LayoutManager

abstract class LayoutManager
kotlin.Any
   ↳ androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView.LayoutManager

A LayoutManager is responsible for measuring and positioning item views within a RecyclerView as well as determining the policy for when to recycle item views that are no longer visible to the user. By changing the LayoutManager a RecyclerView can be used to implement a standard vertically scrolling list, a uniform grid, staggered grids, horizontally scrolling collections and more. Several stock layout managers are provided for general use.

If the LayoutManager specifies a default constructor or one with the signature (Context, AttributeSet, int, int), RecyclerView will instantiate and set the LayoutManager when being inflated. Most used properties can be then obtained from getProperties(Context, AttributeSet, int, int). In case a LayoutManager specifies both constructors, the non-default constructor will take precedence.

A LayoutManager is responsible for measuring and positioning item views within a RecyclerView as well as determining the policy for when to recycle item views that are no longer visible to the user. By changing the LayoutManager a RecyclerView can be used to implement a standard vertically scrolling list, a uniform grid, staggered grids, horizontally scrolling collections and more. Several stock layout managers are provided for general use.

If the LayoutManager specifies a default constructor or one with the signature (Context, AttributeSet, int, int), RecyclerView will instantiate and set the LayoutManager when being inflated.

If item prefetch is enabled, this method is called in between traversals to gather which positions the LayoutManager will soon need, given upcoming movement in subsequent traversals.

The LayoutManager should call LayoutPrefetchRegistry#addPosition(int, int) for each item to be prepared, and these positions will have their ViewHolders created and bound, if there is sufficient time available, in advance of being needed by a scroll or layout.

Parameters
dx Int: X movement component.
dy Int: Y movement component.
state Int: State of RecyclerView
layoutPrefetchRegistry Int: PrefetchRegistry to add prefetch entries into.

collectInitialPrefetchPositions

Gather all positions from the LayoutManager to be prefetched in preperation for its RecyclerView to come on screen, due to the movement of another, containing RecyclerView.

This method is only called when a RecyclerView is nested in another RecyclerView.

If item prefetch is enabled for this LayoutManager, as well in another containing LayoutManager, this method is called in between draw traversals to gather which positions this LayoutManager will first need, once it appears on the screen.

For example, if this LayoutManager represents a horizontally scrolling list within a vertically scrolling LayoutManager, this method would be called when the horizontal list is about to come onscreen.

The LayoutManager should call LayoutPrefetchRegistry#addPosition(int, int) for each item to be prepared, and these positions will have their ViewHolders created and bound, if there is sufficient time available, in advance of being needed by a scroll or layout.

Parameters
adapterItemCount Int: number of items in the associated adapter.

detachAndScrapView

open fun detachAndScrapView(@NonNull child: View, @NonNull recycler: RecyclerView.Recycler): Unit

Detach a child view and add it to a Recycler's scrap heap.

recycler Int: Recycler to deposit the new scrap view into

detachView

open fun detachView(@NonNull child: View): Unit

Temporarily detach a child view.

LayoutManagers may want to perform a lightweight detach operation to rearrange views currently attached to the RecyclerView. Generally LayoutManager implementations will want to use detachAndScrapView(android.view.View, RecyclerView.Recycler) so that the detached view may be rebound and reused.

If a LayoutManager uses this method to detach a view, it must reattach or fully remove the detached view before the LayoutManager entry point method called by RecyclerView returns.

Parameters
child View: Child to detach

detachViewAt

open fun detachViewAt(index: Int): Unit

Temporarily detach a child view.

LayoutManagers may want to perform a lightweight detach operation to rearrange views currently attached to the RecyclerView. Generally LayoutManager implementations will want to use detachAndScrapView(android.view.View, RecyclerView.Recycler) so that the detached view may be rebound and reused.

If a LayoutManager uses this method to detach a view, it must reattach or fully remove the detached view before the LayoutManager entry point method called by RecyclerView returns.

Parameters
index Int: Index of the child to detach

endAnimation

open fun endAnimation(view: View!): Unit

Ends all animations on the view created by the ItemAnimator.

Parameters
view View!: The View for which the animations should be ended.

Traverses the ancestors of the given view and returns the item view that contains it and also a direct child of the LayoutManager.

Note that this method may return null if the view is a child of the RecyclerView but not a child of the LayoutManager (e.g. running a disappear animation).

Parameters
view View: The view that is a descendant of the LayoutManager.
Return
View?: The direct child of the LayoutManager which contains the given view or null if the provided view is not a descendant of this LayoutManager.

findViewByPosition

@Nullable open fun findViewByPosition(position: Int): View?

This method traverses each child since it has no information about child order. Override this method to improve performance if your LayoutManager keeps data about child views.

If a view is ignored via ignoreView(View), it is also ignored by this method.

Parameters
position Int: Position of the item in adapter
Return
View?: The child view that represents the given position or null if the position is not laid out

generateDefaultLayoutParams

Return
RecyclerView.LayoutParams!: A new LayoutParams for a child view

generateLayoutParams

open fun generateLayoutParams(lp: LayoutParams!): RecyclerView.LayoutParams!

Create a LayoutParams object suitable for this LayoutManager, copying relevant values from the supplied LayoutParams object if possible.

Important: if you use your own custom LayoutParams type you must also override checkLayoutParams(LayoutParams), generateLayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams) and generateLayoutParams(android.content.Context, android.util.AttributeSet).

Parameters
lp LayoutParams!: Source LayoutParams object to copy values from
Return
RecyclerView.LayoutParams!: a new LayoutParams object

generateLayoutParams

open fun generateLayoutParams(c: Context!, attrs: AttributeSet!): RecyclerView.LayoutParams!

ignoreView

open fun ignoreView(@NonNull view: View): Unit

Flags a view so that it will not be scrapped or recycled.

Scope of ignoring a child is strictly restricted to position tracking, scrapping and recyling. Methods like removeAndRecycleAllViews(Recycler) will ignore the child whereas removeAllViews() or offsetChildrenHorizontal(int) will not ignore the child.

Before this child can be recycled again, you have to call stopIgnoringView(View).

You can call this method only if your LayoutManger is in onLayout or onScroll callback.

Parameters
view View: View to ignore.

isAttachedToWindow

open fun isAttachedToWindow(): Boolean

Returns whether LayoutManager is currently attached to a RecyclerView which is attached to a window.

Return
Boolean: True if this LayoutManager is controlling a RecyclerView and the RecyclerView is attached to window.

isAutoMeasureEnabled

open fun isAutoMeasureEnabled(): Boolean

Returns whether the measuring pass of layout should use the AutoMeasure mechanism of RecyclerView or if it should be done by the LayoutManager's implementation of LayoutManager#onMeasure(Recycler, State, int, int).

This method returns false by default (it actually returns the value passed to the deprecated setAutoMeasureEnabled(boolean)) and should be overridden to return true if a LayoutManager wants to be auto measured by the RecyclerView.

If this method is overridden to return true, LayoutManager#onMeasure(Recycler, State, int, int) should not be overridden.

AutoMeasure is a RecyclerView mechanism that handles the measuring pass of layout in a simple and contract satisfying way, including the wrapping of children laid out by LayoutManager. Simply put, it handles wrapping children by calling LayoutManager#onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) during a call to RecyclerView#onMeasure(int, int), and then calculating desired dimensions based on children's dimensions and positions. It does this while supporting all existing animation capabilities of the RecyclerView.

More specifically:

  1. When RecyclerView#onMeasure(int, int) is called, if the provided measure specs both have a mode of View.MeasureSpec#EXACTLY, RecyclerView will set its measured dimensions accordingly and return, allowing layout to continue as normal (Actually, RecyclerView will call LayoutManager#onMeasure(Recycler, State, int, int) for backwards compatibility reasons but it should not be overridden if AutoMeasure is being used).
  2. If one of the layout specs is not EXACT, the RecyclerView will start the layout process. It will first process all pending Adapter updates and then decide whether to run a predictive layout. If it decides to do so, it will first call onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) with State#isPreLayout() set to true. At this stage, getWidth() and getHeight() will still return the width and height of the RecyclerView as of the last layout calculation.

    After handling the predictive case, RecyclerView will call onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) with State#isMeasuring() set to true and State#isPreLayout() set to false. The LayoutManager can access the measurement specs via getHeight(), getHeightMode(), getWidth() and getWidthMode().

  3. After the layout calculation, RecyclerView sets the measured width & height by calculating the bounding box for the children (+ RecyclerView's padding). The LayoutManagers can override setMeasuredDimension(Rect, int, int) to choose different values. For instance, GridLayoutManager overrides this value to handle the case where if it is vertical and has 3 columns but only 2 items, it should still measure its width to fit 3 items, not 2.
  4. Any following calls to RecyclerView#onMeasure(int, int) will run onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) with State#isMeasuring() set to true and State#isPreLayout() set to false. RecyclerView will take care of which views are actually added / removed / moved / changed for animations so that the LayoutManager should not worry about them and handle each onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) call as if it is the last one.
  5. When measure is complete and RecyclerView's onLayout(boolean, int, int, int, int) method is called, RecyclerView checks whether it already did layout calculations during the measure pass and if so, it re-uses that information. It may still decide to call onLayoutChildren(Recycler, State) if the last measure spec was different from the final dimensions or adapter contents have changed between the measure call and the layout call.
  6. Finally, animations are calculated and run as usual.
Return
Boolean: True if the measuring pass of layout should use the AutoMeasure mechanism of RecyclerView or False if it should be done by the LayoutManager's implementation of LayoutManager#onMeasure(Recycler, State, int, int).

state RecyclerView.Recycler: The current state of RecyclerView
Return
Boolean: True if layout is hierarchical.

isMeasurementCacheEnabled

open fun isMeasurementCacheEnabled(): Boolean

In addition to the View Framework's measurement cache, RecyclerView uses its own additional measurement cache for its children to avoid re-measuring them when not necessary. It is on by default but it can be turned off via setMeasurementCacheEnabled(boolean).

Return
Boolean: True if measurement cache is enabled, false otherwise.

isSmoothScrolling

open fun isSmoothScrolling(): Boolean
Return
Boolean: true if RecyclerView is currently in the state of smooth scrolling.

isViewPartiallyVisible

open fun isViewPartiallyVisible(@NonNull child: View, completelyVisible: Boolean, acceptEndPointInclusion: Boolean): Boolean

Returns whether the given child view is partially or fully visible within the padded bounded area of RecyclerView, depending on the input parameters. A view is partially visible if it has non-zero overlap with RV's padded bounded area. If acceptEndPointInclusion flag is set to true, it's also considered partially visible if it's located outside RV's bounds and it's hitting either RV's start or end bounds.

Parameters
child View: The child view to be examined.
completelyVisible View: If true, the method returns true if and only if the child is completely visible. If false, the method returns true if and only if the child is only partially visible (that is it will return false if the child is either completely visible or out of RV's bounds).
acceptEndPointInclusion View: If the view's endpoint intersection with RV's start of end bounds is enough to consider it partially visible, false otherwise.
Return
Boolean: True if the given child is partially or fully visible, false otherwise.

layoutDecorated

open fun layoutDecorated(@NonNull child: View, left: Int, top: Int, right: Int, bottom: Int): Unit

Lay out the given child view within the RecyclerView using coordinates that include any current ItemDecorations.

Lay out the given child view within the RecyclerView using coordinates that include any current ItemDecorations and margins.

LayoutManagers should prefer working in sizes and coordinates that include item decoration insets whenever possible. This allows the LayoutManager to effectively ignore decoration insets within measurement and layout code. See the following methods:

Parameters
child View: Child to lay out
left View: Left edge, with item decoration insets and left margin included
top View: Top edge, with item decoration insets and top margin included
right View: Right edge, with item decoration insets and right margin included

Called if the RecyclerView this LayoutManager is bound to has a different adapter set via RecyclerView#setAdapter(Adapter) or RecyclerView#swapAdapter(Adapter, boolean). The LayoutManager may use this opportunity to clear caches and configure state such that it can relayout appropriately with the new data and potentially new view types.

The default implementation removes all currently attached views.

Parameters
oldAdapter RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder!>?: The previous adapter instance. Will be null if there was previously no adapter.
newAdapter RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder!>?: The new adapter instance. Might be null if setAdapter(RecyclerView.Adapter) is called with null.

onAddFocusables

open fun onAddFocusables(@NonNull recyclerView: RecyclerView, @NonNull views: ArrayList<View!>, direction: Int, focusableMode: Int): Boolean

Called to populate focusable views within the RecyclerView.
