Actually I don't know how it properly called - overlay, parallax or slideUP, whatever, I have an Activity called "cafe details" which presents a Container(LinearLayout) with header information (name, min price, delivery time min e.t.c) and other container (ViewPager) which contains a ExpandableListView with something information (menus&dishes) and all I want to do is slide up my Viewpager when scrolls listview to scpecific Y position to cover(or overlay) header information.
A similar effect (but with parallax that I don't need to use) looks like this
I can detect when user scrolling listview down or up but how I can move container with ViewPager to overlay other container? Please give me ideas, regards.
UPD
I have tried a huge number of ways how to implement it and all of them unfortunately are not suitable. So now I have come to next variant - add scroll listener to ListView, calculate scrollY position of view and then based on that move the viewpager on y axis by calling setTranslationY();
Here is some code
1) ViewPager's fragment
mListView.setOnScrollListener(new AbsListView.OnScrollListener() {
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView absListView, int i) {
}
#Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView absListView, int i, int i1, int i2) {
if (getActivity() != null) {
((MainActivity) getActivity()).resizePagerContainer(absListView);
}
}
});
2) MainActivity
//object fields
int previousPos;
private float minTranslation;
private float minHeight;
<--------somewhere in onCreate
minTranslation = - (llVendorDescHeaders.getMeasuredHeight()+llVendorDescNote.getMeasuredHeight());
//llVendorDescHeaders is linearLayout with headers that should be hidden
//lVendorDescNote is a textView on green background;
minHeight = llVendorDescriptionPagerContainer.getMeasuredHeight();
//llVendorDescriptionPagerContainer is a container which contains ViewPager
--------->
public void resizePagerContainer(AbsListView absListView){
final int scrollY = getScrollY(absListView);
if (scrollY != previousPos) {
final float translationY = Math.max(-scrollY, minTranslation);
llVendorDescriptionPagerContainer.setTranslationY(translationY);
previousPos = scrollY;
}
}
private int getScrollY(AbsListView view) {
View child = view.getChildAt(0);
if (child == null) {
return 0;
}
int firstVisiblePosition = view.getFirstVisiblePosition();
int top = child.getTop();
return -top + firstVisiblePosition * child.getHeight() ;
}
This simple solution unfortunately has a problem - it is blinking and twitching (I don't know how to call it right) when scrolls slowly. So instead setTranslationY() I've used an objectAnimator:
public void resizePagerContainer(AbsListView absListView){
.............
ObjectAnimator moveAnim = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(llVendorDescriptionPagerContainer, "translationY", translationY);
moveAnim.start();
..............
}
I don't like this solution because 1) anyway it does resize viewpager with delay, not instantly 2) I don't think that is good idea to create many ObjectAnimator's objects every time when I scroll my listView.
Need your help and fresh ideas. Regards.
I'm assuming that you are scrolling the top header (the ImageView is a child of the header) based on the scrollY of the ListView/ScrollView, as shown below:
float translationY = Math.max(-scrollY, mMinHeaderTranslation);
mHeader.setTranslationY(translationY);
mTopImage.setTranslationY(-translationY / 3); // For parallax effect
If you want to stick the header/image to a certain dimension and continue the scrolling without moving it anymore, then you can change the value of mMinHeaderTranslation to achieve that effect.
//change this value to increase the dimension of header stuck on the top
int tabHeight = getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(R.dimen.tab_height);
mHeaderHeight = getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(R.dimen.header_height);
mMinHeaderTranslation = -mHeaderHeight + tabHeight;
The code snippets above are in reference to my demo but I think it's still general enough for you.
If you're interested you can check out my demo

Have you tried CoordinatorLayout from this new android's design support library? It looks like it's what you need. Check this video from 3:40 or this blog post.
I'm working on a Circular ViewPager, and i've implemented this exactly solution (https://stackoverflow.com/a/12965787/1083564).
The only thing is missing, is the fact that i need to smoothScroll when i'm using the setCurrentItem(int i, bol b) method, that instantly goes to the pixel limit, without using the smoothScroll.
I already have the access to use this method, using the following code:
package android.support.v4.view;
import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
public class MyViewPager extends ViewPager {
public MyViewPager(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public MyViewPager(Context context, AttributeSet attr) {
super(context, attr);
}
public void smoothScrollTo(int x, int y, int velocity) {
super.smoothScrollTo(x, y, velocity);
}
}
But i couldn't figure it out where and how to use it. I have the number of pixels that i need to run smoothly by using this code inside the setOnPageChangeListener on my ViewPager:
#Override
public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) {
Log.d( "viewpager", positionOffsetPixels+"");
}
Before it goes to 0, instantly, because of the setCurrentItem, i have the value of pixels left to reach 0 (to the left) or x (to the right, depending of screen). I dont know how can i get this x number too.
PS: I think this solution is the exatcly one used by IMDB app. You can see this scrolling from the first to the last but one, without remove your finger (use 2 fingers to do it). You will see that the "white limit" will show from the left side of the ViewPager. The only difference is that they know how to smooth scroll after using the setCurrentItem.
If you need some more information, please, ask! Thanks!
Issue: When you detect circular scrolling has to be perfomed, calling setCurrentItem immediately will cause the ViewPager to scroll to the real fragment immediately without smooth scrolling as it is set to false.
Solution: Instead allow the ViewPager to scroll to the fake fragment smoothly as it does for other fragments and then scroll to the real fragment after some delay with smooth scrolling set to false. User will not notice the change.
When we are performing circular scrolling, call setCurrentItem in a runnable with some delay. Use onPageSelected to know the index of the page selected.
public void onPageSelected(int position) {
// Consider eg. : C' A B C A'
boolean circularScroll = false;
if(position == 0) {
// Position 0 is C', we need to scroll to real C which is at index 3.
position = mPager.getAdapter().getCount() - 2;
circularScroll = true;
}
int lastIndex = mPager.getAdapter().getCount() - 1;
if(position == lastIndex) {
// Last index is A', we need to scroll to real A, which is at index 1.
position = 1;
circularScroll = true;
}
if(circularScroll) {
final int realPosition = position;
mPager.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
mPager.setCurrentItem(realPosition, false);
}
}, 500L);
}
}
When you set the second parameter of the setCurrentItem to true it should smooth scroll
#Override
public void onPageScrollStateChanged (int state) {
if (state == ViewPager.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE) {
int curr = viewPager.getCurrentItem();
int lastReal = viewPager.getAdapter().getCount() - 2;
if (curr == 0) {
viewPager.setCurrentItem(lastReal, true);
} else if (curr > lastReal) {
viewPager.setCurrentItem(1, true);
}
}
}
Sorry for the confusing title, I cannot express the problem very concisely...
I have an Android app with a ListView that uses a circular / "infinite" adapter, which basically means I can scroll it up or down as much as I want and the items will wrap around when it reaches the top or bottom, making it seem to the user as if he is spinning an infinitely long list of (~100) repeating items.
The point of this setup is to let the user select a random item, simply by spinning / flinging the listview and waiting to see where it stops. I decreased the friction of the Listview so it flings a bit faster and longer and this seems to work really nice. Finally I placed a partially transparent image on top of the ListView to block out the top and bottom items (with a transition from transparent to black), making it seem as if the user is "selecting" the item in the middle, as if they were on a rotating "wheel" that they control by flinging.
There is one obvious problem: after flinging the ListView does not stop at a particular item, but it can stop hovering between two items (where the first visible item is then only partially shown). I want to avoid this because in that case it is not obvious which item has been "randomly selected".
Long story short: after the ListView has finished scrolling after flinging, I want it to stop on a "whole" row, instead of on a partially visible row.
Right now I implemented this behavior by checking when the scrolling has stopped, and then selecting the first visible item, as such:
lv = this.getListView();
lv.setFriction(0.005f);
lv.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem, int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {}
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {
if (scrollState == OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE)
{
if (isAutoScrolling) return;
isAutoScrolling = true;
int pos = lv.getFirstVisiblePosition();
lv.setSelection(pos);
isAutoScrolling = false;
}
}
});
This works reasonably well, apart from one glaringly obvious problem... The first visible item might only be visible for a pixel or two. In that case, I want the ListView to jump "up" for those two pixels so that the second visible item is selected. Instead, of course, the first visible item is selected which means the ListView jumps "down" almost an entire row (minus those two pixels).
In short, instead of jumping to the first visible item, I want it to jump to the item that is visible the most. If the first visible item is less than half visible, I want it to jump to the second visible item.
Here's an illustration that hopefully conveys my point. The left most ListView (of each pair) shows the state after flinging has stopped (where it comes to a halt), and the right ListView shows how it looks after it made the "jump" by selecting the first visible item. On the left I show the current (wrong) situation: Item B is only barely visible, but it is still the first visible item so the listView jumps to select that item - which is not logical because it has to scroll almost an entire item height to get there. It would be much more logical to scroll to Item C (which is depicted on the right) because that is "closer".
(source: nickthissen.nl)
How can I achieve this behavior? The only way I can think of is to somehow measure how much of the first visible item is visible. If that is more than 50%, then I jump to that position. If it is less than 50%, I jump to that position + 1. However I have no clue how to measure that...
Any idea's?
You can get the visible dimensions of a child using the getChildVisibleRect method. When you have that, and you get the total height of the child, you can scroll to the appropriate child.
In the example below I check whether at least half of the child is visible:
View child = lv.getChildAt (0); // first visible child
Rect r = new Rect (0, 0, child.getWidth(), child.getHeight()); // set this initially, as required by the docs
double height = child.getHeight () * 1.0;
lv.getChildVisibleRect (child, r, null);
if (Math.abs (r.height ()) < height / 2.0) {
// show next child
}
else {
// show this child
}
Here's my final code inspired by Shade's answer.
I forgot to add "if(Math.abs(r.height())!=height)" at first. Then it just scrolls twice after it scroll to correct position because it's always greater than height/2 of childView.
Hope it helps.
listView.setOnScrollListener(new AbsListView.OnScrollListener(){
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view,int scrollState) {
if (scrollState == SCROLL_STATE_IDLE){
View child = listView.getChildAt (0); // first visible child
Rect r = new Rect (0, 0, child.getWidth(), child.getHeight()); // set this initially, as required by the docs
double height = child.getHeight () * 1.0;
listView.getChildVisibleRect (child, r, null);
if(Math.abs(r.height())!=height){//only smooth scroll when not scroll to correct position
if (Math.abs (r.height ()) < height / 2.0) {
listView.smoothScrollToPosition(listView.getLastVisiblePosition());
}
else if(Math.abs (r.height ()) > height / 2.0){
listView.smoothScrollToPosition(listView.getFirstVisiblePosition());
}
else{
listView.smoothScrollToPosition(listView.getFirstVisiblePosition());
}
}
}
}
#Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem,int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
}});
Follow these 3 steps, then you can get exactly what you want!!!!
1.Initialize the two variable for scrolling up and down:
int scrollingUp=0,scrollingDown=0;
2.Then increment the value of the variable based on scrolling:
#Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem,
int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
if(mLastFirstVisibleItem<firstVisibleItem)
{
scrollingDown=1;
}
if(mLastFirstVisibleItem>firstVisibleItem)
{
scrollingUp=1;
}
mLastFirstVisibleItem=firstVisibleItem;
}
3.Then do the changes in the onScrollStateChanged():
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {
switch (scrollState) {
case SCROLL_STATE_IDLE:
if(scrollingUp==1)
{
mainListView.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
View child = mainListView.getChildAt (0); // first visible child
Rect r = new Rect (0, 0, child.getWidth(), child.getHeight()); // set this initially, as required by the docs
double height = child.getHeight () * 1.0;
mainListView.getChildVisibleRect (child, r, null);
int dpDistance=Math.abs (r.height());
double minusDistance=dpDistance-height;
if (Math.abs (r.height()) < height/2)
{
mainListView.smoothScrollBy(dpDistance, 1500);
}
else
{
mainListView.smoothScrollBy((int)minusDistance, 1500);
}
scrollingUp=0;
}
});
}
if(scrollingDown==1)
{
mainListView.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
View child = mainListView.getChildAt (0); // first visible child
Rect r = new Rect (0, 0, child.getWidth(), child.getHeight()); // set this initially, as required by the docs
double height = child.getHeight () * 1.0;
mainListView.getChildVisibleRect (child, r, null);
int dpDistance=Math.abs (r.height());
double minusDistance=dpDistance-height;
if (Math.abs (r.height()) < height/2)
{
mainListView.smoothScrollBy(dpDistance, 1500);
}
else
{
mainListView.smoothScrollBy((int)minusDistance, 1500);
}
scrollingDown=0;
}
});
}
break;
case SCROLL_STATE_TOUCH_SCROLL:
break;
}
}
You probably solved this problem but I think that this solution should work
if (scrollState == OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE) {
View firstChild = lv.getChildAt(0);
int pos = lv.getFirstVisiblePosition();
//if first visible item is higher than the half of its height
if (-firstChild.getTop() > firstChild.getHeight()/2) {
pos++;
}
lv.setSelection(pos);
}
getTop() for first item view always return nonpositive value so I don't use Math.abs(firstChild.getTop()) but just -firstChild.getTop(). Even if this value will be >0 then this condition is still working.
If you want to make this smoother then you can try to use lv.smoothScrollToPosition(pos) and enclose all above piece of code in
if (scrollState == OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE) {
post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
//put above code here
//and change lv.setSelection(pos) to lv.smoothScrollToPosition(pos)
}
});
}
Once you know the first visible position, you should be able to use View.getLocationinWindow() or View.getLocationOnScreen() on the next position's view to get the visible height of the first. Compare that to the View's height, and scroll to the next position if appropriate.
You may need to tweak it to account for padding, depending on what your rows look like.
I haven't tried the above, but it seems like it should work. If it doesn't, here's another, probably less robust idea:
getLastVisiblePosition(). If you take the difference between last and first, you can see how many positions are visible on the screen. Compare that to how many positions were visible when the list was first populated(scroll position 0).
If the same number of positions are visible, simply scroll to the first visible position as you are doing. If there is one more visible, scroll to "first + 1" position.
If you can get the position of the row that needs to be scrolled to, you can use the method:
smoothScrollToPosition
So something like:
int pos = lv.getFirstVisiblePosition();
lv.smoothScrollToPosition(pos);
Edit
Try this, sorry I don't have time to test, I'm out and about.
ImageView iv = //Code to find the image view
Rect rect = new Rect(iv.getLeft(), iv.getTop(), iv.getRight(), iv.getBottom());
lv.requestChildRectangleOnScreen(lv, rect, false);
My Solution:
#Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem, int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount)
{
if (swipeLayout.isRefreshing()) {
swipeLayout.setRefreshing(false);
} else {
int pos = firstVisibleItem;
if (pos == 0 && lv_post_list.getAdapter().getCount()>0) {
int topOfNext = lv_post_list.getChildAt(pos + 1).getTop();
int heightOfFirst = lv_post_list.getChildAt(pos).getHeight();
if (topOfNext > heightOfFirst) {
swipeLayout.setEnabled(true);
} else {
swipeLayout.setEnabled(false);
}
}
else
swipeLayout.setEnabled(false);

I have a very long activity with a scrollview. It is a form with various fields that the user must fill in. I have a checkbox half way down my form, and when the user checks it I want to scroll to a specific part of the view. Is there any way to scroll to an EditText object (or any other view object) programmatically?
Also, I know this is possible using X and Y coords but I want to avoid doing this as the form may changed from user to user.
private final void focusOnView(){
yourScrollView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
yourScrollView.scrollTo(0, yourEditText.getBottom());
}
});
}
The answer of Sherif elKhatib can be greatly improved, if you want to scroll the view to the center of the scroll view. This reusable method smooth scrolls the view to the visible center of a HorizontalScrollView.
private final void focusOnView(final HorizontalScrollView scroll, final View view) {
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int vLeft = view.getLeft();
int vRight = view.getRight();
int sWidth = scroll.getWidth();
scroll.smoothScrollTo(((vLeft + vRight - sWidth) / 2), 0);
}
});
}
For a vertical ScrollView use
...
int vTop = view.getTop();
int vBottom = view.getBottom();
int sHeight = scroll.getBottom();
scroll.smoothScrollTo(0, ((vTop + vBottom - sHeight) / 2));
...
This works well for me :
targetView.getParent().requestChildFocus(targetView,targetView);
public void RequestChildFocus (View child, View focused)
child - The child of this ViewParent that wants focus. This view will contain the focused view. It is not necessarily the view that actually has focus.
focused - The view that is a descendant of child that actually has focus
In my opinion the best way to scroll to a given rectangle is via View.requestRectangleOnScreen(Rect, Boolean). You should call it on a View you want to scroll to and pass a local rectangle you want to be visible on the screen. The second parameter should be false for smooth scrolling and true for immediate scrolling.
final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, view.getWidth(), view.getHeight());
view.requestRectangleOnScreen(rect, false);
I made a small utility method based on Answer from WarrenFaith, this code also takes in account if that view is already visible in the scrollview, no need for scroll.
public static void scrollToView(final ScrollView scrollView, final View view) {
// View needs a focus
view.requestFocus();
// Determine if scroll needs to happen
final Rect scrollBounds = new Rect();
scrollView.getHitRect(scrollBounds);
if (!view.getLocalVisibleRect(scrollBounds)) {
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, view.getBottom());
}
});
}
}
You should make your TextView request focus:
mTextView.requestFocus();
Another varition would be:
scrollView.postDelayed(new Runnable()
{
#Override
public void run()
{
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, img_transparent.getTop());
}
}, 200);
or you can use the post() method.
My EditText was nested several layers inside my ScrollView, which itself isn't the layout's root view. Because getTop() and getBottom() were seeming to report the coordinates within it's containing view, I had it compute the distance from the top of the ScrollView to the top of the EditText by iterating through the parents of the EditText.
// Scroll the view so that the touched editText is near the top of the scroll view
new Thread(new Runnable()
{
#Override
public
void run ()
{
// Make it feel like a two step process
Utils.sleep(333);
// Determine where to set the scroll-to to by measuring the distance from the top of the scroll view
// to the control to focus on by summing the "top" position of each view in the hierarchy.
int yDistanceToControlsView = 0;
View parentView = (View) m_editTextControl.getParent();
while (true)
{
if (parentView.equals(scrollView))
{
break;
}
yDistanceToControlsView += parentView.getTop();
parentView = (View) parentView.getParent();
}
// Compute the final position value for the top and bottom of the control in the scroll view.
final int topInScrollView = yDistanceToControlsView + m_editTextControl.getTop();
final int bottomInScrollView = yDistanceToControlsView + m_editTextControl.getBottom();
// Post the scroll action to happen on the scrollView with the UI thread.
scrollView.post(new Runnable()
{
#Override
public void run()
{
int height =m_editTextControl.getHeight();
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, ((topInScrollView + bottomInScrollView) / 2) - height);
m_editTextControl.requestFocus();
}
});
}
}).start();
The above answers will work fine if the ScrollView is the direct parent of the ChildView. If your ChildView is being wrapped in another ViewGroup in the ScrollView, it will cause unexpected behavior because the View.getTop() get the position relative to its parent. In such case, you need to implement this:
public static void scrollToInvalidInputView(ScrollView scrollView, View view) {
int vTop = view.getTop();
while (!(view.getParent() instanceof ScrollView)) {
view = (View) view.getParent();
vTop += view.getTop();
}
final int scrollPosition = vTop;
new Handler().post(() -> scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, scrollPosition));
}
I know this may be too late for a better answer but a desired perfect solution must be a system like positioner. I mean, when system makes a positioning for an Editor field it places the field just up to the keyboard, so as UI/UX rules it is perfect.
What below code makes is the Android way positioning smoothly. First of all we keep the current scroll point as a reference point. Second thing is to find the best positioning scroll point for an editor, to do this we scroll to top, and then request the editor fields to make the ScrollView component to do the best positioning. Gatcha! We've learned the best position. Now, what we'll do is scroll smoothly from the previous point to the point we've found newly. If you want you may omit smooth scrolling by using scrollTo instead of smoothScrollTo only.
NOTE: The main container ScrollView is a member field named scrollViewSignup, because my example was a signup screen, as you may figure out a lot.
view.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(final View view, boolean b) {
if (b) {
scrollViewSignup.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int scrollY = scrollViewSignup.getScrollY();
scrollViewSignup.scrollTo(0, 0);
final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, view.getWidth(), view.getHeight());
view.requestRectangleOnScreen(rect, true);
int new_scrollY = scrollViewSignup.getScrollY();
scrollViewSignup.scrollTo(0, scrollY);
scrollViewSignup.smoothScrollTo(0, new_scrollY);
}
});
}
}
});
If you want to use this block for all EditText instances, and quickly integrate it with your screen code. You can simply make a traverser like below. To do this, I've made the main OnFocusChangeListener a member field named focusChangeListenerToScrollEditor, and call it during onCreate as below.
traverseEditTextChildren(scrollViewSignup, focusChangeListenerToScrollEditor);
And the method implementation is as below.
private void traverseEditTextChildren(ViewGroup viewGroup, View.OnFocusChangeListener focusChangeListenerToScrollEditor) {
int childCount = viewGroup.getChildCount();
for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
View view = viewGroup.getChildAt(i);
if (view instanceof EditText)
{
((EditText) view).setOnFocusChangeListener(focusChangeListenerToScrollEditor);
}
else if (view instanceof ViewGroup)
{
traverseEditTextChildren((ViewGroup) view, focusChangeListenerToScrollEditor);
}
}
}
So, what we've done here is making all EditText instance children to call the listener at focus.
To reach this solution, I've checked it out all the solutions here, and generated a new solution for better UI/UX result.
Many thanks to all other answers inspiring me much.
yourScrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, yourEditText.getTop());
Just Do It ;)
scrollView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, myTextView.getTop());
}
});
Answering from my practical project.
I think I have found more elegant and less error prone solution using
ScrollView.requestChildRectangleOnScreen
There is no math involved, and contrary to other proposed solutions, it will handle correctly scrolling both up and down.
/**
* Will scroll the {#code scrollView} to make {#code viewToScroll} visible
*
* #param scrollView parent of {#code scrollableContent}
* #param scrollableContent a child of {#code scrollView} whitch holds the scrollable content (fills the viewport).
* #param viewToScroll a child of {#code scrollableContent} to whitch will scroll the the {#code scrollView}
*/
void scrollToView(ScrollView scrollView, ViewGroup scrollableContent, View viewToScroll) {
Rect viewToScrollRect = new Rect(); //coordinates to scroll to
viewToScroll.getHitRect(viewToScrollRect); //fills viewToScrollRect with coordinates of viewToScroll relative to its parent (LinearLayout)
scrollView.requestChildRectangleOnScreen(scrollableContent, viewToScrollRect, false); //ScrollView will make sure, the given viewToScrollRect is visible
}
It is a good idea to wrap it into postDelayed to make it more reliable, in case the ScrollView is being changed at the moment
/**

Following worked far better.
mObservableScrollView.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
mObservableScrollView.fullScroll([View_FOCUS][1]);
}
});
Examining Android source code, you can find that there already is a member function of ScrollView– scrollToChild(View) – that does exactly what is requested. Unfortunatelly, this function is for some obscure reason marked private. Based on that function I've written following function that finds the first ScrollView above the View specified as a parameter and scrolls it so that it becomes visible within the ScrollView:
private void make_visible(View view)
{
int vt = view.getTop();
int vb = view.getBottom();
View v = view;
for(;;)
{
ViewParent vp = v.getParent();
if(vp == null || !(vp instanceof ViewGroup))
break;
ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup)vp;
if(parent instanceof ScrollView)
{
ScrollView sv = (ScrollView)parent;
// Code based on ScrollView.computeScrollDeltaToGetChildRectOnScreen(Rect rect) (Android v5.1.1):
int height = sv.getHeight();
int screenTop = sv.getScrollY();
int screenBottom = screenTop + height;
int fadingEdge = sv.getVerticalFadingEdgeLength();
// leave room for top fading edge as long as rect isn't at very top
if(vt > 0)
screenTop += fadingEdge;
// leave room for bottom fading edge as long as rect isn't at very bottom
if(vb < sv.getChildAt(0).getHeight())
screenBottom -= fadingEdge;
int scrollYDelta = 0;
if(vb > screenBottom && vt > screenTop)
{
// need to move down to get it in view: move down just enough so
// that the entire rectangle is in view (or at least the first
// screen size chunk).
if(vb-vt > height) // just enough to get screen size chunk on
scrollYDelta += (vt - screenTop);
else // get entire rect at bottom of screen
scrollYDelta += (vb - screenBottom);
// make sure we aren't scrolling beyond the end of our content
int bottom = sv.getChildAt(0).getBottom();
int distanceToBottom = bottom - screenBottom;
scrollYDelta = Math.min(scrollYDelta, distanceToBottom);
}
else if(vt < screenTop && vb < screenBottom)
{
// need to move up to get it in view: move up just enough so that
// entire rectangle is in view (or at least the first screen
// size chunk of it).
if(vb-vt > height) // screen size chunk
scrollYDelta -= (screenBottom - vb);
else // entire rect at top
scrollYDelta -= (screenTop - vt);
// make sure we aren't scrolling any further than the top our content
scrollYDelta = Math.max(scrollYDelta, -sv.getScrollY());
}
sv.smoothScrollBy(0, scrollYDelta);
break;
}
// Transform coordinates to parent:
int dy = parent.getTop()-parent.getScrollY();
vt += dy;
vb += dy;
v = parent;
}
}
My solution is:
int[] spinnerLocation = {0,0};
spinner.getLocationOnScreen(spinnerLocation);
int[] scrollLocation = {0, 0};
scrollView.getLocationInWindow(scrollLocation);
int y = scrollView.getScrollY();
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, y + spinnerLocation[1] - scrollLocation[1]);
Vertical scroll, good for forms. Answer is based on Ahmadalibaloch horizontal scroll.
private final void focusOnView(final HorizontalScrollView scroll, final View view) {
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int top = view.getTop();
int bottom = view.getBottom();
int sHeight = scroll.getHeight();
scroll.smoothScrollTo(0, ((top + bottom - sHeight) / 2));
}
});
}
You can use ObjectAnimator like this:
ObjectAnimator.ofInt(yourScrollView, "scrollY", yourView.getTop()).setDuration(1500).start();
Add postDelayed to the view so that getTop() does not return 0.
binding.scrollViewLogin.postDelayed({
val scrollTo = binding.textInputLayoutFirstName.top
binding.scrollViewLogin.isSmoothScrollingEnabled = true
binding.scrollViewLogin.smoothScrollTo(0, scrollTo)
}, 400
)
Also make sure the view is a direct child of scrollView, otherwise you would get getTop() as zero. Example: getTop() of edittext which is embedded inside TextInputLayout would return 0. So in this case, we have to compute getTop() of TextInputLayout which is a direct child of ScrollView.
<ScrollView>
<TextInputLayout>
<EditText/>
</TextInputLayout>
</ScrollView>
In my case, that's not EditText, that's googleMap.
And it works successfully like this.
private final void focusCenterOnView(final ScrollView scroll, final View view) {
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int centreX=(int) (view.getX() + view.getWidth() / 2);
int centreY= (int) (view.getY() + view.getHeight() / 2);
scrollView.smoothScrollBy(centreX, centreY);
}
});
}
Que:Is there a way to programmatically scroll a scroll view to a specific edittext?
Ans:Nested scroll view in recyclerview last position added record data.
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
nested_scroll.setScrollY(more Detail Recycler.getBottom());
Is there a way to programmatically scroll a scroll view to a specific edit text?
The following is what I'm using:
int amountToScroll = viewToShow.getBottom() - scrollView.getHeight() + ((LinearLayout.LayoutParams) viewToShow.getLayoutParams()).bottomMargin;
// Check to see if scrolling is necessary to show the view
if (amountToScroll > 0){
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, amountToScroll);
}
This gets the scroll amount necessary to show the bottom of the view, including any margin on the bottom of that view.
Based on Sherif's answer, the following worked best for my use case. Notable changes are getTop() instead of getBottom() and smoothScrollTo() instead of scrollTo().
private void scrollToView(final View view){
final ScrollView scrollView = findViewById(R.id.bookmarksScrollView);
if(scrollView == null) return;
scrollView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, view.getTop());
}
});
}
If you want to scroll to a view when a soft keyboard is opened, then it might get a bit tricky.
The best solution I've got so far is to use a combination of inset callbacks and requestRectangleOnScreen method.
First, you need to setup inset callbacks:
fun View.doOnApplyWindowInsetsInRoot(block: (View, WindowInsetsCompat, Rect) -> Unit) {
val initialPadding = recordInitialPaddingForView(this)
val root = getRootForView(this)
ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(root) { v, insets ->
block(v, insets, initialPadding)
insets
}
requestApplyInsetsWhenAttached()
}
fun View.requestApplyInsetsWhenAttached() {
if (isAttachedToWindow) {
requestApplyInsets()
} else {
addOnAttachStateChangeListener(object : View.OnAttachStateChangeListener {
override fun onViewAttachedToWindow(v: View) {
v.removeOnAttachStateChangeListener(this)
v.requestApplyInsets()
}
override fun onViewDetachedFromWindow(v: View) = Unit
})
}
}
We are setting a callback on a root view to make sure we get called. Insets could be consumed before our view in question received them, so we have to do additional work here.
Now it's almost easy:
doOnApplyWindowInsetsInRoot { _, _, _ ->
post {
if (viewInQuestion.hasFocus()) {
requestRectangleOnScreen(Rect(0, 0, width, height))
}
}
}
You can get rid of a focus check. It's there to limit number of calls to requestRectangleOnScreen. I use post to run an action after scrollable parent scheduled scroll to a focused view.
If anybody is looking for a Kotlin version you can do this with an extension function
fun ScrollView.scrollToChild(view: View, onScrolled: (() -> Unit)? = null) {
view.requestFocus()
val scrollBounds = Rect()
getHitRect(scrollBounds)
if (!view.getLocalVisibleRect(scrollBounds)) {
findViewTreeLifecycleOwner()?.lifecycleScope?.launch(Dispatchers.Main) {
smoothScrollTo(0, view.bottom - 40)
onScrolled?.invoke()
}
}
}
There is a little callback that lets you do something after the scroll.
If scrlMain is your NestedScrollView, then use the following:
scrlMain.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
scrlMain.fullScroll(View.FOCUS_UP);
}
});
here is another better version for efficient scrolling:
kotlin code to scroll to particular position of view added in scrollview(horizontal)
horizontalScrollView.post {
val targetView = findViewById<View>(R.id.target_view)
val targetX = targetView.left
horizontalScrollView.smoothScrollTo(targetX, 0)
}
for vertical scroll just change targetView.left to targetView.top
for JAVA here is a sample code:
scrollView.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int targetViewY = targetView.getTop();
scrollView.smoothScrollTo(0, targetViewY);
}
}, 500);
I'm creating a list of pictures using a ListView and the photos are of a size that would fit 2 to 3 photos on the screen.
The problem that I'm having is that I would like to when the user stops scrolling that the first item of the visible list would snap to the top of screen, for example, if the scroll ends and small part of the first picture displayed, we scroll the list down so the picture is always fully displayed, if mostly of the picture is displayed, we scroll the list up so the next picture is fully visible.
Is there a way to achieve this in android with the listview?
I've found a way to do this just listening to scroll and change the position when the scroll ended by implementing ListView.OnScrollListener
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {
switch (scrollState) {
case OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE:
if (scrolling){
// get first visible item
View itemView = view.getChildAt(0);
int top = Math.abs(itemView.getTop()); // top is a negative value
int bottom = Math.abs(itemView.getBottom());
if (top >= bottom){
((ListView)view).setSelectionFromTop(view.getFirstVisiblePosition()+1, 0);
} else {
((ListView)view).setSelectionFromTop(view.getFirstVisiblePosition(), 0);
}
}
scrolling = false;
break;
case OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_TOUCH_SCROLL:
case OnScrollListener.SCROLL_STATE_FLING:
Log.i("TEST", "SCROLLING");
scrolling = true;
break;
}
}
The change is not so smooth but it works.
Utilizing a couple ideas from #nininho's solution, I got my listview to snap to the item with a smooth scroll instead of abruptly going to it. One caveat is that I've only tested this solution on a Moto X in a basic ListView with text, but it works very well on the device. Nevertheless, I'm confident about this solution, and encourage you to provide feedback.
listview.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
#Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (scrollState == SCROLL_STATE_IDLE) {
View itemView = view.getChildAt(0);
int top = Math.abs(itemView.getTop());
int bottom = Math.abs(itemView.getBottom());
int scrollBy = top >= bottom ? bottom : -top;
if (scrollBy == 0) {
return;
}
smoothScrollDeferred(scrollBy, (ListView)view);
}
}
private void smoothScrollDeferred(final int scrollByF,
final ListView viewF) {
final Handler h = new Handler();
h.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
viewF.smoothScrollBy(scrollByF, 200);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem,
int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
The reason I defer the smooth scrolling is because in my testing, directly calling the smoothScrollBy method in the state changed callback had problems actually scrolling. Also, I don't foresee a fully-tested, robust solution holding very much state, and in my solution below, I hold no state at all. This solution is not yet in the Google Play Store, but should serve as a good starting point.
Using #nininho 's solution,
In the onScrollStateChanged when the state changes to SCROLL_STATE_IDLE, remember the position to snap and raise a flag:
snapTo = view.getFirstVisiblePosition();
shouldSnap = true;
Then, override the computeScroll() method:
#Override
public void computeScroll() {
super.computeScroll();
if(shouldSnap){
this.smoothScrollToPositionFromTop(snapTo, 0);
shouldSnap = false;
}
}
You can do a much more smooth scrolling if you use RecyclerView. The OnScrollListener is way better.
I have made an example here: https://github.com/plattysoft/SnappingList
Well.. I know 10 years have past since this question was asked, but now we can use LinearSnapHelper:
new LinearSnapHelper().attachToRecyclerView(recyclerView);
Source:
https://proandroiddev.com/android-recyclerview-snaphelper-19eaa9598da6
Apart from trying the code above one thing you should make sure of is that your listView have a height that can fit exact number of items you want to be displayed.
e.g
If you want 4 items to be displayed after snap effect and your row height (defined in its layout) should be 1/4 of the total height of the list.
Note that after the smoothScrollBy() call, getFirstVisiblePosition() may point to the list item ABOVE the topmost one in the listview. This is especially true when view.getChildAt(0).getBottom() == 0. I had to call view.setSelection(view.getFirstVisiblePosition() + 1) to remedy this odd behavior.
