Android – NestedScrollView which contains ExpandableListView doesn’t scroll when expanded

You can use NonScrollExpandableListView you can achieve non-scroll property of any Lisview or GridView or ExpandableListView by overriding following method.

@Override
public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
    int heightMeasureSpec_custom = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(
            Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
    super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec_custom);
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = getLayoutParams();
    params.height = getMeasuredHeight();
} 

So for using NonScrollExpandableListView you need to make one custom class.

public class NonScrollExpandableListView extends ExpandableListView {

    public NonScrollExpandableListView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public NonScrollExpandableListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public NonScrollExpandableListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        int heightMeasureSpec_custom = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(
                Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec_custom);
        ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = getLayoutParams();
        params.height = getMeasuredHeight();
    }
}

And use it like.

<com.example.extraclasses.NonScrollExpandableListView 

    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> 

Happy coding.
