ScrollView vertical scrolling does not work


I have encountered a problem and need your guidance to fix it.

I am using a ScrollView to make the content vertically scrollable. However, when I try to scroll, the content does not move at all. I am unable to understand why this is happening. I have tried many suggested solutions, but none of them have worked for me.

I have tried several solutions to make ScrollView work, but it is still not scrolling.

I used flex: 1, flexGrow: 1, minHeight: 100%, and height: 100%. I also imported ScrollView from react-native-gesture-handler instead of react-native. Additionally, I applied these properties in both style and contentContainerStyle, testing them one by one and together, but nothing worked.

For now, I am focusing on Android. Any help would be appreciated!

Here is the main code:

<SafeAreaView style={guestServiceStyle.detailContainer}>
      <StatusBar barStyle="dark-content" backgroundColor={Colors.offWhite} />
      {/* header */}
      <TabHeader name="John" />
      {/* details */}
      <ScrollView>
        <View style={guestServiceStyle.detailImageContainer}>
          <Image
            source={Images.placeholder}
            style={guestServiceStyle.detailImage}
          />
        </View>
        <View style={guestServiceStyle.detailContentContainer}>
          <View>
            <Text style={guestServiceStyle.propertyName}>
              {singleProperty.property_name}
            </Text>
            {/* about this place */}
            <Text style={guestServiceStyle.aboutThisPlace}>

Here is the style:

  detailImageContainer: {
    width: '100%',
    height: '50%',
  },
  detailImage: {
    resizeMode: 'cover',
    width: '100%',
    height: '100%',
  },
  detailContentContainer: {
    margin: 10,
  },
  propertyName: {
    color: Colors.black,
    fontSize: 24,
    fontWeight: '600',
    marginVertical: 8,

Solution

  • The problem you have is with the detailImageContainer style. More specificially height property. You cannot give '50%' height to an element inside ScrollView. Instead you should give a constant number.

    const window = Dimensions.get('window');
          
    detailImageContainer: {
      width: '100%',
      height: 60, // >> try this
      // height: window.height * 0.5, // >> or this
    }
