How to make a Fragment scrollable with a ListView

android, android-fragments, android-listview, listview

Solution

To stop the listview scrolling use -

listView.setScrollContainer(false);

To scroll fragment put it inside ScrollView -

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
        <!-- everything you already have -->
</ScrollView>

NOTE:

If you put ListView inside a ScrollView then all the ListView does not stretch to its full height. Below is a method to fix this issue.

/**** Method for Setting the Height of the ListView dynamically.
 **** Hack to fix the issue of not showing all the items of the ListView
 **** when placed inside a ScrollView  ****/
public static void setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(ListView listView) {
    ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter();
    if (listAdapter == null)
        return;

    int desiredWidth = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(listView.getWidth(), MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
    int totalHeight = 0;
    View view = null;
    for (int i = 0; i < listAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
        view = listAdapter.getView(i, view, listView);
        if (i == 0)
            view.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(desiredWidth, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

        view.measure(desiredWidth, MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
        totalHeight += view.getMeasuredHeight();
    }
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = listView.getLayoutParams();
    params.height = totalHeight + (listView.getDividerHeight() * (listAdapter.getCount() - 1));
    listView.setLayoutParams(params);
    listView.requestLayout();
}

To use this method just pass the ListView inside this method :

ListView list1 = (ListView) view.findViewById(R.id.home_list_time);
setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(list1);

ListView list2 = (ListView) view.findViewById(R.id.home_list_stime);
setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(list2);

Problem

I want a Fragment that has 2 ListView. I dont want the listView to scroll instead i just want the whole Fragment to scroll. Heres the code: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:background="#fff" > <TextView android:id="@+id/day" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:paddingTop="15dp" android:text="Monday" android:textColor="#000" android:textSize="55sp" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/date" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@id/day" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:text="27 April, 2014" android:textColor="#000" android:textSize="45sp" /> <ListView android:id="@+id/home_list_time" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@id/date" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:background="@color/list_home_time_bg" android:divider="@android:color/white" android:dividerHeight="20.0sp" /> <ListView android:id="@+id/home_list_stime" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@id/home_list_time" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:background="@color/list_home_stime_bg" android:divider="@android:color/white" android:dividerHeight="20.0sp" /> </RelativeLayout> ``` When i run this code the 2nd listView gets its own scroll bar, is there a way to stop this and make the entire Fragment to scroll?
