Disable ScrollView action

Question

In my application i've a line for increasing the width of a widget(by dragging the line to right/left) and i've the ScrollView enabled in the same activity. I need to disable the scroll view action when the user touches the line and when user releases, it should be enabled. The ScrollView should be in visible state but the action of the scroll view should be disabled. Please help me in solving this problem. I've tried with these but none of them is working.

scroll.setEnabled(false); 
scroll.setFocusable(false); 
scroll.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false); 
scroll.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(false);

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

This might be a bit late but I ran into the same problem so my solution is similar to above, had to disable the OnTouchListener as follows:

// Get the ScrollView
final ScrollView myScroll = (ScrollView) findViewById(R.id.display_scrollview);


// Disable Scrolling by setting up an OnTouchListener to do nothing
myScroll.setOnTouchListener( new OnTouchListener(){ 
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        return true; 
    }
});


// Enable Scrolling by removing the OnTouchListner
tvDisplayScroll.setOnTouchListener(null);
