Items Sometimes Snap To Center while Scrolling about ecogallery

[falnatsheh]

I'm using EcoGallery in my app (Motion) and actually I recently saw an issue when I set text view from EcoGallery onItemSelected, the gallery will snap to the center (if I comment the code it works fine). Do you do any work onItemSelected? I want to know if you are seeing the same behavior so I could try to fix it.

I can verify that the issue occurs (or occured as of several months ago) with onItemSelected

Take a look at my fork: https://github.com/Gryzor/TimelineGallerySample

Some devices (notably API level 16 and 17) issue a requestLayout when any of the views are changed (so when the library does a SnapToCenter a relayout is issued, this causes the gallery to jump and snap immediately).

Make sure you're using (look at the sample) a special ImageView for your gallery items that don't do anything on requestLayout.

@Gryzor Makes sense, are you still maintaining your fork?
I'm evaluating if I should continue support the library since I'm changing my app design and will no longer need Gallery view and it would be helpful to point developers to maintainable fork.

@falnatsheh Nah, I just want the gallery to disappear from the face of the planet ;) I have used it for a while until I managed to make the ViewPager work the way I wanted. (Took me a while tho').

I don't mind looking at Pull Requests and maintaining it, but I can't make any "implement me this feature" promises. I just made the gallery "work" but there's no way to fix that hacky thing without a complete rewrite (which nobody seems interested in doing given that the 'alternatives' seem to be 'good enough').
