Use View#getHitRect instead of View#getDrawingRect on the view you're testing. You can use View#getDrawingRect on the ScrollView instead of calculating explicitly.

Code from View#getDrawingRect:

 public void getDrawingRect(Rect outRect) {
        outRect.left = mScrollX;
        outRect.top = mScrollY;
        outRect.right = mScrollX + (mRight - mLeft);
        outRect.bottom = mScrollY + (mBottom - mTop);
 }

Code from View#getHitRect:

public void getHitRect(Rect outRect) {
        outRect.set(mLeft, mTop, mRight, mBottom);
}
