ScrollView doesn't start at top

Question

I have created a scrollview and inside I placed a LinearLayout containing an image a text and a button. Unfortunately when the app displays this layout the scrollview's starting position is in the middle, displaying the text instead of the top, displaying the image.

I have tried programatically the scrollto and it didnt work. I have also tried the requestfocus in the XML and it didn't work.

Any ideas?

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:id="@+id/sv" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" > <LinearLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" tools:context=".MainActivity" > <ImageView android:id="@+id/imageView1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/rregeneratingcream" /> <EditText android:id="@+id/etDescription" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ems="10" android:inputType="textMultiLine" android:enabled="false" android:background="#00000000" /> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonRegeneration" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Next" /> </LinearLayout> </ScrollView>

Try this:

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:id="@+id/sv" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" > <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" tools:context=".MainActivity" > <ImageView android:id="@+id/imageView1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:layout_alignParentTop="true"/> <EditText android:id="@+id/etDescription" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ems="10" android:layout_below="@+id/imageView1" android:inputType="textMultiLine" android:focusable="false" android:background="#00000000" /> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonRegeneration" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_below="@+id/etDescription" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Next" /> </RelativeLayout> </ScrollView>

And let me know if you need any further help.

didnt work but the key was to set the edittext to focusable false

You can use the Custom Vertical ScrollView like this :

package com.xyz.utils; import android.content.Context; import android.util.AttributeSet; import android.util.Log; import android.view.MotionEvent; import android.widget.ScrollView; public class VerticalScrollview extends ScrollView { public VerticalScrollview(Context context) { super(context); } public VerticalScrollview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) { super(context, attrs); } public VerticalScrollview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) { super(context, attrs, defStyle); } @Override public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { final int action = ev.getAction(); switch (action) { case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN: Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: DOWN super false"); super.onTouchEvent(ev); break; case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE: return false; // redirect MotionEvents to ourself case MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL: Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: CANCEL super false"); super.onTouchEvent(ev); break; case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP: Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: UP super false"); return false; default: Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: " + action); break; } return false; } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { super.onTouchEvent(ev); Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onTouchEvent. action: " + ev.getAction()); return true; } }
