GridView inside NestedScrollView

I'am trying to build an android application, I have a GridView inside a NestedScrollView,my problem was that the gridview is not showing all the elements,i resolved that problem with adding scroll to the grivView.but now i have another problem which is that when i scroll sometimes the nestedScrollView move and sometimes the gridView.

This solution work me.
public void setGridViewHeightBasedOnChildren(GridView gridView, int columns) {
ListAdapter listAdapter = gridView.getAdapter();
if (listAdapter == null) {
// pre-condition
return;
}
int totalHeight = 0;
int items = listAdapter.getCount();
int rows = 0;
View listItem = listAdapter.getView(0, null, gridView);
listItem.measure(0, 0);
totalHeight = listItem.getMeasuredHeight();
float x = 1;
if( items > columns ){
x = items/columns;
rows = (int) (x + 1);
totalHeight *= rows;
}
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = gridView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalHeight;
gridView.setLayoutParams(params);
}
After you have called setAdapter on your gridview, just call
setGridViewHeightBasedOnChildren(your girdview object, no of grid view columns)

Wrong total height of ListView when TextView hasn't got single line

I have got a small issue in my code... The problem is that I need to add height of each ListView item (cause I have got it in ScrollView and I don't want to have got double scroll places...).
This is my code which allows me to do that:
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();
totalHeight += listItem.getPaddingTop() + listItem.getPaddingBottom();
}
//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 I call this function here:
final ReceivedAttachementsListArrayAdapter adapter = new ReceivedAttachementsListArrayAdapter(getActivity(), attachements);
mReceivedAttachementsListView.setAdapter(adapter);
ViewHelper.getListViewSize(mReceivedAttachementsListView);
When my TextView is 1 line length or 3 line length, totalHeight of ListView items still gives me the same result.
Any idea to improve my method?

Textview text in multiline, Listview in Scrollview

I am using a listview in scrollview. I am able to show the list in listview in Scrollview using below method.
public static void setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(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));
}
There is a textview in listview and the textview's text is too long and it comes in 3 or 4 lines. In that case, the listview is not showing all items.

Stop scrolling at the end of gridview item

i put gridview inside scrollview using Helper class
public class Helper {
public static void getListViewSize(GridView 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.getHeight() * (myListAdapter.getCount() - 1));
myListView.setLayoutParams(params);
// print height of adapter on log
Log.e("height of listItem:", String.valueOf(totalHeight));
}
}
And use this class as
adapter = new RSSReaderGridAdapter(context, mostLatestItems);
gridView.setAdapter(adapter);
Helper.getListViewSize(gridView);
It works fine..but when i scroll page scrolling not stops at last item of gridview...it keep scrolling..

Maybe the ScrollView is scrolled . If want to scroll GridView,you should override "onInterceptTouchEvent".

android set listview height dynamically

i have ExpandableListview inside ScrollView and i know that's not good but i had too, the only solution to show the whole list is by set its height by code using layoutParams
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ListViewData.length());
this solution is good but i can't figure the right height that i should give in the Params, SO is there a way to know the actual size from the size of the array
Edit:
i came up with a solution that everytime i expand a group of the list am gonna change the height to fit with new geight

try this, Use Child based on listview. setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren() this will set your listview child based height
public class Utils {
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);
listView.requestLayout();
}
}

Your ListView is effectively unneeded in this case. You can as well loop over your adapter's items and just add them to a vertical LinearLayout inside your ScrollView.
In case you do not want to change a lot of code:
Replace ListView.setAdapter with
LinearLayout ll; //this should be the vertical LinearLayout that you substituted the listview with
for(int i=0;i<adapter.getCount();i++) {
View v = adapter.getView(position, null, null);
ll.addView(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
}
If you already use an OnItemClickListener add after View v = adapter.getView(position, null, null); the following
final int position = i;
v.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public onClick(View v) {
yourOnItemClickListener.onItemClick(null, v, position, 0);
}
});
In this case you do not have to worry about any miscalculation in the height.

Try this, it works for my same problem
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);
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 = listView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalItemsHeight + totalDividersHeight;
listView.setLayoutParams(params);
listView.requestLayout();
return true;
} else {
return false;
}}
requestLayout() method is called on the view because something has changed that invalidated its layout - forces redrawing.

you can set a variable in dimensions file for different screen sizes and then multiply it by the number of items of list you want to display.
