ScrollView next to static Layout Element in landscape View - android

I am trying to divide my fragment UI into two sections, the left half will be a static Image View and the right half will be a scrolling view to show a dynamic list. I have the following layout
`
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
android:id="#+id/appBarLayout">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#color/primaryText">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/primary"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/image_preview"
android:layout_below="#id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#50000000" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/scroll_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/toolbar"
android:layout_toEndOf="#id/image_preview">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<ListView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
`
The problem is that I cant get the ScrollView to scroll, even setting the height programmatically has no effect and the scrollview only shows list items that fit the screen

Looks like you misunderstood what ListView is.
What I see is you are trying to use ListView as a list item while ListView is like a LinearLayout with a Scroll.

static buttons inside a scrollView android

I am making an xml layout file consists of 3 parts:
Part 1: some information and image about a place.
Part 2: two horizontal Buttons.
Part 3: RecyclerView of some people reviews.
This is my layout file:
<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:name="com.example.abdo.foodproject.OneItemFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.example.abdo.foodproject.OneItemFragment"
tools:layout="#layout/activity_item"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/oneitem_background_theme"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="13"
>
<LinearLayout>
(...) <!--part 1-->
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout <!--part 2-->
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button
android:id="#+id/review_list"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/reviews"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/bestMeal_list"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryLight"
android:text="#string/best_meal"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView <!--part 3-->
android:id="#+id/recyclerViewItem"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
</LinearLayout>
I want to have the buttons fixed at my screen, at the top of the window, without losing their view from the scrolling.
Does anyone have any idea how to do so?
You can use CoordinatorLayout to achive such an affect.
CoordinatorLayout has 2 childs which one has also 2 childs as you wish
AppBarLayout: is a linear layout with vertical orientation. It's contents can disappear or pin according to "app:layout_collapseMode" attribute when scroll completed.
1.1. CollapsingToolbarLayout: you can put your "part 1" view in this place with app:layout_collapseMode="parallax" to parallax when disappearing.
1.2. Fixed view. LinearLayout: feel free to replace with your "part 2" view. This part will be pinned when scroll completed.
Scrollable view: it is RecyclerView in your example.
Final code should be similar like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
app:elevation="0dp">
<android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:contentScrim="#android:color/transparent"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlwaysCollapsed">
<!--part 1-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_collapseMode="parallax">
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout>
<!--part 2-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:weight_sum="2">
<Button
android:id="#+id/review_list"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/reviews"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/bestMeal_list"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryLight"
android:text="#string/best_meal"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<!--part 3-->
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerViewItem"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

ListView inside ScrollView(Mine issue is different)

I have a Drawer layout. I have placed a ViewPager for sliding Image and Tab Layout for dots, after I want a TextView and a ListView Again a TextView and again ListView, it goes for 4 times. So, I want my whole screen to be scroll-able. Here is the issue, if I am fixing the height of ListView app, it is starting from Bottom, If I am using match parent then list view does not scroll and it act like Linear layout and anything below this doesn't shows up. If I am using wrap content in height, the list view is scroll-able but nothing shows up after list view because whole screen is not scrolling.

here is link for migrate from ListView to RecyclerView
Please use NestedScrollView instead, it is similar to ScrollView, but it will support acting as both a nested scrolling parent and child. Please check this for more information and samples.

How to add an invisible view into LinearLayout?

Is that possible to add an invisible view/view group into LinearLayout which will not affect sizes of other children of the layout. Here are details.
I have a simple LinearLayout with a Toolbar, RecyclerView and a TextView at the bottom.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?android:attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#color/list_background" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="48dp"
android:text="#string/empty"/>
</LinearLayout>
Now I want to add a view or view group which is actually visible but not affect sizes and locations of other widgets and hide it with .offsetTopAndBottom method.
After that to use ViewDragHelper class to show the view based on some gestures. Actually the behavior is similar to BottomSheetBehavior but without CoordinatorLayout involved.
The only problem is that I cannot figure out how to add the view into LinearLayout.
To make a View not only invisible, but also not take up any space, thereby not interfering with layout behaviors like wrap_content or layout_weight you can set the Views visibility to gone either in XML using android_visibility="gone" or in code using yourView.setVisibility(View.GONE)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?android:attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#color/list_background" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="48dp"
android:text="#string/empty"/>
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:textColorHint="#android:color/white"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:hint="#string/loginEmailHint"
android:id="#+id/loginEmail"
android:visibility="gone"/>
</LinearLayout>
Here a an example

Android Linear Layout weight and soft keyboard issue

I'm trying to achieve the following view in a chat app. There are basically two states one with the soft touch keyboard showing and one without.
So this is my initial state without the keyboard showing.
This is what happens when the keyboard shows up.
This is what i'm trying to achieve.
Note
I'm current using "adjust-resize" as the windowSoftInputMode. I know using "adjust-pan" will fix the issue, but with "adjust-pan" there are 2 problems :
The toolbar also moves up making space for the edit-text and keyboard.
The editText gets partly covered by the keyboard.
A layout experts help is needed here!
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
This is what my XML looks like:
<RelativeLayout
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">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/view_group_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
android:elevation="4dip" >
<!-- Toolbar stuff -->
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/bottom_bar"
android:layout_below="#+id/view_group_toolbar"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.6">
<include
layout="#layout/layout_that_covers_60%_of_the_screen (This is not my actual layout name :/ using it for understandability)"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/view_group_recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.4"
android:gravity="center_vertical">
<include
layout="#layout/layout_that_covers_40%_of_the_screen"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_bar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="60dip"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:padding="8dip" >
<!-- This is where my edit text resides -->
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
So here is what I think you should do,
use
windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" - The activity's main window is always resized to make room for the soft keyboard on screen. Also adjustResize keeps the ToolBar on top.
Try adding both your LinearLayouts inside a NestedScrollView. The reason I say this is because your NestedScrollView contents can scroll up.
I think your Layout will look like this- .
<RelativeLayout
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">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/view_group_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
android:elevation="4dip" >
<!-- Toolbar stuff -->
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</LinearLayout>
<NestedScrollView
android:layout_above="#+id/bottom_bar"
android:layout_below="#+id/view_group_toolbar">
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.6">
<include
layout="#layout/layout_that_covers_60%_of_the_screen (This is not my actual layout name :/ using it for understandability)"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/view_group_recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.4"
android:gravity="center_vertical">
<include
layout="#layout/layout_that_covers_40%_of_the_screen"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</NestedScrollView>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_bar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="60dip"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:padding="8dip" >
<!-- This is where my edit text resides -->
</RelativeLayout>
Let me know if this works for you.
EDIT 1:
If you have a RecyclerView inside your layouts, you may need to set this attribute for smooth scroll -
recyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);

How to scroll xml having two view pagers

The main page has two view pagers.
Top view pager used for circular page indicator (jakewharton viewpagerindicator) which displays different images.
Below that I have a view pager for implementing sliding tabs with GridView on each tap.
Please find the xml code below
<ScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<LinearLayout xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".Shopping">
<include
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
layout="#layout/toolbar"></include>
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="4dp"
android:background="#faca07">
</TextView>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/pager1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="135dp"
android:layout_above="#+id/titles"
android:overScrollMode="never"></android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>
<com.viewpagerindicator.CirclePageIndicator
android:id="#+id/titles"
style="#style/CustomCirclePageIndicator"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:padding="5dp" />
<tabs.SlidingTabLayout
android:id="#+id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
android:elevation="2dp"
android:overScrollMode="always" />
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/pager"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
></android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
I need to implement scroll view for the whole page, tried using common ScrollView which doesn't work.
GridView has separate scroll, which is working properly, but I want a common scroll for both view pagers.
Any help would be really greatful.
Thanks.
