Horizontal ListView in Android?

Question

Is it possible to make the ListView horizontally? I have done this using a gallery view, but the selected item comes to the center of the screen automatically.

Answer 1

There is a great library for that, called TwoWayView, it's very easy to implement, just include the project library into your work space and add it as a library project to your original project, and then follow the following steps which are originally mentioned here:

First, let's add a style indicating the orientation of the ListView (horizontal or vertical) in (res/values/styles.xml):

Then,

In your Layout XML, use the following code to add the TwoWayView:

and finally, just declare it and deal with it like any regular ListView:

TwoWayView lvTest = (TwoWayView) findViewById(R.id.lvItems);

All the methods of ListView will work here as usual, but there is only one difference I noticed, which is when setting the choice mode, the method setChoiceMode not takes an int value but a value from enum called ChoiceMode, so list_view.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE); will be lvTest.setChoiceMode(ChoiceMode.SINGLE); // or MULTIPLE or NONE.
