android:staggergridlayout while moving up shuffles

Question

I am using staggered grid layout. the following is the code:

StaggeredGridLayoutManager glm= new StaggeredGridLayoutManager(2, StaggeredGridLayoutManager.VERTICAL);
glm.setGapStrategy(StaggeredGridLayoutManager.GAP_HANDLING_NONE);

I am using GAP_HANDLING_NONE to avoid images swapping from one column to other.

When I start the app, the beginning of the screen is:

After scrolling down to bottom and when I return to the top. randomly the following three images show the layout (it keeps varying)

Answer 1

Staggered grids are likely to have gaps at the edges of the layout. To avoid these gaps, StaggeredGridLayoutManager can offset spans independently or move items between spans. You can control this behavior via setGapStrategy(int):

StaggeredGridLayoutManager sGrid = new StaggeredGridLayoutManager(2, StaggeredGridLayoutManager.VERTICAL);
sGrid.setGapStrategy(StaggeredGridLayoutManager.GAP_HANDLING_MOVE_ITEMS_BETWEEN_SPANS);

I hope this will help a buddy.
