I've got a layout with some views, from which one is an EditText. The layout easily fits on one page, BUT, when the soft keyboard is out, the layout doesn't scroll. Here's a recap of my layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@drawable/background" >
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/ScrollView1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<CheckBox/>
<TextView/>
<LinearLayout>
<EditText>
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
</LinearLayout>
<TextView/>
<LinearLayout>
<Spinner/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<Button
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
And in my manifest I have declared the attribute:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateHidden"
Does anyone know why it doesn't work and how to make sure it does work?
Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem and I checked my activity in the manifest, and the reason why it wasn't working is because I didn't use this property:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
Now it works great and no need to do additional anchors.
Okay, apparently the ScrollView's android:layout_height
mustn't be set to wrap_content
. I set it to match_parent
and set the android:layout_above
to the button on the bottom of the page.
Don't ask me why, but this fixed the issue.
In my case, nothing of the above worked.
I had item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
in my theme. And it was fixed by setting android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
in the parent layout where is my scrollview.
Add android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize"
to your tag in AndroidManifest.xml file. This will cause the screen to be resized to the left over space after the soft keyboard is shown. So, you will be able to scroll easily.
