I have a ScrolLView that wraps a ViewFlipper. The content in the ViewFlipper is not of equal height, so my second screen has a very long scrollbar that goes on and on with blank content:
<ScrollView android:id="#+id/outer_scroll"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<ViewFlipper android:id="#+id/flipper"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<EditText android:id="#+id/desc" style="#style/DescriptionArea"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:enabled="false" android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
android:background="#null" />
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/details_root"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:padding="10dp">
<TextView android:id="#+id/item_details" style="#style/DetailsLarge"
android:textColor="#000" android:visibility="gone"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="#string/item_details_tags" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/tags" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:textColor="#000"
android:visibility="gone" />
</LinearLayout>
</ViewFlipper>
</ScrollView>
So, for example, the EditText block is very long, and the scroll bar captures it all. I fling to the LinearLayout, and the scrollbar continues way past the TextView content. I essentially need it to "recalculate" the view height.
Also, wrapping the EditText and LinearLayout within their own ScrollViews is not an option, because then the soft/virtual keyboard blocks the EditText content.
During measure, ViewFlipper (as well as ViewSwitcher, TextSwitcher etc. - all descendants of ViewAnimator) will by default be sized according to the largest child, including the non-visible ones.
Set the MeasureAllChildren flag to false to change this behavior to only use the currently visible child when measuring the size:
ViewFlipper flipper = (ViewFlipper)findViewById(R.id.flipper);
flipper.setMeasureAllChildren(false);
If you're doing your viewflipper in xml you could also use android:measureAllChildren="false".

</LinearLayout>
The root element of this XML layout is a linear layout. It contains 2 linear layouts and one scroll. Since scroll view can only have one child, it contains a linear layout which in turn contains an expandable listView, horizontal scrollview (which contains an expandable listview) and a listview. As you can see, this is a very complicated layout, and I think it should be possible to simplify. Basically, I want the top 2 linear layouts to always take 35% of the screen, and the scrollview to take the rest. That's why I gave a weight of 0.2 to the first linear layout, 0.15 to the second linear layout, and 0.65 to scrollView.
Within the scrollView, I would like each of the 3 elements to take as much space as they would need, so that user scrolls down if he/she doesn't see everything. I know that expandableListView and ListView are already scrollable, so I will disable scrolling in them, so that parent's scroll bar is used.
However, I am facing several problems with this design:
1) In the first screenshot, you can see an expandableListView, horizontalScrollBar (with an expandableListView), and a listView.
Each of them has height set to "wrap content", so I would expect each of them to take as much space as they need. However, you can see in the second screenshot that when I open the second expandable listView (the one within a horizontal scrollBar), listview doesn't move down to make space for the expanded list view. How can I achieve it, so that each of them moves down when the expandable list above expands? Is the only way to do it is to combine them all in one expandableListView?
2) My second expandableListView is in the horizontalScrollBar, however, I can't scroll it horizontally. Can I even put horizontal scrollBar inside a vertical scrollBar?
First off, a little simplification: Your second LinearLayout (the 0.15 one) can be left out since it only has a single child. Just be sure to adjust the layout parameters of that single child (the TextView).
For your problem #1, try calling invalidate() or requestLayout() on your root view.
Problem #2 is actually solved: Link
My general impression is that this nesting of ScrollViews and ListViews is pretty complex. Have you considered alternatives such as TabLayout or DrawerLayout?
Cheers
Is it possible to tell a view, that it should at least wrap it's content but if the parent view leaves space to stretch, than it should fill it's parent?
Example:
What I want is, that the container linear layout wraps around it's content... and that in case of that my title text view is wider than the scroll view, it does NOT get cut! If I set the title textview to wrap_content, it does not fill it's parent if the scrollview is wider than the title...
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/llWeightsParent"
style="#style/group"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:clickable="true"
android:onClick="onClick"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvWeight"
style="#style/text_group_title"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="1dp"
android:text="#string/weight" />
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/svWeights"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/llWeights"
style="#style/group_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
</LinearLayout>
If what you mean is imageview, then you can set
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
For others I'd just set android:layout_width="match_parent" and won't worry too much about it.
I'm struggling to get a layout looking correctly, and I've tried to produce the shortest, smallest possible example of my problem.
My goal is to have a header and footer View, at the top and bottom of the screen, with a ListView in between the two, with another View (let's call it the label, it's the gray box from the screen shots) directly below the ListView. This label, and the footer should always be shown when ListView needs to scroll.
Visual Result
When the ListView does not need to scroll (this is correct):
When the ListView needs to scroll, the footer and the gray box are pushed off screen (wrong):
Layout

Test Activity
public class TestActivity extends ListActivity
{
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
ArrayList<String> items = new ArrayList<String>();
items.add("one");
items.add("two");
items.add("three");
items.add("four");
items.add("five");
items.add("six");
items.add("seven");
items.add("eight");
items.add("nine");
items.add("ten");
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.simple_list_item_1, items));
setContentView(com.myproject.android.R.layout.test);
}
}
I've tried a few different approaches, such as giving the ListView layout_weight="1" and removing the blank View that I use to push the footer to the bottom. This is almost what I want, it keeps the footer and label visible when the ListView scrolls, but when it only has 1 or 2 items, I need the gray box right below the ListView. I've also attempted to use a RelativeLayout, without success. I guess I'm completely misunderstanding things.
EDIT
Here's my attempt with a RelativeLayout which still isn't correct.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="header"
android:padding="20dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#color/red"
android:id="#+id/header"
/>
<ListView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_below="#id/header"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="this should be directly below the ListView, but not pushed off screen when the ListView needs to scroll"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#color/light_gray"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:layout_below="#android:id/list"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="footer"
android:padding="20dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#color/blue"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/footer"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Relative Layout (Still Wrong):
Add android:layout_weight="1" to the listview. That will make it the biggest element in the LinearLayout, without pushing the other ones off the screen.
This layout adds the header a top of the screen and the footter and the bottom. The list fills the rest of the screen. With theses aproach list elements never be obscured by the footer. See how to add the gray box below the XML...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="header"
android:padding="20dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#color/red"
android:id="#+id/header"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="footer"
android:padding="20dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#color/blue"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/footer"/>
<ListView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_below="#id/header"
android:layout_above="#id/footer"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Ok. This XML solves the problem of the missing footer. Now we have to add a gray box at the end of the list. I think there is two ways to do it:
Use the addFooterView method: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ListView.html#addFooterView(android.view.View)
Play with the adapter and the getViewTypeCount() method so you can define two types or elements: normal elements and footer element. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/BaseAdapter.html#getViewTypeCount()
A solution that worked for me was to add positive padding to the bottom of the list view and negative padding to the top of the "footer". This will work in a linear layout or a relative layout.
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingBottom="50dp"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="-50dp"/>
Two years late to answer the question, but I will leave my solution so it may help someone with the same problem. I solve this problem using 2 nested LinearLayouts and using layout_weigth. Maybe not the best performatic layout, but it reaches the desired effect.
You need to arrange your layout this way:
Your ListView will have wrap_content height to take only the needed space when not filling the entire screen.
Your ListView will be inside a layout with height using layout_weight so the list will take only the needed space when not filling the entire screen and to take only a limited space of the screen when it have size enouth to push the views out of screen.
The grey box view the should be immediately below the list will have wrap_content height and will be a sinbling of the layout of step 2.
This layout and the grey box will be inside a second layout with wrap_content height so they can stay together.
Now you have a layout with the list and the grey view and the list won't push the other views out of screen if it gets too big; you only need to move the footer view to the bottom of the screen.
5a. If you are using RelativeLayout as your root layout, you can do as sgallego said and use android:layout_alignParentBottom.
5b. But if you are using LinearLayout you need to create a third layout with layout_weigth and put inside the layout of step 4 and a empty view also with layout_weigth to fill the empty space.
Here is a commented example.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<!-- Header -->
<TextView
android:id="#+id/RecordStudy_StudyLabel"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/RecordStudy_StudyLabel"
android:textSize="#dimen/text_large" />
<!-- Body -->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<!--
This layout encapsules the list and the button that must be immediately
below the list with a wrap_content height, so the list plus the button
fills only as much space as they need (if the list is not big enouth to
fill the entire screen).
-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<!--
Layout with varaible size with a list inside.
Using layout_weight tells android that this layout should not grow
greater then the screen, but uses only the free space.
-->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<!--
Inside this limited height layout, there is a list with height
wrap_content so it can grow as much as it needs INSIDE the
layout (through scrolling).
-->
<ListView
android:id="#+id/RecordStudy_StudyList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
<!-- Button immediately below the list -->
<Button
android:id="#+id/RecordStudy_AddStudy"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/RecordStudy_AddStudy" />
</LinearLayout>
<!-- Space between the list and the footer -->
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
<!-- Footer -->
<Button
android:id="#+id/RecordStudy_ConfirmButton"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/RecordStudy_ConfirmButton" />
</LinearLayout>
One solution that I implemented and found useful was to keep the listview inside a linear layout with fixed height so that it doesn't extend and overlap other items.
Something like this:
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="header"
android:padding="20dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#color/red"
android:id="#+id/header"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="150dip" //assume 150dip height is sufficient
<ListView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_below="#id/header"/>
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="this should be directly below the ListView, but not pushed off screen when the ListView needs to scroll"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#color/light_gray"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:layout_below="#android:id/list"/>
Basically I have a horizontal scroll view which, by monitoring the onTouch event I'm paging (ie:each visible part of the scroll view (page) "clicks" into the next when scrolling, rather than just having a standard ScrollView. see paged scrollviews in iOS).
Now I want to find a way to have inner children inherit the same width as the scrollview (which is set at "fill_parent").
Here is my XML to help:
<HorizontalScrollView
android:id="#+id/scrollview"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/scrollviewbg">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/content1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/content2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/content3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</HorizontalScrollView>
As you can see the scrollview is set to width fill_parent and there is a LinearLayout inside it. Now at the moment there are three images which have a set width and height similar to the width of the screen, but what I want to do is change that for 3 LinearLayouts.
Each LinearLayout needs to inherit the same width as the scroll view, so that each one takes up a whole "page" when my code is applied, as it were.
How would I do this? Is it something I will have to do using code? What code will I need?
Thank you.
I know its not direct answer, but its much easier to user ViewPager from Compatibility Package for paging functionality. You can find an example in samples folder (see src/com/example/android/supportv4/app/FragmentPagerSupport.java for source code).
Try this:
android:fillViewport="true"
<HorizontalScrollView
android:fillViewport="true"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:background="#drawable/black_border"
android:id="#+id/displayText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:scrollHorizontally="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="right"
android:padding="20dp"
android:text=""
android:textSize="20sp" />
</HorizontalScrollView>
inside horizontal scroll view, i have a text view, you can try for image view
Set all the layout_height parameters as fill_parent. You should see the image in full screen then.
So my layout looks basically like this:
<ScrollView>
<RelativeLayout>
<BunchOfViews/>
<ImageView android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
I have the ScrollView so all of the layout always is visible no matter the height of the screen. The problem is that on a very high screen, I still want my ImageView to be at the bottom. However, a child of a ScrollView don't seem to have a defined bottom. The View is placed at the top of the layout. How can I solve this problem in a neat way?
I ran into the same issue. I never could find a very pleasing solution, but here is how I did it. Maybe someone else has a better way, I hate adding layouts that don't do anything.
My hack was to add a dummy linearlayout at the bottom of the scrollview that has fill_parent to take up all the room and force the scrollview to fill the screen. Then add whatever component I want to that linearlayout.
Here is one of my layouts that does this:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:fillViewport="true" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="15px" >
<!-- bunch of components here -->
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_marginTop="5px"
android:gravity="center_horizontal|bottom"
android:paddingTop="2px" >
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingLeft="20px"
android:paddingRight="20px"
android:text="Delete" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
I had the same issue and found this page:
http://www.curious-creature.org/2010/08/15/scrollviews-handy-trick/
Basically, you set the ScrollView's android:fillViewport to true, which will allow the child view to expand to the same height as the ScrollView itself, filling out the space. You then just need to have one of the child controls' layout_height set to fill_parent and layout_weight to 1, causing that control to "spring" to fill the empty space.
Note that if the contents of the ScrollView are already tall enough to fill the ScrollView, the android:fillViewport has no effect, so the setting only kicks in when needed.
My final XML looks like similar to this:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1">
<!-- this expands to fill the empty space if needed -->
</LinearLayout>
<!-- this sits at the bottom of the ScrollView,
getting pushed out of view if the ScrollView's
content is tall enough -->
<ImageView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/footer_image">
</ImageView>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
it seems that the linearlayout isn't necessary, all that is important is the fillViewPort.
you could just use
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottomParent="true">
now that you have specified the relativelayout to be at least the size of the screen.
its work for me perfectly android:fillViewport="true"
Joel Malone's answer Adding view to bottom of layout inside a scrollview does that trick. My solution is almost the same, except that I use Space widget to do the work of filling the rest height inside the parent layout. Like this:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true"
>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<android.support.v4.widget.Space
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<ImageView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/footer_image"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Attention:
fill_parent in the other answers is noted as deprecated for a long time;
Compare to an empty LinearLayout to fill the rest of parent layout, I think Space is much more appropriate(it's designed to do that job.)
Finally, don't forget that important attribute at the beginning of ScrollView: android:fillViewport="true". They together make this trick.
just put this attribute android:fillViewport="true" to your ScrolView
and you will got what you need
On your view that you want to be at the bottom use android:gravity="bottom"

view.addView( layout, lps );
I tried alot to align the Scroll View to bottom of the screen but thats not possible according to this link.
https://newbedev.com/how-do-i-align-views-at-the-bottom-of-the-screen
The way i found was to create a view with 1dp height and aa id (lets say android:id="#+id/bottomView") at the bottom of your XML page.
now just add these attributes to your scroll view..

Here is how you can use a ConstraintLayout to align the image view at the bottom:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView 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:fillViewport="true">
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:id="#+id/content_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_view"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Text 1"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#+id/space_view"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="parent" />
<Space
android:id="#+id/space_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="#+id/image_view"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/text_view" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="..."
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/space_view" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</ScrollView>
