I am writing a photo picker for Facebook inside my app, i have a recyclerview with a grid layout and i want to prevent for scrolling up, i was able to do this by using scrollToPosition and this works but not the way i want
Problem
When i click in a photo on the 2 row that row jumps to the top and becomes the number 1 visible row, if i click the 3 row the samething happens.
I don't want the recycler to move if the view is visible it should remain the same, so if i click on a a photo that is on the last visible row i want the scroll to stay the same, i don't want it to make the last row the first.
Tries to solve it
I tried several things to fix this, i tried calling setNestedScrollingEnabled i followed this How to disable RecyclerView scrolling?
public static void onItemClick(int position){
//picker.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
for(int k = 0; k<photoBag.size();k++) {
if(k == position)
photoBag.set(position, new PhotoBag(photoBag.get(position).getPhoto(), true)); //Here im marking the photo to selected
else
photoBag.set(k, new PhotoBag(photoBag.get(k).getPhoto(), false));//Here im setting unselecting all the other photos
}
picker.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
picker.scrollToPosition(position);
//Log.d("FacebookPicker", "position " + grid.findFirstCompletelyVisibleItemPosition());
//picker.setNestedScrollingEnabled(true);
}
I thought that maybe disabling the scroll would lock the recyclerview on the corrent position but it didn't jumps right up.
I also tried getting the Vertical offset and set it after calling notifyDataSetChange but i can't find a way to set the offset programmatically
EDIT
Adapter
class PickerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<PickerAdapter.PickerAdapterHolder> {
public final String TAG = "PickerAdapter";
private ArrayList<PhotoBag> photoBag;
private Context context;
private OnClickListener onClickListener;
class PickerAdapterHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
ImageView photo;
ImageView imageBorder;
PickerAdapterHolder(View view) {
super(view);
photo = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.photoItem);
photo.setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.photoItem:
FacebookPhotoPicker.onItemClick(getAdapterPosition()); //i know that there are better ways to get the clicked item from other class but since im still debuging i don't need to worry about performace i just need it to work
break;
}
}
}
PickerAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<PhotoBag> itemList) {
this.photoBag = itemList;
this.context = context;
}
#Override
public PickerAdapterHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View layoutView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.facebook_picker_item, null);
return new PickerAdapterHolder(layoutView);
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final PickerAdapterHolder holder, final int position) {
if(photoBag.get(position).isSelected()){
int border = Math.round(TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 5, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics()));
Bitmap photo = photoBag.get(position).getPhoto();
photo = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(photo,photo.getWidth() - (border*2), photo.getHeight() - (border*2), false);
photo = addWhiteBorder(photo,border);
holder.photo.setImageBitmap(photo);
}else {
holder.photo.setImageBitmap(photoBag.get(position).getPhoto());
}
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return this.photoBag.size();
}
private Bitmap addWhiteBorder(Bitmap bmp, int borderSize) {
Bitmap bmpWithBorder = Bitmap.createBitmap(bmp.getWidth() + borderSize * 2, bmp.getHeight() + borderSize * 2, bmp.getConfig());
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bmpWithBorder);
canvas.drawColor(Color.WHITE);
canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, borderSize, borderSize, null);
return bmpWithBorder;
}
remove those 2 lines from onItemClick
picker.setAdapter(adapter);
picker.scrollToPosition(position);
every time you setAdapter it resets position, and now you don't need to set a new position again.
this should work. If it doesn't, check this answer of mine (and their comments) about providing ID How to remain at a scroll position in RecyclerView after adding items at its first index and call notifydatasetchange
I successfully added onPreDraw animations to a RecyclerView using the following code. I call this function immediately after the adapter is set.
public void initialRVAnimation() {
rvAnims = new ViewTreeObserver.OnPreDrawListener() {
#Override
public boolean onPreDraw() {
rv.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnPreDrawListener(this);
for (int i = 0; i < rv.getChildCount(); i++) {
View v = rv.getChildAt(i);
v.setTranslationY(Utils.getScreenHeight(LiveThreadActivity.this));
v.animate()
.setStartDelay(50 * i)
.translationY(0)
.setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator(3.f))
.setDuration(700)
.start();
}
return true;
}
};
rv.getViewTreeObserver().addOnPreDrawListener(rvAnims);
}
However, this causes an issue when adding items to the RecyclerView. The items seem to inherit the start delay specified in the animation and when a new item is added to the top of the RecyclerView, rather than all the items below moving down at once, they move in a staggered way. Here's a video to demonstrate the problem. Here's the normal animation when adding items when not using the onPreDraw animation.
Items are added to the RecyclerView using the following code.
public void addItem(View v) {
data.add(1, new Comment());
adapter.notifyItemInserted(1);
}
anybody can tell me how it is possible to sync the row elements size with the row position : getting smaller when above or below center of screen to fit to round screen on android wear watch ?
If you're working with wearables, you can use the WearableListView.
If so, in your adapter, you have your Item class which represents your row. This class can implement WearableListView.OnCenterProximityListener. There, you can animate your view in the callbacks : a small example without animation :
private static class Item extends LinearLayout implements WearableListView.OnCenterProximityListener {
private FontTextView label;
public Item(Context context) {
super(context);
View.inflate(context, R.layout.match_center_item, this);
label = (FontTextView) findViewById(R.id.label);
}
#Override
public void onCenterPosition(boolean animate) {
label.setAlpha(EXPAND_LABEL_ALPHA);
}
#Override
public void onNonCenterPosition(boolean animate) {
label.setAlpha(SHRINK_LABEL_ALPHA);
}
}
you can add RecyclerView.OnScrollListener to your RecyclerView and in on Scrolled you can iterate over all of child and find they position on screen something like (kotlin code):
for(i in 0..this.childCount){
val view = this.getChildAt(i)
when(i){
in 0..this.childCount/2 -1-> {view.scaleX = i.toFloat()/(this.childCount/2)
view.scaleY== i.toFloat()/(this.childCount/2) }
this.childCount/2 -> {view.scaleX = 1F ; view.scaleY = 1F}
else ->{view.scaleX = (this.childCount-i).toFloat()/(this.childCount/2)
view.scaleY== (this.childCount-i).toFloat()/(this.childCount/2) }
}
}
I am trying to get a parallax effect working. Such as in the sound cloud android app or something like this.
I have a RecyclerView where every list item has a FrameLayout and an ImageView in it and I need every background image in the RecyclerView to be parallaxed.
public class MyRecyclerView {
private static final Dictionary<Integer, Integer> listViewItemHeights = new Hashtable<Integer, Integer>();
...
}
... and in the onBindViewHolder method I have added this:
...
viewHolder.scrollView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnScrollChangedListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnScrollChangedListener() {
private int getScroll() {
View c = discountSectionLayoutManager.getChildAt(0);
int scrollY = -c.getTop();
listViewItemHeights.put(discountSectionLayoutManager.findFirstVisibleItemPosition(), c.getHeight());
for (int i = 0; i < discountSectionLayoutManager.findFirstVisibleItemPosition(); ++i) {
if (listViewItemHeights.get(i) != null)
scrollY += listViewItemHeights.get(i); //add all heights of the views that are gone
}
return scrollY;
}
#Override
public void onScrollChanged() {
int scrollY = - getScroll();
viewHolder.imageFrameLayout.setTranslationY(scrollY * 0.1f);
}
}
The problem with this is that EVERY item will scroll up, and not just the ones that are visible. My RecyclerView is large with many items, and the items at the bottom will be all scrolled up as well. (for example if I can see item 1-3 and scroll down, even items 4-15 will scroll right as now). Maybe the getScroll() method can be modified somehow to only only scroll the background of the visible items?
I'm looking for a way to scroll a RecyclerView to show the selected item on top.
In a ListView I was able to do that by using scrollTo(x,y) and getting the top of the element that need to be centered.
Something like:
#Override
public void onItemClick(View v, int pos){
mylistView.scrollTo(0, v.getTop());
}
The problem is that the RecyclerView returns an error when using it's scrollTo method saying
RecyclerView does not support scrolling to an absolute position
How can I scroll a RecyclerView to put the selected item at the top of the view?
If you are using the LinearLayoutManager or Staggered GridLayoutManager, they each have a scrollToPositionWithOffset method that takes both the position and also the offset of the start of the item from the start of the RecyclerView, which seems like it would accomplish what you need (setting the offset to 0 should align with the top).
For instance:
//Scroll item 2 to 20 pixels from the top
linearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(2, 20);
If you looking for vertical LinearLayout Manager you can achieve smooth scrolling using a custom LinearSmoothScroller:
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.PointF;
import android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager;
import android.support.v7.widget.LinearSmoothScroller;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
public class SnappingLinearLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager {
public SnappingLinearLayoutManager(Context context, int orientation, boolean reverseLayout) {
super(context, orientation, reverseLayout);
}
#Override
public void smoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView recyclerView, RecyclerView.State state,
int position) {
RecyclerView.SmoothScroller smoothScroller = new TopSnappedSmoothScroller(recyclerView.getContext());
smoothScroller.setTargetPosition(position);
startSmoothScroll(smoothScroller);
}
private class TopSnappedSmoothScroller extends LinearSmoothScroller {
public TopSnappedSmoothScroller(Context context) {
super(context);
}
#Override
public PointF computeScrollVectorForPosition(int targetPosition) {
return SnappingLinearLayoutManager.this
.computeScrollVectorForPosition(targetPosition);
}
#Override
protected int getVerticalSnapPreference() {
return SNAP_TO_START;
}
}
}
use an instance of the layoutmanager in recycle view and then calling recyclerView.smoothScrollToPosition(pos); will smooth scroll to selected position to top of the recycler view
//Scroll item pos
linearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(pos, 0);
You just need to call recyclerview.scrollToPosition(position). That's fine!
If you want to call it in adapter, just let your adapter has the instance of recyclerview or the activity or fragment which contains recyclerview,than implements the method getRecyclerview() in them.
I hope it can help you.
If you want to scroll automatic without show scroll motion then you need to write following code:
mRecyclerView.getLayoutManager().scrollToPosition(position);
If you want to display scroll motion then you need to add following code.
=>Step 1: You need to declare SmoothScroller.
RecyclerView.SmoothScroller smoothScroller = new
LinearSmoothScroller(this.getApplicationContext()) {
#Override
protected int getVerticalSnapPreference() {
return LinearSmoothScroller.SNAP_TO_START;
}
};
=>step 2: You need to add this code any event you want to perform scroll to specific position.
=>First you need to set target position to SmoothScroller.
smoothScroller.setTargetPosition(position);
=>Then you need to set SmoothScroller to LayoutManager.
mRecyclerView.getLayoutManager().startSmoothScroll(smoothScroller);
just call this method simply:
((LinearLayoutManager)recyclerView.getLayoutManager()).scrollToPositionWithOffset(yourItemPosition,0);
instead of:
recyclerView.scrollToPosition(yourItemPosition);
same with speed regulator
public class SmoothScrollLinearLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager {
private static final float MILLISECONDS_PER_INCH = 110f;
private Context mContext;
public SmoothScrollLinearLayoutManager(Context context,int orientation, boolean reverseLayout) {
super(context,orientation,reverseLayout);
mContext = context;
}
#Override
public void smoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView recyclerView, RecyclerView.State state,
int position) {
RecyclerView.SmoothScroller smoothScroller = new TopSnappedSmoothScroller(recyclerView.getContext()){
//This controls the direction in which smoothScroll looks for your view
#Override
public PointF computeScrollVectorForPosition(int targetPosition) {
return new PointF(0, 1);
}
//This returns the milliseconds it takes to scroll one pixel.
#Override
protected float calculateSpeedPerPixel(DisplayMetrics displayMetrics) {
return MILLISECONDS_PER_INCH / displayMetrics.densityDpi;
}
};
smoothScroller.setTargetPosition(position);
startSmoothScroll(smoothScroller);
}
private class TopSnappedSmoothScroller extends LinearSmoothScroller {
public TopSnappedSmoothScroller(Context context) {
super(context);
}
#Override
public PointF computeScrollVectorForPosition(int targetPosition) {
return SmoothScrollLinearLayoutManager.this
.computeScrollVectorForPosition(targetPosition);
}
#Override
protected int getVerticalSnapPreference() {
return SNAP_TO_START;
}
}
}
Try what worked for me cool!
Create a variable private static int displayedposition = 0;
Now for the position of your RecyclerView in your Activity.
myRecyclerView.setOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
}
#Override
public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
LinearLayoutManager llm = (LinearLayoutManager) myRecyclerView.getLayoutManager();
displayedposition = llm.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
}
});
Place this statement where you want it to place the former site displayed in your view .
LinearLayoutManager llm = (LinearLayoutManager) mRecyclerView.getLayoutManager();
llm.scrollToPositionWithOffset(displayedposition , youList.size());
Well that's it , it worked fine for me \o/
what i did to restore the scroll position after refreshing the RecyclerView on button clicked:
if (linearLayoutManager != null) {
index = linearLayoutManager.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
View v = linearLayoutManager.getChildAt(0);
top = (v == null) ? 0 : (v.getTop() - linearLayoutManager.getPaddingTop());
Log.d("TAG", "visible position " + " " + index);
}
else{
index = 0;
}
linearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext());
linearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(index, top);
getting the offset of the first visible item from the top before creating the linearLayoutManager object and after instantiating it the scrollToPositionWithOffset of the LinearLayoutManager object was called.
I don't know why I didn't find the best answer but its really simple.
recyclerView.smoothScrollToPosition(position);
No errors
Creates Animations
What i may add here is how to make it work together with DiffUtil and ListAdapter
You may note that calling recyclerView.scrollToPosition(pos) or (recyclerView.layoutManager as LinearLayoutManager).scrollToPositionWithOffset(pos, offset) wouldn't work if called straight after adapter.submitList. It is because the differ looks for changes in a background thread and then asynchronously notifies adapter about changes. On a SO i have seen several wrong answers with unnecessary delays & etc to solve this.
To handle the situation properly the submitList has a callback which is invoked when changes have been applied.
So the proper kotlin implementations in this case are:
//memorise target item here and a scroll offset if needed
adapter.submitList(items) {
val pos = /* here you may find a new position of the item or just use just a static position. It depends on your case */
recyclerView.scrollToPosition(pos)
}
//or
adapter.submitList(items) { recyclerView.smoothScrollToPosition(pos) }
//or etc
adapter.submitList(items) { (recyclerView.layoutManager as LinearLayoutManager).scrollToPositionWithOffset(pos, offset) }
Introduction
None of the answers explain how to show last item(s) at the top. So, the answers work only for items that still have enough items above or below them to fill the remaining RecyclerView. For instance, if there are 59 elements and a 56-th element is selected it should be at the top as in the picture below:
So, let's see how to implement this in the next paragraph.
Solution
We could handle those cases by using linearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(pos, 0) and additional logic in the Adapter of RecyclerView - by adding a custom margin below the last item (if the last item is not visible then it means there's enough space fill the RecyclerView). The custom margin could be a difference between the root view height and the item height. So, your Adapter for RecyclerView would look as follows:
...
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, final int position) {
...
int bottomHeight = 0;
int itemHeight = holder.itemView.getMeasuredHeight();
// if it's the last item then add a bottom margin that is enough to bring it to the top
if (position == mDataSet.length - 1) {
bottomHeight = Math.max(0, mRootView.getMeasuredHeight() - itemHeight);
}
RecyclerView.LayoutParams params = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams)holder.itemView.getLayoutParams();
params.setMargins(0, 0, params.rightMargin, bottomHeight);
holder.itemView.setLayoutParams(params);
...
}
...
If your LayoutManager is LinearLayoutManager you can use scrollToPositionWithOffset(position,0); on it and it will make your item the first visible item in the list. Otherwise, you can use smoothScrollToPosition on the RecyclerView directly.
I ended up using the below code.
RecyclerView.LayoutManager layoutManager = mainList.getLayoutManager();
if (layoutManager instanceof LinearLayoutManager) {
// Scroll to item and make it the first visible item of the list.
((LinearLayoutManager) layoutManager).scrollToPositionWithOffset(position, 0);
} else {
mainList.smoothScrollToPosition(position);
}
scroll at particular position
and this helped me alot.
by click listener you can get the position in your adapter
layoutmanager.scrollToPosition(int position);
In my case my RecyclerView have a padding top like this
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
...
android:paddingTop="100dp"
android:clipToPadding="false"
/>
Then for scroll a item to top, I need to
recyclerViewLinearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(position, -yourRecyclerView.getPaddingTop());
please note that if scrollToPosition not work notice that your RecyclerView was inside a NestedScrollView; refer to this post
This is pretty simple
recyclerView.scrollToPosition(position)
If you've Recycler view inside nestedscrollview :
val y = recyclerview.getChildAt(0).y
recyclerview.smoothScrollTo(0, y.toInt())
If your Recycler view is not inside nestedscrollview :
recyclerview.smoothScrollToPosition(index)
or
recyclerview.layoutManager?.smoothScrollToPosition(recyclerview, null ,index)
I use the code below to smooth-scroll an item (thisView) to the top.
It works also for GridLayoutManager with views of different heights:
View firstView = mRecyclerView.getChildAt(0);
int toY = firstView.getTop();
int firstPosition = mRecyclerView.getChildAdapterPosition(firstView);
View thisView = mRecyclerView.getChildAt(thisPosition - firstPosition);
int fromY = thisView.getTop();
mRecyclerView.smoothScrollBy(0, fromY - toY);
Seems to work good enough for a quick solution.
