NestedScrollingParent

public interface NestedScrollingParent

android.support.v4.view.NestedScrollingParent
Known Indirect Subclasses


This interface should be implemented by ViewGroup subclasses that wish to support scrolling operations delegated by a nested child view.

Classes implementing this interface should create a final instance of a NestedScrollingParentHelper as a field and delegate any View or ViewGroup methods to the NestedScrollingParentHelper methods of the same signature.

Views invoking nested scrolling functionality should always do so from the relevant ViewCompat, ViewGroupCompat or ViewParentCompat compatibility shim static methods. This ensures interoperability with nested scrolling views on Android 5.0 Lollipop and newer.

Public methods

getNestedScrollAxes

added in version 22.1.0
int getNestedScrollAxes ()

Return the current axes of nested scrolling for this NestedScrollingParent.

A NestedScrollingParent returning something other than SCROLL_AXIS_NONE is currently acting as a nested scrolling parent for one or more descendant views in the hierarchy.

Returns
int Flags indicating the current axes of nested scrolling

onNestedFling

added in version 22.1.0
boolean onNestedFling (View target, 
                float velocityX, 
                float velocityY, 
                boolean consumed)

Request a fling from a nested scroll.

This method signifies that a nested scrolling child has detected suitable conditions for a fling. Generally this means that a touch scroll has ended with a velocity in the direction of scrolling that meets or exceeds the minimum fling velocity along a scrollable axis.

If a nested scrolling child view would normally fling but it is at the edge of its own content, it can use this method to delegate the fling to its nested scrolling parent instead. The parent may optionally consume the fling or observe a child fling.

Parameters
target View: View that initiated the nested scroll

velocityX float: Horizontal velocity in pixels per second

velocityY float: Vertical velocity in pixels per second

consumed boolean: true if the child consumed the fling, false otherwise

Returns
boolean true if this parent consumed or otherwise reacted to the fling

onNestedPreFling

added in version 22.1.0
boolean onNestedPreFling (View target, 
                float velocityX, 
                float velocityY)

React to a nested fling before the target view consumes it.

This method siginfies that a nested scrolling child has detected a fling with the given velocity along each axis. Generally this means that a touch scroll has ended with a velocity in the direction of scrolling that meets or exceeds the minimum fling velocity along a scrollable axis.

If a nested scrolling parent is consuming motion as part of a pre-scroll, it may be appropriate for it to also consume the pre-fling to complete that same motion. By returning true from this method, the parent indicates that the child should not fling its own internal content as well.

Parameters
target View: View that initiated the nested scroll

velocityX float: Horizontal velocity in pixels per second

velocityY float: Vertical velocity in pixels per second

Returns
boolean true if this parent consumed the fling ahead of the target view

onNestedPreScroll

added in version 22.1.0
void onNestedPreScroll (View target, 
                int dx, 
                int dy, 
                int[] consumed)

React to a nested scroll in progress before the target view consumes a portion of the scroll.

When working with nested scrolling often the parent view may want an opportunity to consume the scroll before the nested scrolling child does. An example of this is a drawer that contains a scrollable list. The user will want to be able to scroll the list fully into view before the list itself begins scrolling.

onNestedPreScroll is called when a nested scrolling child invokes dispatchNestedPreScroll(int, int, int[], int[]). The implementation should report how any pixels of the scroll reported by dx, dy were consumed in the consumed array. Index 0 corresponds to dx and index 1 corresponds to dy. This parameter will never be null. Initial values for consumed[0] and consumed[1] will always be 0.

Parameters
target View: View that initiated the nested scroll

dx int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels

dy int: Vertical scroll distance in pixels

consumed int: Output. The horizontal and vertical scroll distance consumed by this parent

onNestedScroll

added in version 22.1.0
void onNestedScroll (View target, 
                int dxConsumed, 
                int dyConsumed, 
                int dxUnconsumed, 
                int dyUnconsumed)

React to a nested scroll in progress.

This method will be called when the ViewParent's current nested scrolling child view dispatches a nested scroll event. To receive calls to this method the ViewParent must have previously returned true for a call to onStartNestedScroll(View, View, int).

Both the consumed and unconsumed portions of the scroll distance are reported to the ViewParent. An implementation may choose to use the consumed portion to match or chase scroll position of multiple child elements, for example. The unconsumed portion may be used to allow continuous dragging of multiple scrolling or draggable elements, such as scrolling a list within a vertical drawer where the drawer begins dragging once the edge of inner scrolling content is reached.

Parameters
target View: The descendent view controlling the nested scroll

dxConsumed int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels already consumed by target

dyConsumed int: Vertical scroll distance in pixels already consumed by target

dxUnconsumed int: Horizontal scroll distance in pixels not consumed by target

dyUnconsumed int: Vertical scroll distance in pixels not consumed by target

onNestedScrollAccepted

added in version 22.1.0
void onNestedScrollAccepted (View child, 
                View target, 
                int axes)

React to the successful claiming of a nested scroll operation.

This method will be called after onStartNestedScroll returns true. It offers an opportunity for the view and its superclasses to perform initial configuration for the nested scroll. Implementations of this method should always call their superclass's implementation of this method if one is present.

Parameters
child View: Direct child of this ViewParent containing target

target View: View that initiated the nested scroll

axes int: Flags consisting of SCROLL_AXIS_HORIZONTAL, SCROLL_AXIS_VERTICAL or both

onStartNestedScroll

added in version 22.1.0
boolean onStartNestedScroll (View child, 
                View target, 
                int axes)

React to a descendant view initiating a nestable scroll operation, claiming the nested scroll operation if appropriate.

This method will be called in response to a descendant view invoking startNestedScroll(View, int). Each parent up the view hierarchy will be given an opportunity to respond and claim the nested scrolling operation by returning true.

This method may be overridden by ViewParent implementations to indicate when the view is willing to support a nested scrolling operation that is about to begin. If it returns true, this ViewParent will become the target view's nested scrolling parent for the duration of the scroll operation in progress. When the nested scroll is finished this ViewParent will receive a call to onStopNestedScroll(View).

Parameters
child View: Direct child of this ViewParent containing target

target View: View that initiated the nested scroll

axes int: Flags consisting of SCROLL_AXIS_HORIZONTAL, SCROLL_AXIS_VERTICAL or both

Returns
boolean true if this ViewParent accepts the nested scroll operation

onStopNestedScroll

added in version 22.1.0
void onStopNestedScroll (View target)

React to a nested scroll operation ending.

Perform cleanup after a nested scrolling operation. This method will be called when a nested scroll stops, for example when a nested touch scroll ends with a ACTION_UP or ACTION_CANCEL event. Implementations of this method should always call their superclass's implementation of this method if one is present.

Parameters
target View: View that initiated the nested scroll
