Class HorizontalScrollView

All Implemented Interfaces:
Drawable.Callback, ViewManager, ViewParent

public class HorizontalScrollView extends FrameLayout
Layout container for a view hierarchy that can be scrolled by the user, allowing it to be larger than the physical display. A HorizontalScrollView is a FrameLayout, meaning you should place one child in it containing the entire contents to scroll; this child may itself be a layout manager with a complex hierarchy of objects. A child that is often used is a LinearLayout in a horizontal orientation, presenting a horizontal array of top-level items that the user can scroll through.

The TextView class also takes care of its own scrolling, so does not require a HorizontalScrollView, but using the two together is possible to achieve the effect of a text view within a larger container.

HorizontalScrollView only supports horizontal scrolling. For vertical scrolling, use either ScrollView or ListView.

    • onMeasure

      protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
      Description copied from class: View
      Measure the view and its content to determine the measured width and the measured height. This method is invoked by View.measure(int, int) and should be overridden by subclasses to provide accurate and efficient measurement of their contents.

      CONTRACT: When overriding this method, you must call View.setMeasuredDimension(int, int) to store the measured width and height of this view. Failure to do so will trigger an IllegalStateException, thrown by View.measure(int, int). Calling super.onMeasure() is a valid use.

      The base class implementation of measure defaults to the background size, unless a larger size is allowed by the MeasureSpec. Subclasses should override the base one to provide better measurements of their content.

      Overrides:
      onMeasure in class FrameLayout
      Parameters:
      widthMeasureSpec - width measure specification imposed by the parent MeasureSpec
      heightMeasureSpec - height measure specification imposed by the parent MeasureSpec
    • dispatchKeyEvent

      public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(@NonNull KeyEvent event)
      Description copied from class: View
      Dispatch a key event to the next view on the focus path. This path runs from the top of the view tree down to the currently focused view. If this view has focus, it will dispatch to itself. Otherwise it will dispatch the next node down the focus path. This method also fires any key listeners.
      Overrides:
      dispatchKeyEvent in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      event - The key event to be dispatched.
      Returns:
      True if the event was handled, false otherwise.
    • executeKeyEvent

      public boolean executeKeyEvent(KeyEvent event)
      You can call this function yourself to have the scroll view perform scrolling from a key event, just as if the event had been dispatched to it by the view hierarchy.
      Parameters:
      event - The key event to execute.
      Returns:
      Return true if the event was handled, else false.
    • requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent

      public void requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean disallowIntercept)
      Description copied from interface: ViewParent
      Called when a child does not want this parent and its ancestors to intercept touch events with ViewGroup.onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent).

      This parent should pass this call onto its parents. This parent must obey this request for the duration of the touch (that is, only clear the flag after this parent has received an up or a cancel.

      Specified by:
      requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent in interface ViewParent
      Overrides:
      requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      disallowIntercept - True if the child does not want the parent to intercept touch events.
    • onInterceptTouchEvent

      public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev)
      Description copied from class: ViewGroup
      Implement this method to intercept all touch screen motion events. This allows you to watch events as they are dispatched to your children, and take ownership of the current gesture at any point.

      Using this function takes some care, as it has a fairly complicated interaction with View.onTouchEvent(MotionEvent), and using it requires implementing that method as well as this one in the correct way. Events will be received in the following order:

      1. You will receive the down event here.
      2. The down event will be handled either by a child of this view group, or given to your own onTouchEvent() method to handle; this means you should implement onTouchEvent() to return true, so you will continue to see the rest of the gesture (instead of looking for a parent view to handle it). Also, by returning true from onTouchEvent(), you will not receive any following events in onInterceptTouchEvent() and all touch processing must happen in onTouchEvent() like normal.
      3. For as long as you return false from this function, each following event (up to and including the final up) will be delivered first here and then to the target's onTouchEvent().
      4. If you return true from here, you will not receive any following events: the target view will receive the same event but with the action MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL, and all further events will be delivered to your onTouchEvent() method and no longer appear here.
      Overrides:
      onInterceptTouchEvent in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      ev - The motion event being dispatched down the hierarchy.
      Returns:
      Return true to steal motion events from the children and have them dispatched to this ViewGroup through onTouchEvent(). The current target will receive an ACTION_CANCEL event, and no further messages will be delivered here.
    • onTouchEvent

      public boolean onTouchEvent(@NonNull MotionEvent ev)
      Description copied from class: View
      Implement this method to handle touch screen motion events.

      If this method is used to detect click actions, it is recommended that the actions be performed by implementing and calling View.performClick(). This will ensure consistent system behavior.

      Overrides:
      onTouchEvent in class View
      Parameters:
      ev - the touch event
      Returns:
      true if the event was handled by the view, false otherwise
    • onGenericMotionEvent

      public boolean onGenericMotionEvent(@NonNull MotionEvent event)
      Description copied from class: View
      Implement this method to handle generic motion events.

      Implementations of this method should check if this view ENABLED and CLICKABLE.

      Overrides:
      onGenericMotionEvent in class View
      Parameters:
      event - the generic motion event being processed.
      Returns:
      true if the event was consumed by the view, false otherwise
    • shouldDelayChildPressedState

      public boolean shouldDelayChildPressedState()
      Description copied from class: ViewGroup
      Return true if the pressed state should be delayed for children or descendants of this ViewGroup. Generally, this should be done for containers that can scroll, such as a List. This prevents the pressed state from appearing when the user is actually trying to scroll the content.

      The default implementation returns true for compatibility reasons. Subclasses that do not scroll should generally override this method and return false.

      Overrides:
      shouldDelayChildPressedState in class ViewGroup
    • onOverScrolled

      protected void onOverScrolled(int scrollX, int scrollY, boolean clampedX, boolean clampedY)
      Description copied from class: View
      Called by View.overScrollBy(int, int, int, int, int, int, int, int, boolean) to respond to the results of an over-scroll operation.
      Overrides:
      onOverScrolled in class View
      Parameters:
      scrollX - New X scroll value in pixels
      scrollY - New Y scroll value in pixels
      clampedX - True if scrollX was clamped to an over-scroll boundary
      clampedY - True if scrollY was clamped to an over-scroll boundary
    • pageScroll

      public boolean pageScroll(int direction)

      Handles scrolling in response to a "page up/down" shortcut press. This method will scroll the view by one page left or right and give the focus to the leftmost/rightmost component in the new visible area. If no component is a good candidate for focus, this scrollview reclaims the focus.

      Parameters:
      direction - the scroll direction: View.FOCUS_LEFT to go one page left or View.FOCUS_RIGHT to go one page right
      Returns:
      true if the key event is consumed by this method, false otherwise
    • fullScroll

      public boolean fullScroll(int direction)

      Handles scrolling in response to a "home/end" shortcut press. This method will scroll the view to the left or right and give the focus to the leftmost/rightmost component in the new visible area. If no component is a good candidate for focus, this scrollview reclaims the focus.

      Parameters:
      direction - the scroll direction: View.FOCUS_LEFT to go the left of the view or View.FOCUS_RIGHT to go the right
      Returns:
      true if the key event is consumed by this method, false otherwise
    • arrowScroll

      Parameters:
      delta - the number of pixels to scroll by on the X axis
      Returns:
      if actually scrolled
    • smoothScrollTo

      public final void smoothScrollTo(int x)
      Like scrollTo(int, int), but scroll smoothly instead of immediately.
      Parameters:
      x - the position where to scroll on the X axis
    • computeHorizontalScrollRange

      protected int computeHorizontalScrollRange()

      Overrides:
      requestChildFocus in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      child - The child of this ViewParent that wants focus. This view will contain the focused view. It is not necessarily the view that actually has focus.
      focused - The view that is a descendant of child that actually has focus
    • onRequestFocusInDescendants

      protected boolean onRequestFocusInDescendants(int direction, Rect previouslyFocusedRect)
      When looking for focus in children of a scroll view, need to be a little more careful not to give focus to something that is scrolled off-screen.

      This is more expensive than the default ViewGroup implementation, otherwise this behavior might have been made the default.

      Overrides:
      onRequestFocusInDescendants in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      direction - One of FOCUS_UP, FOCUS_DOWN, FOCUS_LEFT, and FOCUS_RIGHT

    • requestChildRectangleOnScreen

      public boolean requestChildRectangleOnScreen(View child, Rect rectangle, boolean immediate)
      Description copied from interface: ViewParent
      Called when a child of this group wants a particular rectangle to be positioned onto the screen. ViewGroups overriding this can trust that:
      • child will be a direct child of this group
      • rectangle will be in the child's content coordinates

      ViewGroups overriding this should uphold the contract:

      • nothing will change if the rectangle is already visible
      • the view port will be scrolled only just enough to make the rectangle visible
      Specified by:
      requestChildRectangleOnScreen in interface ViewParent
      Overrides:
      requestChildRectangleOnScreen in class ViewGroup
      Parameters:
      child - The direct child making the request.
      rectangle - The rectangle in the child's coordinates the child wishes to be on the screen.
      immediate - True to forbid animated or delayed scrolling, false otherwise
      Returns:
      Whether the group scrolled to handle the operation
    • requestLayout

      public void requestLayout()
      Description copied from class: View
      Call this when something has changed which has invalidated the layout of this view. This will schedule a layout pass of the view tree. This should not be called while the view hierarchy is currently in a layout pass (View.isInLayout(). If layout is happening, the request may be honored at the end of the current layout pass (and then layout will run again) or after the current frame is drawn and the next layout occurs.

      Subclasses which override this method should call the superclass method to handle possible request-during-layout errors correctly.

      Specified by:
      requestLayout in interface ViewParent
      Overrides:
      requestLayout in class View
    • onLayout

      Description copied from class: View
      Called from View.layout(int, int, int, int) when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children.

      Derived classes with children should override this method and call layout on each of their children.

      Overrides:
      onLayout in class FrameLayout
      Parameters:
      changed - This is a new size or position for this view
      l - Left position, relative to parent

    • fling

      public void fling(int velocityX)
      Fling the scroll view
      Parameters:
      velocityX - The initial velocity in the X direction. Positive numbers mean that the finger/cursor is moving down the screen, which means we want to scroll towards the left.
    • scrollTo

      public void scrollTo(int x, int y)
      Set the scrolled position of your view. This will cause a call to View.onScrollChanged(int, int, int, int) and the view will be invalidated.

      This version also clamps the scrolling to the bounds of our child.

      Overrides:
      scrollTo in class View
      Parameters:
      x - the x position to scroll to
      y - the y position to scroll to
    • draw

      public void draw(@NonNull Canvas canvas)
      Description copied from class: View
      Base method that directly draws this view and its background, foreground, overlay and all children to the given canvas. When implementing a view, override View.onDraw(Canvas) instead of this.

      This is not the entry point for the view system to draw.

      Overrides:
      draw in class View
      Parameters:
      canvas - the canvas to draw content
