Stop CollapsingToolbar from collapsing after NestedScrollView runs out of content to scroll

Question

In Android, how can I get the CollapsingToolbar to stop collapsing if the NestedScrollView runs out of content to scroll? This functionality currently exists in the Contacts app on Android 5.1.1. However, in my code when the NestedScrollView stops scrolling the toolbar continues to collapse leaving gap between the two.

Answer 1

Just add

android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"

in your NestedScrollView. :)

Answer 2

Today I made a custom Behavior that does just this.

It extends AppBarLayout.ScrollingViewBehavior, so must be set on your scrolling view (NestedScrollView or whatever).

You can find it on Github, let me know if it works.

The key part is programmatically setting the AppBarLayout collapsed height based on the content height, so that when it’s over, the scrolling stops.

Answer 3

Make your NestedScrollView as

 <android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"
    app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
    android:scrollbars="none">

The CollapsingToolbarLayout will collapse and NestedScrollView contents will work as you need.
