    <p>I'm having issues with a Fragment consisting of a ScrollView containing a LinearLayout. I'm trying to create an effect where the LinearLayout has a white background and looks like a piece of paper scrolling on a coloured background. The way that I'm trying to achieve this is by having the ScrollView occupy the full space of the fragment and then the LinearLayout inside has <code>android:layout_margin="16dp"</code> to create the space around the "paper".</p> <p>This way, the scroll bar of the ScrollView appears in the coloured background area, the margin at the top scrolls away along with the content and the margin at the bottom only scrolls in when one reaches the end.</p> <p>Unfortunately in this configuration the ScrollView won't scroll all the way to the end and in fact cuts off a very small amount of the text at the bottom. I suspect that the ScrollView isn't taking into account its child's margins in its vertical scrolling distance. To solve this I've wrapped the LinearLayout in a FrameLayout which solves the issue, but seems superfluous. Any pointers on how to eliminate this unneeded container would be appreciated.</p> <p>Note: setting <code>android:padding="16dp"</code> on the ScrollView and scrapping the margins doesn't have the desired effect, as then the padding appears on all four edges continuously, regardless of scroll position.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" tools:context=".ArticleFragment" &gt; &lt;!-- This FrameLayout exists purely to force the outer ScrollView to respect the margins of the LinearLayout --&gt; &lt;FrameLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"&gt; &lt;LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="vertical" android:padding="10dp" android:layout_margin="16dp" android:background="@color/page_background" &gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/article_title" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" android:textIsSelectable="true" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/article_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textIsSelectable="true" /&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; &lt;/FrameLayout&gt; &lt;/ScrollView&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COTried setting `android:layout_height="fill_parent"` to the `ScrollView`?

    2. CO@AdilSoomro Yes, no joy. The size of the ScrollView isn't really an issue - it fills the space available to it appropriately. It's the area of scrolling that it provides - it doesn't allow scrolling to the very end of its contents when its immediate child has a margin. I believe the issue is caused by it not taking its child's margin into account when calculating the scrolling area.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
