If you use a RecyclerView, try to use OnScrollListener. Do something like this.

 private class YourOnScrollListener extends RecyclerView.OnScrollListener {

    private boolean directionLeft;

    @Override
    public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
        if (newState == RecyclerView.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE) {
            if (directionLeft) drawButtons();
            //Draw buttons here if you want them to be drawn after scroll is finished
            //here you can play with states, to draw buttons or erase it whenever you want
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
        super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);
        if (dx < 0) directionLeft = true;
        else directionLeft = false;
    }

}
