Card with scrollview

[franrc]

Hi!

I must use an scrollview into the card to show all the information, but the drag action is not possible.

Do you know how can I achieve this?

Thanks!

This happens because the card view consumes all the touch events, which thus never reach the scroll view. To be honest, it sounds like a pretty bad UX to have a scrollview in your cards exactly because of the conflict; when will the user mean to scroll, and when to fling the card?

If you still want to do this, you'll have to dive into the OnTouchListeners by forking this library, and attaching a custom one that decides whether to fling the card or whether to delegate it to the scroll view that's nested in the card.

I agree with you, but the client wants to show the entire text in the card.

Thanks for your answer!

I currently have a use-case for this. Inside the card there is a vertical ListView. I want the card to capture horizontal scrolling but the ListView keeps grabbing it. I have been trying to detect horizontal swiping on the card layout and then returning false on the intercept touch method, but its clearly not the right way. How would I go about this?

I can't really help you here:

1. because I think you can never implement this in a way that works for everyone, e.g. everyone swipes differently and a horizontal swipe often has a vertical offset too; you can't possibly handle all cases.
2. because I'm convinced these gestures (scrolling vs swiping the same view) is just not going to give you a UX that's clear and understandable for all your users.

If you're really keen on doing this, the answer lies in that OnTouchListener and handling the event or passing it along based on thresholds (how far has the user swiped, ratio of vertical to horizontal movement, speed of the swipe/scroll). I can't help you with the exact parameters.
