Horizontal Scroll View inside ViewPager

Question

I have horizontal scrolling pages as in the android market (ViewPager).

My problem is that i want to have a Horizontal Scrolling View in them with some images?Is tha

Answer 1

You need to extend the HorizontalScrollView and intercept touch events. What worked for me was the following sample:

public class MyScrollView extends HorizontalScrollView {

    public MyScrollView(Context p_context, AttributeSet p_attrs)
    {
        super(p_context, p_attrs);
    }

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

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent p_event)
    {
        if (p_event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE && getParent() != null)
        {
            getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        }

        return super.onTouchEvent(p_event);
    }
}

Then, instead of using the HorizontalScrollView in your layout XML, you need to use this custom view.

I've reworked a solution and finally found a very simple way to implement it the same way it's been done on GMail: the HorizontalScrollView will scroll until it reaches one of its edges. Then on next scrolling, the whole page will scroll.

All it required was overriding the HorizontalScrollView to check scroll direction vs edges and also make sure content can actually scroll.

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) 
{
    if (no_scrolling)
        return false;

    //  Standard behavior
    //
    return super.onTouchEvent(ev);
}

boolean no_scrolling = false;
float old_x, old_y;
@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev)
{
    int action = ev.getActionMasked();
    Log.d(at_data.TAG, "HSV scroll intercept: " + String.format("0x%08x", action));

    if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
    {
        old_x = ev.getX();
        old_y = ev.getY();
        no_scrolling = false;

    }
    else if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE)
    {
        float dx = ev.getX() - old_x;
        float dy = ev.getY() - old_y;

        if (Math.abs(dx) > Math.abs(dy) && dx != 0)
        {
            View hsvChild = getChildAt(0);
            int childW = hsvChild.getWidth();
            int W = getWidth();

            Log.d(at_data.TAG, "HSV " + childW + " > " + W + " ? dx = " + dx + " dy = " + dy);
            if (childW > W)
            {
                int scrollx = getScrollX();
                if ( (dx < 0 && scrollx + W >= childW) || (dx > 0 && scrollx <= 0))
                {
                    Log.d(at_data.TAG, "HSV Wider: on edge already");
                    no_scrolling = true;
                    return false;
                }
                else
                {
                    Log.d(at_data.TAG, "HSV Wider: can scroll");
                    no_scrolling = false;
                }
            }
            else
            {
                Log.d(at_data.TAG, "HSV cannot scroll in desired direction");
                no_scrolling = true;
            }
        }
    }

    //  Standard behavior
    //
    return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(ev);
}

<Linearlayout>
    <linearlayout>
        <scrollView>
           <ImageView1></ImageView>
           <ImageView2></....>
        </scrollView>
    </Linearlayout>
    <EditText>
</Linearlayout>

In the above case, scrollVIew is applicable for only the two images not for the edittext.

In other case:

 <Linearlayout>
    <linearlayout>
        <scrollView>
            here listVIew with Images using listView adapter
        </scrollView>
    </Linearlayout>
    <EditText>
</Linearlayout>

Here scrollView is applicable for only listView.
