dispatchNestedPreScroll

added in version 26.1.0
boolean dispatchNestedPreScroll (int dx, 
                int dy, 
                int[] consumed, 
                int[] offsetInWindow, 
                int type)

Dispatch one step of a nested scroll in progress before this view consumes any portion of it.

Nested pre-scroll events are to nested scroll events what touch intercept is to touch. dispatchNestedPreScroll offers an opportunity for the parent view in a nested scrolling operation to consume some or all of the scroll operation before the child view consumes it.

Parameters
dx int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels

dy int: Vertical scroll distance in pixels

consumed int: Output. If not null, consumed[0] will contain the consumed component of dx and consumed[1] the consumed dy.

offsetInWindow int: Optional. If not null, on return this will contain the offset in local view coordinates of this view from before this operation to after it completes. View implementations may use this to adjust expected input coordinate tracking.

type int: the type of input which cause this scroll event

Returns
boolean true if the parent consumed some or all of the scroll delta

dispatchNestedScroll

added in version 26.1.0
boolean dispatchNestedScroll (int dxConsumed, 
                int dyConsumed, 
                int dxUnconsumed, 
                int dyUnconsumed, 
                int[] offsetInWindow, 
                int type)

Dispatch one step of a nested scroll in progress.

Implementations of views that support nested scrolling should call this to report info about a scroll in progress to the current nested scrolling parent. If a nested scroll is not currently in progress or nested scrolling is not enabled for this view this method does nothing.

Compatible View implementations should also call dispatchNestedPreScroll before consuming a component of the scroll event themselves.

Parameters
dxConsumed int: Horizontal distance in pixels consumed by this view during this scroll step

dyConsumed int: Vertical distance in pixels consumed by this view during this scroll step

dxUnconsumed int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels not consumed by this view

dyUnconsumed int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels not consumed by this view

offsetInWindow int: Optional. If not null, on return this will contain the offset in local view coordinates of this view from before this operation to after it completes. View implementations may use this to adjust expected input coordinate tracking.

type int: the type of input which cause this scroll event

Returns
boolean true if the event was dispatched, false if it could not be dispatched.

dispatchNestedScroll

boolean dispatchNestedScroll (int dxConsumed, 
                int dyConsumed, 
                int dxUnconsumed, 
                int dyUnconsumed,

executeKeyEvent

added in version 22.1.0
boolean executeKeyEvent (KeyEvent event)

You can call this function yourself to have the scroll view perform scrolling from a key event, just as if the event had been dispatched to it by the view hierarchy.

Parameters

Returns
boolean Return true if the event was handled, else false.

fling

added in version 22.1.0
void fling (int velocityY)

fullScroll

added in version 22.1.0
boolean fullScroll (int direction)

Handles scrolling in response to a "home/end" shortcut press. This method will scroll the view to the top or bottom and give the focus to the topmost/bottommost component in the new visible area. If no component is a good candidate for focus, this scrollview reclaims the focus.

Parameters

smoothScrollBy

added in version 22.1.0
void smoothScrollBy (int dx,

Parameters
dx int: the number of pixels to scroll by on the X axis

dy int: the number of pixels to scroll by on the Y axis

smoothScrollTo

added in version 22.1.0
void smoothScrollTo (int x, 
                int y)

Like scrollTo(int, int), but scroll smoothly instead of immediately.

Parameters
x int: the position where to scroll on the X axis

y int: the position where to scroll on the Y axis

startNestedScroll

added in version 26.1.0
boolean startNestedScroll (int axes, 
                int type)

Begin a nestable scroll operation along the given axes, for the given input type.

A view starting a nested scroll promises to abide by the following contract:

The view will call startNestedScroll upon initiating a scroll operation. In the case of a touch scroll type this corresponds to the initial ACTION_DOWN. In the case of touch scrolling the nested scroll will be terminated automatically in the same manner as requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean). In the event of programmatic scrolling the caller must explicitly call stopNestedScroll(int) to indicate the end of the nested scroll.

If startNestedScroll returns true, a cooperative parent was found. If it returns false the caller may ignore the rest of this contract until the next scroll. Calling startNestedScroll while a nested scroll is already in progress will return true.

At each incremental step of the scroll the caller should invoke dispatchNestedPreScroll once it has calculated the requested scrolling delta. If it returns true the nested scrolling parent at least partially consumed the scroll and the caller should adjust the amount it scrolls by.

After applying the remainder of the scroll delta the caller should invoke dispatchNestedScroll, passing both the delta consumed and the delta unconsumed. A nested scrolling parent may treat these values differently. See onNestedScroll(View, int, int, int, int, int).

Parameters
axes int: Flags consisting of a combination of SCROLL_AXIS_HORIZONTAL and/or SCROLL_AXIS_VERTICAL.

type int: the type of input which cause this scroll event

Returns
boolean true if a cooperative parent was found and nested scrolling has been enabled for the current gesture.

Parameters
axes int

Returns
boolean
