Android: Total height of ScrollView

Question

I have a custom ScrollView (extended android.widget.ScrollView) which I use in my layout. I want to measure the total height of the contents of this scrollview. getHeight()

Answer 1

See the source of ScrollView. Unfortunately, this method is private, but you could copy it into your own code. Note that other answers don't take padding into account

private int getScrollRange() {
    int scrollRange = 0;
    if (getChildCount() > 0) {
        View child = getChildAt(0);
        scrollRange = Math.max(0,
                child.getHeight() - (getHeight() - mPaddingBottom - mPaddingTop));
    }
    return scrollRange;
}

Answer 2

A ScrollView always has 1 child. All you need to do is get the height of the child to determine the total height:

int totalHeight = scrollView.getChildAt(0).getHeight();
