Returning false in OnTouch on ImageView but still event is getting consumed

Question

I am using ImageView.onTouch(). I am returning false for ACTION_MOVE but still the onTouch() event is consumed.

imageV

This works too, but I'm still not 100% sure what you are asking to do. This sets the imageView clickable to false and should therefore allow the touch not to be consumed by it. Also, I added clickable to the LinearLayout.

 imageView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent ev) {
            System.out.println("jan25 iv onTouch");

            if (ev.getActionMasked()==MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                System.out.println("jan25 iv ACTION_DOWN");
                return true;
            }

            if (ev.getActionMasked()==MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE){
                System.out.println("jan25 iv ACTION_MOVE");
                imageView.setClickable(false);
                return false;

            }
            if (ev.getActionMasked()==MotionEvent.ACTION_UP){
                System.out.println("jan25 iv ACTION_UP");
                return true;
            }

            System.out.println("jan25 iv false");
            return false;

        }
    });
