How to use ScrollView in Android?

Just make the top-level layout a ScrollView:

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fillViewport="true">

    <TableLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"

    </TableLayout>
</ScrollView>

How to use ScrollView inside a RecyclerView in android Studio

You can't add ScrollView inside a TextView. Instead you can apply scrolling feature to a TextView. To apply scrolling behaviour do the following.

 <TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Hyderabad"
    android:id="@+id/sample"
    android:layout_gravity="right"
    android:textSize="30sp"
    android:maxLines="40"
    android:scrollbars="vertical"/>

In Java code use the following

TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.sample);
tv.setText("Long long ..................add more text here........text");
tv.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());

how to use scrollview in layout with toolbar and bottomnavigationview?

1. There needs to be only one layout inside ScrollView.
2. You do not need to put ScrollView inside ScrollView.
   You have added the include tag inside the ScrollView and your
   design.xml also has ScrollView.
3. I would not use android:fillViewport tag inside ScrollView, instead
   use properties related to relative layout.

Rest of the things don't seem too difficult to figure out.

Using a ScrollView to Design a Registration Activity

I assume you do want the back button to navigate back to some other screen from the Registration screen? In case there are multiple fragments already that you use with your activity then you can use a ScrollView inside that fragment. However if this is only something like a demo app where you need to add those fields inside activity directly and show a demo of the UI of this Registration screen only to someone, then you might consider just adding a ScrollView in your activity and putting all the Views inside it.

Is it possible to put a ConstraintLayout inside a ScrollView?

There was a bug with ConstraintLayout inside ScrollViews and it has been fixed. google has fixed the bug in Android Studio 2.2 Preview 2 (constraintlayout 1.0.0-alpha2).

Check this link for new update (Preview 2): works properly inside ScrollView and RecycleView

Solution 1:

The solution was to use android:fillViewport="true" on the
ScrollView

Solution 2:

Use NestedScrollView instead of ScrollView with android:fillViewport="true"

Edit - 09/16/20:

Currently, it is more usual to use the ScrollView with the ConstraintLayout height set to wrap_content, it works very well, don't forget the fillViewPort and that both Scroll and Nested support only one direct child.

Android list view inside a scroll view

For any Child view to scroll inside a ScrollView. Anything like ListView, RecyclerView, etc. You just have to replace ScrollView with androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView in your current xml and then magic happens.

Below is a sample xml code :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:padding="16dp"
        android:paddingBottom="20dp">

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Recycler View inside a Scroll View"
            android:textColor="@color/black"
            android:textSize="@dimen/_20sp"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
            android:text="Below is a Recycler View as an example."
            android:textSize="16sp" />

        <androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
            app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/et_damaged_qty" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
            android:text="This textview automatically goes below the Recycler View."
            android:textSize="16sp" />
    </androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat>
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>

Now you can get rid of all the ugly hacks you did to get around with nested scrolling.
