have an edittext inside scrollview. (and there are other views inside scrollview above edittext.)
When user presses the edittext, keyboard becames visible and the visible area of the scrollview becames small. Because of that edittext does not shown in the screen. (it does not scroll the scrollview so that edit text will be shown.)
After user presses any key in the keyboard, scrollview scrolls so that edittext becames visible again.
how can i force the scrollview to scroll so that edittext will be visible before user presses on the keyboard?
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingBottom="0dip"
android:paddingLeft="0dip"
android:paddingRight="0dip"
android:paddingTop="0dip" >
<include
layout="@layout/trade_row_item_3cell" />
<include
android:id="@+id/rowQuantity"
layout="@layout/trade_quantity_selection_row_layout" />
<include
layout="@layout/trade_row_item_3cell" />
<include
layout="@layout/trade_price_selection_et_row_layout" />
<include
layout="@layout/trade_row_item_3cell" />
<include
layout="@layout/trade_row_item_3cell" />
<Button
style="@style/CustomButtonText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_weight="0" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<include
layout="@layout/trade_bottom_view" />
Here is the layout(trade_quantity_selection_row_layout) which contains the edittext
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="50dip"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:background="@android:drawable/list_selector_background">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/tvLeft"
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:paddingLeft="10dip"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
<EditText
android:id="@+id/etRight"
android:paddingLeft="10dip"
android:background="@null"
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:inputType="number"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/ivRight"
android:src="@drawable/proceed"
android:paddingRight="10dip"
android:layout_weight="0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
trade_row_item_3cell layout contains linearlayout with edittexts.
First get the x/y coordinates of your Edittext using View.getLocationOnScreen (int[] location) ( After the method returns, the array contains the x and y location in that order)
OR
This links helps you find the views coordinates - https://stackoverflow.com/a/2761184/28557
Then
scrollView.scrollTo(x, y);
hope this helps
