Scroll-able along with other items, outside it's container about sortabletableview

[ISchwarz23]

Hi Joe,

first I would like to be sure, that I understood you correctly. You want to use the TableView together with other views in a LinearLayout. (Some views before the TableView and some views after.) You don't want the TableView to scroll, but to show it's full content. Therefore you have your LinearLayout inside a ScrollView. Is this all correct?

Best regards,
Ingo

Yes, that's correct. Spot on. More like a Listview that scrolls along with other elements of the page. I have placed other views in the header LinearLayout and some footer views in another Layout at the bottom. If I give the TableView a fixed height then it performs well and scrolls along with other items. But fixed height is definitely not the right approach.

Hi Joe,

as you said fixed size is working for this approach. As the TableView is using an ListView internally you have the known issues for WRAP_CONTENT so you should not do this.
So if you really want to have the described UI (also if I would recommend to re-think this, as it is not optimal for small screens) I would calculate the table height using the number of rows in the TableView and set this value as fixed size.
Hope this helps you.
