How to use RecyclerView inside NestedScrollView

Question

I have this layout:

Answer 1

I am suggesting you to do like this. When you get Empty Data then just set Recycler View Visibility as Gone and set Empty View Visibility as Visible.

Here is Code :

<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/white"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:id="@+id/appbar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="400dp"
    android:background="@color/bg"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">

    <android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
        android:id="@+id/collapsingToolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        app:contentScrim="?attr/colorPrimary"
        app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed">

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:orientation="vertical"
            app:layout_collapseMode="parallax">

            <FrameLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/scale_30dp">

                <include layout="@layout/image_loading_progress" />

                <com.thenakedconvos.stories.utils.CircularImageView

                    android:layout_height="@dimen/scale_90dp"

Answer 2

Just put your "not scrollable" layout outside the nested scroll view

Answer 3

Use this in your recyclerView

app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"

Answer 4

<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/review_layout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">
       <ScrollView
          android:layout_width="fill_parent"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:layout_weight="1" >
    <LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">
        <RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
            </LinearLayout>
            </ScrollView>
        <include
            android:id="@+id/empty_view"
            layout="@layout/review_empty_view"
            android:visibility="gone" />
    </FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

Try this...

Answer 5

just enable nestedscrolling that will enable smooth scrollview.

RecyclerView v = (RecyclerView) findViewById(...);
v.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);

Answer 6

All you have to do is use below line in your activity class:

ViewCompat.setNestedScrollingEnabled(recycler_view, false);

its compatible for lower versions also. and if you want to give compatible to API >21 only then use;

  recycler_view.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
