height, but as preference fragment extends from ListView this causes problems (reference ListView Wrap Content). wrap_content does provide the desired result, although I can see that OnBindView is being called continuously, which highly inefficient and causes my data binding methods to be called all the time.
Has anyone got any simple out the box solutions I could try? Or would this be a case for a custom View where I would measure the children of the fragment and set the height at run time? Any help on this would be much appreciated.
The layout below shows the drawer layout which is included in the main layout.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="20dp">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<RadioGroup
android:id="#+id/drawer_radio"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<RadioButton
android:id="#+id/drawer_radio_button_0"
style="#style/ButtonDrawer"
android:background="#drawable/fft_button"
android:button="#null"
android:contentDescription="#string/image_button"/>
<RadioButton
android:id="#+id/drawer_radio_button_1"
style="#style/ButtonDrawer"
android:background="#drawable/trigger_button"
android:button="#null"
android:contentDescription="#string/image_button"/>
</RadioGroup>
</LinearLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer_preference_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="10dp"
tools:layout="#android:layout/simple_list_item_1"
android:background="#drawable/floating_preference_background_shape"/>
</LinearLayout>
Ok, so I think I found a good solution so I thought I'd post it for others to use.
The way I had to do this was to extend from PreferenceFragment and do some measurements at run time, in which I can use to resize the listView.
I did this with the following.
public class PreferenceFragmentHeightWrap extends PreferenceFragment {
/**
* We can guarantee that all children will be in the adaptor list by this point
*/
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
setListViewHeightBasedOnItems(getView());
}
/**
* Sets ListView height dynamically based on the height of the items.
*
* #return true if the listView is successfully resized, false otherwise
*/
public boolean setListViewHeightBasedOnItems(View view) {
ListView listView = (ListView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.list);
ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter();
if(listAdapter != null) {
int numberOfItems = listAdapter.getCount();
// Get total height of all items.
int totalItemsHeight = 0;
for(int itemPos = 0; itemPos < numberOfItems; itemPos++) {
View item = listAdapter.getView(itemPos, null, listView);
item.measure(0, 0);
totalItemsHeight += item.getMeasuredHeight();
}
// Get total height of all item dividers.
int totalDividersHeight = listView.getDividerHeight() *
(numberOfItems - 1);
// Set list height.
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = view.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalItemsHeight + totalDividersHeight + listView.getPaddingBottom()
+ listView.getPaddingTop();
view.setLayoutParams(params);
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
Hopefully this will make sense and feel free to comment if you see anything untoward.

I am facing problem to implement two listview in scrollview. I have activity in which I have scrollview.
here is image what I want
layout design
actually design
I want to make invoice which contain two listviews one for items and one for tracking data. I am able to make listview height dynamically and also disable its click event. but now on listview I am not able to click or scroll screen.
all components are in scrollview. but I am not able to scroll scrollview when I touch on listviews.
here is code where I'm managing height of listview
public static boolean setListViewHeightBasedOnItems(ListView listView) {
ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter();
if (listAdapter != null) {
int numberOfItems = listAdapter.getCount();
// Get total height of all items.
int totalItemsHeight = 0;
for (int itemPos = 0; itemPos < numberOfItems; itemPos++) {
View item = listAdapter.getView(itemPos, null, listView);
float px = 500 * (listView.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density);
item.measure(View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec((int)px, View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST), View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(0, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED));
totalItemsHeight += item.getMeasuredHeight();
}
// Get total height of all item dividers.
int totalDividersHeight = listView.getDividerHeight() *
(numberOfItems - 1);
// Get padding
int totalPadding = listView.getPaddingTop() + listView.getPaddingBottom();
// Set list height.
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = listView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalItemsHeight + totalDividersHeight + totalPadding;
listView.setLayoutParams(params);
listView.requestLayout();
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}`
I tried recyclerview and with this property
note_recyclerview.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
but I didn't get what I want.
how can I achieve this?
Do not use ListView inside ScrollView.
As you are using multiple ListView, so you should use android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView instead of ScrollView to get proper scrolling behavior.
NestedScrollView is just like ScrollView, but it supports acting as
both a nested scrolling parent and child on both new and old versions
of Android. Nested scrolling is enabled by default.
See documentation.
Here is an example:
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listview1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</ListView>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listview2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
Hope this will help~
I would like to have a ScrollView that contains a ListView, which is obviously undesirable since a ListView has its own scroll bar.
Essentially I would like to have a RelativeLayout with a number of views forming the header of the page, followed by a ListView, similar to Facebook's profile page with the images followed by the feed.
If I simply put a ListView inside a RelativeLayout then only the ListView area is scrollable instead of the whole page.
Is there a way to do this without including the header (RelativeLayout) as the first element in the ListView?
It looks like there is a method on ListView called addHeaderView. I can use this to add the RelativeLayout at the top. Thanks for your input.
Actually I haven't done this myself, but I kinda know the trick to achieve your goal and give a sexy look to your layout.
First get rid of that ScrollView.
Then put a monitor(listener) on your ListView to detect how much your ListView has scrolled and consider a reasonable threshold to detect *.
Now what is * ? it is the time you should "Hide" or "slowly fade" your header items. when user scrolls down the ListView and reaches that threshold slowly fade or hide the header. Then again when user scrolls up use a threshold to decide when to make your header items visible.
As far as I know this is the idea. Also try checking github and android-arsenal I guess there should be a library for this that will ease your work.
Use this class
public class Helper {
public static void getListViewSize(ListView myListView) {
ListAdapter myListAdapter = myListView.getAdapter();
if (myListAdapter == null) {
// do nothing return null
return;
}
//set listAdapter in loop for getting final size
int totalHeight = 0;
for (int size = 0; size < myListAdapter.getCount(); size++) {
View listItem = myListAdapter.getView(size, null, myListView);
listItem.measure(0, 0);
totalHeight += listItem.getMeasuredHeight();
}
//setting listview item in adapter
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = myListView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalHeight + (myListView.getDividerHeight() * (myListAdapter.getCount() - 1));
myListView.setLayoutParams(params);
// print height of adapter on log
Log.i("height of listItem:", String.valueOf(totalHeight));
}
}
and in the activity class, use,
Helper.getListViewSize(ur listview name);
Try this Code.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="10dp" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/headerLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="TextView" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"

</LinearLayout>

</ListView>

I have an activity that has a ScrollView with a vertical LinearLayout that has two fragments that are PreferenceFragment instances as shown in the following layout file:
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
tools:context="com.foo.app.SettingsActivity">
<fragment
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:name="com.foo.app.SettingsFragment"
android:id="#+id/fragment_settings"/>
<fragment
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:name="com.foo.app.NotificationSettingsFragment"
android:id="#+id/fragment_notification_settings"/>
</LinearLayout>
The problem is that the two fragments show up with just their PreferenceCategory title and the actual fragment UI is zero height and not visible. Oddly, it is possible to scroll each fragment individually and see the missing fragment UI. It is as if each Fragment is inside a ScrollView.
What I expected was for the two fragments to be sized to wrap their content and there be a single vertical slider to scroll the LinearLayout containing both fragments.
In case it is relevant, the two fragments extends android.preference.PreferenceFragment and do not define their layout in a layout file. Instead they load their Preference UI as follows:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Load the preferences from an XML resource
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref_notification);
}
TIA for your help.
Remove the outer ScrollView. I had the same problem and that solved it for me.
I haven't found it in the documentation yet, but apparently the PreferenceFragment supplies its own ScrollView around the PreferenceScreen. Somehow that leads to a wrap_content height just large enough to show the first element (e.g. a category header).
The question is quite old but in case someone else stumbles upon this, I've managed to find a solution. Just like #Ewoks mentioned, I had to settle for a fixed height as well (which didn't always play well with varying dpi of the devices).
But with the help of this code I managed to make the height dynamic, which wraps the content nicely.
In your PreferenceFragment class do as follows:
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
if (getView() != null) {
ListView listView = (ListView) getView().findViewById(android.R.id.list);
Adapter adapter = listView.getAdapter();
if (adapter != null) {
int height = 0;
//int height = listView.getPaddingTop() + listView.getPaddingBottom();
for (int i = 0; i < adapter.getCount(); i++) {
View item = adapter.getView(i, null, listView);
item.measure(0, 0);
height += item.getMeasuredHeight();
}
FrameLayout frame = (FrameLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.content_frame); //Modify this for your fragment
ViewGroup.LayoutParams param = frame.getLayoutParams();
param.height = height + (listView.getDividerHeight() * adapter.getCount());
frame.setLayoutParams(param);
}
}
}
Hope this helps someone!
Given that you can't remove the outer ScrollView, what worked for me is to change it to be a android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView and then in Activity's onCreate to run:
findViewById(R.id.nested_scroll_view).setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
Try setting the the android:layout_weight in each fragment to roughly the size of each settings list. E.g.
<fragment
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.3"
android:name="com.foo.app.SettingsFragment"
android:id="#+id/fragment_settings"/>
<fragment
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.7"
android:name="com.foo.app.NotificationSettingsFragment"
android:id="#+id/fragment_notification_settings"/>
I encountered a problem when embedding a ListView inside a ScrollView, or at least that's where I guess the problem comes from. The ListView element is a fairly simple one:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/item_root"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/general_background_list_middle"
android:paddingTop="4dp"
android:paddingBottom="4dp"
android:paddingRight="0dp"
android:paddingLeft="0dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/chat_friends_avatar"
android:layout_width="45dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="7dp"
android:layout_marginRight="8dp"
android:paddingRight="0dp"
android:paddingLeft="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:src="#drawable/friends_icon_avatar_default"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/chat_message_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/chat_friends_avatar"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_marginRight="35dp"
android:maxLines="10"
android:textSize="12dp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/chat_friend_name"
android:layout_width="140dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="3dp"
style="#style/SubText"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/chat_friends_avatar"
android:layout_below="#id/chat_message_text" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/chat_message_time"
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginRight="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="3dp"
style="#style/SubText"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#id/chat_message_text" />
</RelativeLayout>
However, when I embed a list of such elements in a ScrollView, in between some other elements, the rows are not fully displayed, they are clipped (see image below) if the text is wrapped. The ListView is instantiated as follows in the ScrollView:
<ListView
android:id="#+id/info_chat_listview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:cacheColorHint="#color/frame_background_color"
android:clickable="false"
android:divider="#null"
android:footerDividersEnabled="false"
android:focusable="false" >
</ListView>
If the height of the ListView is set to "wrap_content" only the first element is shown. That's why I'm using a method to calculate the height of the rows of the list:
private int getCommentsListHeight() {
if (mChatAdapter != null && mChatAdapter.getCount() != 0) {
if (mChatList != null) {// && mCommentsListItemHeight == 0) {
mCommentsListItemHeight = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < mChatAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
// Get view item height
View viewItem = mChatAdapter
.getView(i, new View(OnAirActivity.this), mChatList);
viewItem.measure(0, 0);
Logger.d(LOGTAG, "View " + i + " measured height = " + viewItem.getMeasuredHeight());
mCommentsListItemHeight += viewItem.getMeasuredHeight();
}
}
//return mChatAdapter.getCount() * mCommentsListItemHeight;
return mCommentsListItemHeight;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
Unfortunately, in case when the text inside the TextView is wrapped, even over several lines, the height of the row element returned by the getMeasuredHeight() method is constant. Also the getLineCount() called on the TextView inside the row element returns 1 even if the text is wrapped.
On the other hand, if this ListView is embedded in a LinearLayout, everything works fine and the full list is displayed with no clipping.
Do you have any suggestions as to what might be wrong here? I really don't like the idea of manually measuring the height of the list elements and it apparently doesn't work but why can't android nicely stretch the ListView inside the ScrollView to fit it all in there?
Clipped list:
Use this method created by https://stackoverflow.com/users/205192/dougw
public static void setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(ListView listView) {
ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter();
if (listAdapter == null) {
// pre-condition
return;
}
int totalHeight = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < listAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
View listItem = listAdapter.getView(i, null, listView);
listItem.measure(0, 0);
totalHeight += listItem.getMeasuredHeight();
}
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = listView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalHeight + (listView.getDividerHeight() * (listAdapter.getCount() - 1));
listView.setLayoutParams(params);
}
It's a BAD practice to encapsulate ListView within a ScrollView because ListView itself contains scrolling capabilities. You should implement a solution that does not contain such hierarchy of views and I hope it will do the magic :)
Here resource of main layout with ScrollView:
<ScrollView android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:id="#+id/parentLayout"/>
</ScrollView>
Here the code to insert items:
parentLayout.removeAllViews();
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
for (int i = comments.size() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
CommentInfo comment = comments.get(i);
View view = inflater.inflate(your_resource_id, null, false);
TextView commentsContent =(TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.commentContent);
if (commentsContent != null) {
String data = String.format("%s (by %s, %s)", comment.getCommentText(), comment.getUserName(),
commentsContent.setTextSize(st.getTextSize());
commentsContent.setText(data);
}
parentLayout.addView(view, 0);
}
I had the same problem in my project.You need to create simple LinearLayout inside ScrollView. After that you need create new View with your listview item xml using LayoutInflater. After creation put all data in new View and add to LinearLayout as child view:
linearLayot.addView(newView, position_you_need).
Hope it would help you!
I took the recommendation of not using a ListView element inside a ScrollView to heart and decided to use a slightly brute force method to achieve what I need. Since there is a constant number of up to five list rows that need to be displayed I removed the ListView instantiation from the xml file and replaced it with five instances of rows:
<include android:id="#+id/info_comment_1" layout="#layout/chat_single_message" />
<include android:id="#+id/info_comment_2" layout="#layout/chat_single_message" />
<include android:id="#+id/info_comment_3" layout="#layout/chat_single_message" />
<include android:id="#+id/info_comment_4" layout="#layout/chat_single_message" />
<include android:id="#+id/info_comment_5" layout="#layout/chat_single_message" />
In the Activity class I declare five placeholders for these views:
private RelativeLayout mChatMessages[] = new RelativeLayout[COMMENTS_NUMBER];
and initialize them with:
mChatMessages[0] = (RelativeLayout) mMoreInfoLayout.findViewById(R.id.info_comment_1);
mChatMessages[1] = (RelativeLayout) mMoreInfoLayout.findViewById(R.id.info_comment_2);
mChatMessages[2] = (RelativeLayout) mMoreInfoLayout.findViewById(R.id.info_comment_3);
mChatMessages[3] = (RelativeLayout) mMoreInfoLayout.findViewById(R.id.info_comment_4);
mChatMessages[4] = (RelativeLayout) mMoreInfoLayout.findViewById(R.id.info_comment_5);
Then, whenever a new message is received I use the ChatAdapter (the same I used for the ListView previously) and call its getView() method:
protected void updateChatMessages() {
int msgCount = mChatAdapter.getCount();
for (int i = 0; i < COMMENTS_NUMBER; i++) {
if (msgCount <= i) {
mChatMessages[i].setVisibility(View.GONE);
} else {
mChatMessages[i] = (RelativeLayout) mChatAdapter.getView(i, mChatMessages[i], null);
mChatMessages[i].setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
}
I don't inflate the pariculat views ever again since the only thing that changes is the content of each row, not the layout. This means there is no performance penalty here.
This is basically a manual implementation of a ListView with a limited maximum number of elements. This time, however, ScrollView is able to fit them nicely and nothing gets clipped.
For a dynamic number of rows the approach suggested by Layko could be employed with the views being instantiated programatically and added to the LinearLayout inside the ScrollView.
I can see the ListView is inside a ViewPager; one other simple approach to resolving this issue is to add
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" to the ViewPager in your layout xml as seen below.
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/viewpager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"/>
To prevent the same behavior at the bottom of the list, you can also add android:layout_marginBottom="?attr/actionBarSize" to the ViewPager like so
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/viewpager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
android:layout_marginBottom="?attr/actionBarSize"/>
This is coming late, but I hope it helps any other person.
try it..
after create all view add bellow line for ScrollView location on screen (x,y)
ScrollView scrollView = (ScrollView)findViewById(R.id.scrollView);
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0,0);// top location zero index
I had a similar problem. I have a
RelativeLayout
listView
includeLayout
where I include some bottom nav beneath the listView with this
<include
android:id="#+id/includeLayout"
layout="#layout/bottom_nav_bar"
and my listView was clipped - not taking the full height available between the header and bottom nav. I tried various xml settings suggested in this and other threads, but what worked for me was to add
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/includeLayout"
to my listView. That seemed to pull the listView down to the top of the bottom nav, so that the listView is now using the full available height (and it scrolls as needed).
This works for me
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_status"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:textSize="17sp"
android:text="#string/text_list_devices" />
<ListView
android:id="#+id/lv_paired"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:cacheColorHint="#00000000"
android:layout_above="#+id/signup_t"
android:layout_below="#id/tv_status"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/signup_t"
style="?android:textAppearanceSmall"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:text="Print All Records"
android:typeface="sans"
android:layout_marginLeft="45dp"
android:layout_marginRight="45dp"
android:textSize="24sp"
android:background="#drawable/selector_for_button"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</RelativeLayout>
This is BAD practice. But there are some situations we can not avoid using that. For example dynamic e-commerce layouts we may put multiple lists or recycle views but you don't want to scroll inside a single item height (if accidentally wanted!!). I faced this kind of problem. I fixed using a simple way. I don't tell this is the correct way but it may help some.
!! I used to recycle the view.
(01) Create an Interface to return view height.
public interface AfterViewLoadListener {
void onViewHeightMeasured(int height, String mode);
}
(02) implement with your activity
public class *Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements AfterViewLoadListener{
/** your codes **/
final SimpleListRecycleAdapter order_adapter = new SimpleListRecycleAdapter(this,"ORDER");
}
#Override
public void onViewHeightMeasured(int height, String mode) {
if(mode.equals("ORDER") && height > 0){
recycleView.setMinimumHeight(height);
}
}
(03) inside the recycle view custom adapter
AfterViewLoadListener viewLoadListener = null;
public SimpleListRecycleAdapter(AfterViewLoadListener listener, String mode) {
if(listener instanceof AfterViewLoadListener){
viewLoadListener = listener;
}
this.mode = mode;
}
(04) override the onViewAttachedToWindow method
#Override
public void onViewAttachedToWindow(#NonNull SimpleListViewHolder holder) {
super.onViewAttachedToWindow(holder);
View view = holder.itemView;
view.measure(0, 0);
this.viewMinHeight = view.getMeasuredHeight();
if(!firstFlag){
firstFlag = true;
viewLoadListener.onViewHeightMeasured(this.viewMinHeight*filtered.length(),mode);
}
}
(05) That's it. It worked for me.
Is there a way to have a ListView with the with equal to the longest row? Setting wrap_content for the ListView 's width has no effect. The ListView covers the whole screen horizontally.
This is the activity layout
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="#+id/listview"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/country_picker_bg" />
and this is the row xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/padding"
android:padding="#dimen/padding"
android:background="#drawable/white_round_rect" >
<TextView android:id="#+id/title"
style="#style/GreyTextView"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/padding"/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/orange_arrow_selector"/>
</LinearLayout>
Thank you,

Sometimes, you know there will always be a limited number of items, maybe 5, maybe 40. In those times you still want to use a ListView and you still want to wrap content.
For those times there is this method:
/**
* Computes the widest view in an adapter, best used when you need to wrap_content on a ListView, please be careful
* and don't use it on an adapter that is extremely numerous in items or it will take a long time.
*
* #param context Some context
* #param adapter The adapter to process
* #return The pixel width of the widest View
*/
public static int getWidestView(Context context, Adapter adapter) {
int maxWidth = 0;
View view = null;
FrameLayout fakeParent = new FrameLayout(context);
for (int i=0, count=adapter.getCount(); i<count; i++) {
view = adapter.getView(i, view, fakeParent);
view.measure(View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
int width = view.getMeasuredWidth();
if (width > maxWidth) {
maxWidth = width;
}
}
return maxWidth;
}
Use it like so (notice I added some extra space to the width just in case):
listView.getLayoutParams().width = getWidestView(mContext, adapter)*1.05;
Is there a way to have a ListView with the with equal to the longest row?
No, in part because we have no way to know what the longest row is.
Let's say that you attach a ListAdapter to the ListView, where getCount() on the ListAdapter returns a value of 1,234,567. To determine the width of the longest row, we would have to create each row and examine its width. This would take hours, and the user will not be happy during those hours.
