RecyclerView - Get view at particular position in android

In Android, you can get the view at a particular position in a RecyclerView by using the RecyclerView.Adapter and the RecyclerView.ViewHolder. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Obtain a reference to the RecyclerView:

    RecyclerView recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);

  2. Get the LayoutManager associated with your RecyclerView. This is typically used to determine the position of views in the RecyclerView.

    LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = (LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.getLayoutManager();

    Make sure to cast it to the appropriate LayoutManager class if you are using a different one (e.g., GridLayoutManager).

  3. Use the findViewByPosition() method of the LayoutManager to get the view at the desired position:

    int position = 2; // Replace with the desired position View viewAtPosition = layoutManager.findViewByPosition(position);

    In the code above, position is the index of the item for which you want to get the view. viewAtPosition will hold a reference to the view at that position. Note that this method may return null if the view at that position is not currently visible on the screen.

  4. You can now manipulate or interact with the viewAtPosition as needed.

Here's a complete example:

// Get the RecyclerView RecyclerView recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recyclerView); // Get the LinearLayoutManager LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = (LinearLayoutManager) recyclerView.getLayoutManager(); // Specify the desired position int position = 2; // Replace with the desired position // Get the view at the specified position View viewAtPosition = layoutManager.findViewByPosition(position); if (viewAtPosition != null) { // The view is found, you can manipulate it viewAtPosition.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED); } else { // The view is not currently visible on the screen Toast.makeText(this, "View at position " + position + " is not visible", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); }

In this example, we try to get the view at position 2 and change its background color to red if it exists. If the view is not visible, we display a toast message indicating that it's not visible.
