EditText not scrollable inside ScrollView

Question

I have a ScrollView inside which is an EditText which is set to scroll vertically. But it does not scrolls. Instead the whole layout scrolls, Whene

Answer 1

• You have set ScrollView as your parent most layout. That's reason your whole layout gets scrolled.
• As, far as your EditText is concerned, you have used android:scrollbars = "vertical" which means if the EditText grows a vertical srollBar will appear. You will get the scrollbar and scrolling effect only if edittext has data high enough..

Hope this helps...
