Disable scrolling in listview

Question

I have a list view and depending on some logic I want to temporary disable the scrolling. view.setOnScrollListener(null); doesn't helps me I guess I need to write some code, can someone give me a hist or some snippet ?

Thanks

Answer 1

Another option without creating a new custom ListView would be to attach an onTouchListener to your ListView and return true in the onTouch() callback if the motion event action is ACTION_MOVE.

listView.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {      public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {         return (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE);     } }); 

Answer 2

In your CustomListView:

@Override public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev){    if(ev.getAction()==MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE)       return true;    return super.dispatchTouchEvent(ev); } 

Then ListView will react to clicks, but will not change scroll position.
