Is there a way to programmatically scroll a scroll view to a specific edit text?

Question

private final void focusOnView(){
        your_scrollview.post(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                your_scrollview.scrollTo(0, your_EditBox.getBottom());
            }
        });
    }

The answer of Sherif elKhatib can be greatly improved, if you want to scroll the view to the center of the scroll view. This reusable method smooth scrolls the view to the visible center of a HorizontalScrollView.

private final void focusOnView(final HorizontalScrollView scroll, final View view) {
    new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            int vLeft = view.getLeft();
            int vRight = view.getRight();
            int sWidth = scroll.getWidth();
            scroll.smoothScrollTo(((vLeft + vRight - sWidth) / 2), 0);
        }
    });
}

For a vertical ScrollView use

...
int vTop = view.getTop();
int vBottom = view.getBottom();
int sHeight = scroll.getBottom();
scroll.smoothScrollTo(((vTop + vBottom - sHeight) / 2), 0);
...

This works well for me :

  targetView.getParent().requestChildFocus(targetView,targetView);

public void RequestChildFocus (View child, View focused)

child - The child of this ViewParent that wants focus. This view will contain the focused view. It is not necessarily the view that actually has focus.

focused - The view that is a descendant of child that actually has focus

In my opinion the best way to scroll to a given rectangle is via View.requestRectangleOnScreen(Rect, Boolean). You should call it on a View you want to scroll to and pass a local rectangle you want to be visible on the screen. The second parameter should be false for smooth scrolling and true for immediate scrolling.

final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, view.getWidth(), view.getHeight());
view.requestRectangleOnScreen(rect, false);
