I solved it by extending SwipeRefreshLayout
and overriding its onInterceptTouchEvent
. Inside, I calculate if the X distance the user has wandered is bigger than the touch slop. If it does, it means the user is swiping horizontally, therefor I return false
which lets the child view (the HorizontalScrollView
in this case) to get the touch event.
public class CustomSwipeToRefresh extends SwipeRefreshLayout {
private int mTouchSlop;
private float mPrevX;
public CustomSwipeToRefresh(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
mTouchSlop = ViewConfiguration.get(context).getScaledTouchSlop();
}
@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
mPrevX = MotionEvent.obtain(event).getX();
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
final float eventX = event.getX();
float xDiff = Math.abs(eventX - mPrevX);
if (xDiff > mTouchSlop) {
return false;
}
}
return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(event);
}
}
