Using ScrollView

August 20, 2012 | Rishabh Agrawal | General

ScrollView is a special type of FrameLayout in that it enables users to scroll through a list of view that occupy more space than the physical display.

Remember, the ScrollView can have only one child control, so we can make a container (Linear, relative, Table Layouts) the child of the ScrollView and put all the controls inside this child.

I made the mistake of setting android:layout_height=”fill_parent” once ,this means “set the height to the height of the parent.” Make sure you don’t do this  otherwise, the ScrollView would become useless .

Also you should set ScrollView attribute fillViewport as true ,this lets the child to expand to the height of ScrollView if required.
