How to disable touch events in SwipeRefreshLayout?

Question

I use SwipeRefreshLayout by Google. and I have a few questions.

1. how to block for touch screen at the time when it is active onRefresh()?

2. how to make progress on the spinning center of the screen instead of the top, during the update?

   swipeLayout = (SwipeRefreshLayout) v.findViewById(R.id.swipe_status_info);
   swipeLayout.setColorSchemeColors(Color.RED, Color.GREEN, Color.BLUE, Color.CYAN);
   swipeLayout.setOnRefreshListener(this);
   
   
   @Override
   public void onRefresh() {
       clearTable(holidayTable);
       clearTable(cityayTable);
       setData();
   }

1. If you want to block some view (blockedView) from getting a touch event during the refresh you can consume that event in the OnTouchListener:

   @Override
   public void onRefresh() {
       clearTable(holidayTable);
       clearTable(cityayTable);
       setData();
       refreshing = true;
   }
   ...
   
   blockedView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
       @Override
       public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
           //consuming the touch
           if (refreshing) return true;
           //letting the touch propagate
           else return false;
       }
   });
   

2. set the desired offset in pixels using this method:

   swipeLayout.setProgressViewOffset(true, 0, offset);
