I have different table rows, each of it contains some information text which should not be clickable and not selectable. But when I run this in the emulator, the text is always clickable.
That means, when I click on any text block, its color changes to a dark grey. I don't want it to change. I want it to do nothing.
Surely, I could set the dark grey to the text color so the user doesn't see that he clicks anything, but this is not what I want.
I already tried different attributes as you can see in the example, but nothings help. Moreover, what do I actually have to set not clickable, the TableRow or the TextView inside the TableRow?
Here is an example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
>
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/scrollView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal">
<TableLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:stretchColumns="*"
android:clickable="false">
<TableRow
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:background="#777777"
android:clickable="false">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/heading"
android:text="This is the cool heading"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:paddingLeft="5sp"
android:paddingRight="5sp"
android:paddingTop="2sp"
android:paddingBottom="2sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:clickable="false"
/>
</TableRow>
<TableRow
android:clickable="false"
android:linksClickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false">
<TextView
android:text="This is example text. It should not be clickable, but it is."
android:textSize="14sp"
android:paddingLeft="5sp"
android:paddingRight="5sp"
android:paddingTop="2sp"
android:paddingBottom="2sp"
android:scrollHorizontally="false"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:linksClickable="false"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
android:layout_width="0sp"
/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
I found the solution, when I add android:longClickable="false"
to the TextView, it works. And I only need those two settings in TextView in all:
android:longClickable="false"
android:clickable="false"
Settings in TableRow are not needed.
