Set Viewpager height inside Scrollview in android

Gayathri picture Gayathri · Nov 15, 2013 · Viewed 11.4k times · Source

I have to show a viewpager (An image and text below the image in pager row) inside a scrollview. I'm downloading the image, text from web and showing in pager rows. I wrapped viewpager inside a srollview to support the landscape mode too.

 <com.xxx.myapp.android.ui.CustomScrollView
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:fadingEdge="none"
    android:fillViewport="true"
    android:gravity="center">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
            android:id="@+id/viewPager"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="800dp"
            android:layout_gravity="top"
            android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />  
    </LinearLayout>
</com.xxx.myapp.android.ui.CustomScrollView> 

And here is CustomScrollView. The problem is How can I set the view pager height based on its children height so that I can scroll the screen till the view pager item ends only. If I set view pager height to wrapcontent, nothing is showing in viewpager. If I set some 800dp then I can see the pager items but there is unnecessary scrolling in the screen. I dont want my scrollview to be scrolled beyond the pager childrens height. Please help me.

To fix the height of the viewpager we can customize the viewpager class.

public class WrapContentViewPager extends ViewPager {

private int mCurrentPagePosition = 0;

public WrapContentViewPager(Context context) {
    super(context);
}

public WrapContentViewPager(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    try {
        View child = getChildAt(mCurrentPagePosition);
        if (child != null) {
            child.measure(widthMeasureSpec, MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(0, MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED));
            int h = child.getMeasuredHeight();
            heightMeasureSpec = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(h, MeasureSpec.EXACTLY);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
}

public void reMeasureCurrentPage(int position) {
    mCurrentPagePosition = position;
    requestLayout();
}
}

where this reMeasureCurrentPage should be called at viewpager onPageSelected callback.and CustomScrollView is the parent view.
