How to disable all click events of a layout?

Question

I have a layout that contains many views. Is there an easy way to disable all its views click events?

Answer 1

Rather than iterating through all the children view, you can add this function to the parent Layout view

@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    return true;
}

This will be called before the onTouchEvent for any child views, and if it returns true, the onTouchEvent for child views wont be called at all. You can create a boolean field member to toggle this state on and off if you want.
