Can I have onScrollListener for a ScrollView?
Every instance of View calls getViewTreeObserver()
. Now when holding an instance of ViewTreeObserver
, you can add an OnScrollChangedListener()
to it using the method addOnScrollChangedListener()
.
You can see more information about this class here.
It lets you be aware of every scrolling event - but without the coordinates. You can get them by using getScrollY()
or getScrollX()
from within the listener though.
scrollView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnScrollChangedListener(new OnScrollChangedListener() { @Override public void onScrollChanged() { int scrollY = rootScrollView.getScrollY(); // For ScrollView int scrollX = rootScrollView.getScrollX(); // For HorizontalScrollView // DO SOMETHING WITH THE SCROLL COORDINATES }});
This might be very useful.Use NestedScrollView
instead of ScrollView
. Support Library 23.1 introduced an OnScrollChangeListener
to NestedScrollView
.So you can do something like this.
myScrollView.setOnScrollChangeListener(new NestedScrollView.OnScrollChangeListener() { @Override public void onScrollChange(NestedScrollView v, int scrollX, int scrollY, int oldScrollX, int oldScrollY) { Log.d("ScrollView","scrollX_"+scrollX+"_scrollY_"+scrollY+"_oldScrollX_"+oldScrollX+"_oldScrollY_"+oldScrollY); //Do something } });
Here's a derived HorizontalScrollView I wrote to handle notifications about scrolling and scroll ending. It properly handles when a user has stopped actively scrolling and when it fully decelerates after a user lets go:
public class ObservableHorizontalScrollView extends HorizontalScrollView { public interface OnScrollListener { public void onScrollChanged(ObservableHorizontalScrollView scrollView, int x, int y, int oldX, int oldY); public void onEndScroll(ObservableHorizontalScrollView scrollView); } private boolean mIsScrolling; private boolean mIsTouching; private Runnable mScrollingRunnable; private OnScrollListener mOnScrollListener; public ObservableHorizontalScrollView(Context context) { this(context, null, 0); } public ObservableHorizontalScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) { this(context, attrs, 0); } public ObservableHorizontalScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) { super(context, attrs, defStyle); } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { int action = ev.getAction(); if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) { mIsTouching = true; mIsScrolling = true; } else if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP || action == MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL) { if (mIsTouching && !mIsScrolling) { if (mOnScrollListener != null) { mOnScrollListener.onEndScroll(this); } } mIsTouching = false; } return super.onTouchEvent(ev); } @Override protected void onScrollChanged(int x, int y, int oldX, int oldY) { super.onScrollChanged(x, y, oldX, oldY); if (Math.abs(oldX - x) > 0) { if (mScrollingRunnable != null) { removeCallbacks(mScrollingRunnable); } mScrollingRunnable = new Runnable() { public void run() { if (mIsScrolling && !mIsTouching) { if (mOnScrollListener != null) { mOnScrollListener.onEndScroll(ObservableHorizontalScrollView.this); } } mIsScrolling = false; mScrollingRunnable = null; } }; postDelayed(mScrollingRunnable, 200); } if (mOnScrollListener != null) { mOnScrollListener.onScrollChanged(this, x, y, oldX, oldY); } } public OnScrollListener getOnScrollListener() { return mOnScrollListener; } public void setOnScrollListener(OnScrollListener mOnEndScrollListener) { this.mOnScrollListener = mOnEndScrollListener; }}
