unable to scroll cardview containing list views


I have a layout which contains 3 cardviews inside it. One of them has static content and a fixed size while the other three contains dynamic content being loaded from a list view.

I am getting scrollable content inside the 3 cardviews ,but instead i want the list views to fill_parent inside the cardviews and the cardviews should scroll instead. Here's my code snippet

Solution

  • Wrap your CardView's container LinearLayout with android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView for nested scrolling.

    Try this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

        xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        tools:context="com.example.animo.gita.activity.MainActivity">
    
        <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
    
            <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
                android:id="@+id/toolbar"

                android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
                android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
                app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
