ScrollView .scrollTo not working? Saving ScrollView position on rotation
android
Solution
I figured it out.
Since I'm using `setText` to TextViews in my `onCreate`, calling `.scrollTo` won't work.
So now I'm using the following:
sView.post(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
sView.scrollTo(sViewX, sViewY);
}
});
Problem
Ok.. I must be overlooking something real simple here, but i think i'm trying to do something fairly basic.. Simply retain the scrollbar position of a ScrollView on orientation change... Here is the code for my onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState.. sView is the container for the ScrollView layout. Within my scrollview is a linearlayout with a lot of textviews. ``` @Override public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) { //---save whatever you need to persist— outState.putInt("sViewX",sView.getScrollX()); outState.putInt("sViewY",sView.getScrollY()); super.onSaveInstanceState(outState); } @Override public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState); sViewX = savedInstanceState.getInt("sViewX"); sViewY = savedInstanceState.getInt("sViewY"); sView.scrollTo(sViewX, sViewY); } ``` If I set a Toast with the values of sViewX and sViewY on the Restore, the values are kept and correct. Edit: I just tried to do a sView.scrollTo(0,150); in my onCreate.. just to see if that would open the activity at 150px down, and it didn't. I think my issue has to do with the .scrollTo method.
