I've got a RecyclerView and would like to have scrollbar showing, when it covers more than one page.
I get no scrollbar at all. Any idea?
My layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/cl_only_empty"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:elevation="5dp"
android:text="#string/cl_only_empty"
android:textColor="#color/white" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/callsList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scrollbars="vertical" />
</LinearLayout>
The solution is to set the vertical (or horizontal) scrollbar in the xml layout:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scrollbars="vertical" />
Use android:scrollbars attribute "vertical" and android:scrollbarThumbVertical attribute to set the color and android:scrollbarSize attribute to specifiy size:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/document_listview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="3dp"
android:layout_marginTop="3dp"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:scrollbarThumbVertical="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:scrollbarSize="5dp"
android:background="#color/activity_bg"
android:dividerHeight="4dp" />
use recyclerView as below in xml layout
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:fadeScrollbars="true"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
and add below code for scrollview in java, it will be okay
RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity(), LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL, false));
recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
I had the same problem on my old HTC Desire X (api 16) only.
I don't know why, but scollbars of RecyclerView doesn't work properly on this device if the android:background property is not set. Try to set it to any color or to transparent - it works for me, hope it helps you too
You can use from :
setScrollbarFadingEnabled(boolean)
Scrollbar Link
Scroller can be set to recyclerview on multiple ways.
1st you can simply add scrollbar in xml and set its property android:fadeScrollbars="false" to always show it.
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerViewMachine"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:fadeScrollbars="false"
android:scrollbarThumbVertical="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:scrollbarSize="5dp"
android:scrollbarStyle="outsideOverlay"/>
Or you can make a style theme and use it programitically when initializing recyclerview
<style name="ScrollbarRecyclerView" parent="android:Widget">
<item name="android:scrollbars">vertical</item>
</style>
RecyclerView recyclerView = new RecyclerView(new ContextThemeWrapper(context, R.style.ScrollbarRecyclerView));
thanks
Besides the android:scrollbars attribute, you should add android:fadeScrollbars attribute in false state like this:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:fadeScrollbars="false"/>
This way, the vertical scrollbar is always showing when it's using more height of the layout permitted.
Try this:
mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager (this);
mLayoutManager.setSmoothScrollbarEnabled (true);
If you are fine to set ScrollBar programmatically, then you can use ContextThemeWrapper. First you need to define styling in Style.xml file:
<style name="ScrollbarRecyclerView" parent="android:Widget">
<item name="android:scrollbars">vertical</item>
</style>
And then apply styling when you initialize your RecylerView:
RecyclerView recyclerView = new RecyclerView(new ContextThemeWrapper(context, R.style.ScrollbarRecyclerView));
Add the code to Recycler view xml to make scroll bar visible.
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fadeScrollbars="false"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:scrollbarSize="#dimen/_2sdp"
android:scrollbarThumbVertical="#color/white"/>
Actually, it's because of the theme. The scrollbars are there but can't be seen because they blend with the color on the parent view or some other view in the line of its ancestors.
You can create a drawable shape and give it the color you want then set that as the vertical or horizontal scrollbar drawable. That is, if you do not want to mess around with your theme colors.
Using xml android:fadeScrollbars="false"
Using java ScrollView.setScrollbarFadingEnabled(false);

For my app I am using a RecyclerView inside a ScrollView where the RecyclerView has a height based on its content using this library. Scrolling is working but it's not working smoothly when I scroll over the RecyclerView. When I scroll over the ScrollView itself it is scrolling smoothly.
The code I am using to define the RecyclerView:
LinearLayoutManager friendsLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL, false);
mFriendsListView.setLayoutManager(friendsLayoutManager);
mFriendsListView.addItemDecoration(new DividerItemDecoration(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), null));
The RecyclerView in the ScrollView:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:id="#+id/friendsList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
Try doing:
RecyclerView v = (RecyclerView) findViewById(...);
v.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
As an alternative, you can modify your layout using the support design library. I guess your current layout is something like:
<ScrollView >
<LinearLayout >
<View > <!-- upper content -->
<RecyclerView > <!-- with custom layoutmanager -->
</LinearLayout >
</ScrollView >
You can modify that to:
<CoordinatorLayout >
<AppBarLayout >
<CollapsingToolbarLayout >
<!-- with your content, and layout_scrollFlags="scroll" -->
</CollapsingToolbarLayout >
</AppBarLayout >
<RecyclerView > <!-- with standard layoutManager -->
</CoordinatorLayout >
However this is a longer road to take, and if you are OK with the custom linear layout manager, then just disable nested scrolling on the recycler view.
Edit (4/3/2016)
The v 23.2 release of the support libraries now includes a factory “wrap content” feature in all default LayoutManagers. I didn’t test it, but you should probably prefer it to that library you were using.
<ScrollView >
<LinearLayout >
<View > <!-- upper content -->
<RecyclerView > <!-- with wrap_content -->
</LinearLayout >
</ScrollView >
I only needed to use this:
mMyRecyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
in my onCreateView() method.
Thanks a lot!
You can use this way either :
Add this line to your recyclerView xml file :
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
Or in java code :
RecyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
Hope this helped .
You can try with both the ways with XML and programmatically. But the issue you may face is (below API 21) by doing it with XML will not work . So it's better to set it programmatically in your Activity / Fragment.
XML code:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recycleView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:visibility="gone"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/linearLayoutBottomText" />
Programmatically:
recycleView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recycleView);
recycleView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
Using Nested Scroll View instead of Scroll View solved my problem
<LinearLayout> <!--Main Layout -->
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
<LinearLayout > <!--Nested Scoll View enclosing Layout -->`
<View > <!-- upper content -->
<RecyclerView >
</LinearLayout >
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
</LinearLayout>
I had similar issues (I tried to create a nested RecyclerViews something like Google PlayStore design). The best way to deal with this is by subclassing the child RecyclerViews and overriding the 'onInterceptTouchEvent' and 'onTouchEvent' methods. This way you get complete control of how those events behave and eventually scrolling.
Replacing ScrollView with NestedScrollView resulted into smooth scrolling to the bottom.
Summary of all answers (Advantages & Disadvantages)
For single recyclerview
you can use it inside Coordinator layout.
Advantage - it will not load entire recyclerview items. So smooth loading.
Disadvantage - you can't load two recyclerview inside Coordinator layout - it produce scrolling problems
reference - https://stackoverflow.com/a/33143512/3879847
For multiple recylerview with minimum rows
you can load inside NestedScrollView
Advantage - it will scroll smoothly
Disadvantage - It load all rows of recyclerview so your activity open with delay
reference - https://stackoverflow.com/a/33143512/3879847
For multiple recylerview with large rows(more than 100)
You must go with recyclerview.
Advantage - Scroll smoothly, load smoothly
Disadvantage - You need to write more code and logic
Load each recylerview inside main recyclerview with help of multi-viewholders
ex:
MainRecyclerview
-ChildRecyclerview1 (ViewHolder1)
-ChildRecyclerview2 (ViewHolder2)
-ChildRecyclerview3 (ViewHolder3)
-Any other layout (ViewHolder4)
Reference for multi-viewHolder - https://stackoverflow.com/a/26245463/3879847
Kotlin
Set isNestedScrollingEnabled to false for every RecyclerView that is under the scrolling view
val recyclerView = findViewById<RecyclerView>(R.id.recyclerView)
recyclerView.isNestedScrollingEnabled = false
Using XML Layout
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:id="#+id/friendsList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
Every answer is same here. and i already used what everyone is suggested. Then i found that NestedScrollView is faster then ScrollView so
use
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
Instead of
<ScrollView
And use this as usual
recycleView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
If you are using VideoView or heavy weight widgets in your childviews keep your RecyclerView with height wrap_content
inside a NestedScrollView with height match_parent
Then scrolling will work smooth as perfectly as you want it.
FYI,
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clipToPadding="false" />
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
Thanks Micro this was from your hint!
karthik
you can use ScrollView as a parent and NestedScrollView as a child.
like this:-
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/CL1">
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/eventRV"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/CL1" />
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
XML code:
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clipToPadding="false" />
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
in java code :
recycleView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recycleView);
recycleView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
Or you can just set android:focusableInTouchMode="true" in your recycler view

This code is working for in ConstraintLayout android
Simple Add this line into your JAVA class
list.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
I myself had this issue, there is a recycler view within a scrollview and the scroll doesn't seem to be smooth. The cause for my issue was having the scrollview on top of the recycler view which was not needed for my requirement. So after I removed the scrollview and added the android:scrollbars="vertical" for recycler view, the scrolling was smooth.
After 3 days of research, I solved smooth scroll issue in my project.
The problem is <layer-list> drawable set in the background of item_user.xml file so it takes GPU time for rendering that's why scrolling not smooth. So please dont use complex <layer-list> drawable in the background of adapter item.
My problem is solved by above solution, below option is not useful for me
setNestedScrollingEnabled
setHasFixedSize
setItemViewCacheSize
I wrote an application and home page is LinearLayout and is in Fragment. In this LinearLayout there are two RecyclerViews and SearchBar etc. I want to scroll whole activity. I spent 2 days for it but cannot succeed. How can I do that in easy way? There are lots of adapters and connections in that LinearLayout. How can I achieve that without broke any code.
I want to scroll whole activity.
Thanks in advance.
Set Scroll/NestedScrollView as a parent view in xml to scroll whole layout.
Add below attribute in recycler view to stop recycler scroll:
android:overScrollMode="never"
Try below code:
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:id="#+id/navigation_nested"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true"
android:overScrollMode="never">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="#dimen/margin_15">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/video_tv"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/margin_15"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/ic_video_tutorial"
android:drawablePadding="#dimen/margin_20"
android:fontFamily="#font/poppins"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/text_15"
android:text="#string/videos"
android:textColor="#color/blackTextColor"
android:textSize="#dimen/text_15" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:overScrollMode="never" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
You just add this line:
//java
yourRecyclerView.setLayouManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));
//kotlin
yourRecyclerView.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this)
or from xml:
app:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
Notice that there is not only LinearLayoutManager. If you are using a Grid RecyclerView than you might want to use GridLayoutManager
I solved the problem.
Just write ScrollView over the LinearLayout
<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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout>
.....
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
I have a Scrollview which contains an ImageView and RecyclerView.
if navigation drawer opened then closed the RecyclerView auto scrolling to top, How to stop this?
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/scrollViewMain"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/imageView_main_icons_line"
android:src="#drawable/main_line" />
...
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView_activity_main_passenger_log"
android:paddingBottom="2dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
This problem because of recyclerView has default focus.
Solution
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
android:orientation="vertical">
Add android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" to your immediate layout of scrollView
That is because RecyclerView ALWAYS set:
setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
this is hard coded in its constructor.
so if you apply those attribute in your XML for a RecyclerView
android:focusable="false"
android:focudeableInTouchMode="false"
that would be useless, you end up with recycleView.isFocusable() == true...
so the most elegant solution is to disable foucusable for RecyclerView's Parent.
<LinearLayout
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
...
>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
...
/>
/>
or you can just simply setFocusable(false)
Check out clearFocus() from here Android Dev Doc.
You can set a DrawerListener to your navigation drawer and use the onDrawerStateChanged() or some of the other options from here to call clearFocus() on your RecyclerView.
Adding android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" can restrict scroll to recylerview but if you have edittext inside your layout, this property can block the focus of that particular edittext too. So if you are using this property please make sure you are removing this property in your kotlin/java class once the layout loaded.
parentLayout?.descendantFocusability = FOCUS_BEFORE_DESCENDANTS
(view as ViewGroup).descendantFocusability = FOCUS_BEFORE_DESCENDANTS
Just add the following code in your linear layout, works 100% ` android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<LinearLayout
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
I found out how to preview a list item by using
tools:listitem="#layout/my_item_layout"
Android studio however is previewing the recyclerview as a vertical list. Is there a way to tell Android Studio to display the layout preview in a horizontal fashion using LinearLayoutManager?
Add a LayoutManager and set a horizontal orientation.
Here an example:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/homesRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
app:layoutManager="android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
/>
If you are using androidx libraries:
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/homesRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
app:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
/>
Just use in your layout the app:layoutManager and the android:orientation attributes and add them also using the tools namespace.
Something like:
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:orientation="horizontal"
app:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
tools:listitem="#layout/ly_item"
tools:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
tools:orientation="horizontal"
../>
the accepted answer works accurately. For androidx just use this in your recyclerView
app:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
android:orientation="horizontal"
AndroidX
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
tools:layoutManager="android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager"
tools:listitem="#layout/item"
tools:orientation="horizontal"/>
[Read more here]
Otherwise you can use in java file :
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this, LinearLayoutManager.HORIZONTAL, true));
I have two RecyclerView inside my NavigationDrawer. Both have the blue scroll effects.
How can I remove this effect in both RecyclerViews?
I tried changing: mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true); to false, but it remove scroll effects. (What is the effect of this method?)
Add this to your layout:
android:overScrollMode="never"
So:
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:overScrollMode="never"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
android:scrollbars="vertical" />
And in Java you would do
recyclerView.setOverScrollMode(View.OVER_SCROLL_NEVER)
or in Kotlin
recyclerView.overScrollMode = View.OVER_SCROLL_NEVER
