How do you make a LinearLayout scrollable?

Question

I have lot of items on the screen and I need to use the scrollbar so the user can scroll down. However, the scroll is either not visible or it\'s not working. How is it poss

Answer 1

You need to place ScrollView as the first child of Layout file and now put your linearlayout inside it. Now, android will decide on the basis of content and device size available whether to show a scrollable or not.

Make sure linearlayout has no sibling because ScrollView can not have more than one child.
