Android: ScrollView Issue

Question

I have had a number of problems with ScrollViews. Recently I tried to create a LinearView which content exceeds the screen size so I created the new layout with parent eleme

Answer 1

Yes, as Romain said, scrollview needs following combo.

1. for ScrollView android:fillViewport="true"
2. for child of ScrollView android:layout_height="wrap_content"

Answer 2

Your EditText should have a height of wrap_content. fill_parent has no meaning in a ScrollView. If you want the EditText to fill your ScrollView when it's content is smaller than the ScrollView, use android:fillViewport="true" on the ScrollView.
