The full solution involves a few key points
- Use
RelativeLayout
, so thatViews
can be setup to overlap one another - Align the
EditText
with the bottom of theWindows
usingandroid:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
- Use
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
in your manifest, so that the bottom of theWindow
changes when the keyboard pops up (as you mentioned) - Put the
ImageView
inside aScrollView
so that theImageView
can be larger than theWindow
, and disable scrolling on theScrollView
by usingScrollView#setEnabled(false)
Here is the layout file
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.so3.MainActivity">
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/scroll"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21201569/@drawable/stickfigures"/>
</ScrollView>
<EditText
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="@android:color/holo_blue_bright"
android:text="Please enter text"
android:textSize="40sp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Here is my Activity
package com.so3;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ScrollView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ScrollView sv = (ScrollView)findViewById(R.id.scroll);
sv.setEnabled(false);
}
}
My AndroidManifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.so3" >
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.so3.MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
