Is there a way to disable Android ListView animation?

Question

When we drag a ListView to the end or to the top, we can always drag it a little further and it will show a blank background, then when we release it the ListView will bounce back. It's a default animation effect of ListView.

I would like to disable this animation effect.

Answer 1

This may work. Create a new class that contains the following.

import android.view.View;

public class OverScrollDisabler
{
    public static void disableOverScroll(View view)
    {
        view.setOverScrollMode(View.OVER_SCROLL_NEVER);
    }
}

Then within your code,

if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 9)
{
    OverScrollDisabler.disableOverScroll(myView);
}

In your xml add the attribute

android:overScrollMode="never"
