Android ListView add items to top without list view scroll
android, listview, scroll
Solution
I have found solution here Retaining position in ListView after calling notifyDataSetChanged
Sorry for duplicate question. The final code is this:
int index = this.commentsListView.getFirstVisiblePosition() + comments.size();
View v = this.commentsListView.getChildAt(commentsListView.getHeaderViewsCount());
int top = (v == null) ? 0 : v.getTop();
this.commentsListViewAdapter.AddRangeToTop(comments);
this.commentsListViewAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
this.commentsListView.setSelectionFromTop(index, top);
Problem
I have a listView and I want to add new items to the top of the list view but I dont want list view to scroll its content. I want user to look at the same item as he was looking before new items were added. This is how I add new items to ListView: ``` this.commentsListViewAdapter.addRangeToTop(comments); this.commentsListViewAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); ``` and this is `addRangeToTop` method: ``` public void addRangeToTop(ArrayList<Comment> comments) { for (Comment comment : comments) { this.insert(comment, 0); } } ``` this is my listView: ``` <ListView android:id="@+id/CommentsListView" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_above="@+id/AddCommentLayout" android:stackFromBottom="true" > </ListView> ``` What I want to do is to load old comments when user scrolls to the top. Thank you for your help.
