  1. POTextView is not scrolling vertically unless there's a link in it
    text
    copied!<p>I've enabled vertical scrolling in my TextView that's inside a ScrollView (for the purposes of leaving other content on top when scrolling horizontally) - however vertical scrolling only works when there's a link in TextView's data. If there's no url/email/etc, then vertical scrolling does not work.</p> <p>When it does work, the vertical scrollbar also reports the wrong scroll position - having scrolled 100% in the view, it'll go to max 5% of the screen.</p> <p>Here's the problematic xml layout in question that gives this odd behavior, and <strong>newsreader_message</strong> is the one I'd like to be able to scroll properly:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/LinearLayout1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" &gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/newsreader_subjectdate" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ellipsize="marquee" android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:marqueeRepeatLimit="1" android:scrollHorizontally="true" android:text="" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/newsreader_fromto" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ellipsize="marquee" android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:marqueeRepeatLimit="1" android:scrollHorizontally="true" android:text="" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" /&gt; &lt;ScrollView android:id="@+id/scrollView1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" &gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/newsreader_message" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:autoLink="web|email" android:contentDescription="News post content" android:keepScreenOn="true" android:paddingRight="10dp" android:paddingTop="6dp" android:scrollHorizontally="true" android:scrollbars="horizontal|vertical" android:text="" android:textSize="11.5sp" android:typeface="monospace" /&gt; &lt;/ScrollView&gt; </code></pre> <p></p> <p>As an additional detail, the marquees don't scroll either when vertical scrolling is broken (and marquees need to scroll).</p>
