ScrollView .scrollTo not working? Saving ScrollView position on rotation

Question

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 orienta

Instead of sending scroll action to next run-loop, you can scroll your view in global layout callback:

@Override
public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
    sView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(
        new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
            @Override
            public void onGlobalLayout() {
                sView.scrollTo(sViewX, sViewY);
            }
        }
    );
}
