<TouchableOpacity style={{ flex: 1 }} >
<ImageBackground
source={require('../../images/home.jpg')}>
<View style={styles.item} collapsable={false}>

I have a list of TouchableOpacity
inside a ScrollView
. I want to disable highlighting effect of TouchableOpacity
. When scrolling I want to highlight only when onPress
event is triggered. Because it may confuse the user that it is pressed.
Try setting the activeOpacity
prop on the TouchableOpacity
to 1 when scrolling. Use default settings when the user stops scrolling.
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/touchableopacity#activeopacity
You can make use of onScrollBeginDrag
and onScrollEndDrag
props.
state = {
scrollBegin: false
}
scrollStart = () => this.setState({scrollBegin: true})
scrollEnd = () => this.setState({scrollBegin: false})
<ScrollView onScrollBeginDrag={this.scrollStart} onScrollEndDrag={this.scrollEnd}>
... Other stuff
</ScrollView>
and set activeOpacity={1}
for TouchableOpacity when this.state.scrollBegin=true
I had the same issue, so I wrote this class that I use instead of <TouchableOpacity> in my code:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { TouchableOpacity } from 'react-native';
import TimerMixin from 'react-timer-mixin';
class TouchableOpacityScrollable extends Component {
_onPress() {
const { onPress } = this.props;
// Looking in the TouchableOpacity source code we see that
// the touch Opacity is 150, and that it comes back in 250 milliseconds.
// @see https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/c416b40542ece64e26fb2298485ae42eeebc352a/Libraries/Components/Touchable/TouchableOpacity.js
this.refs.touchableOpacity.setOpacityTo(0.2, 150);
TimerMixin.setTimeout(() => {
onPress();
this.refs.touchableOpacity.setOpacityTo(1, 250);
}, 150);
}
render() {
const { style, children } = this.props;
return (
<TouchableOpacity
ref="touchableOpacity"
style={style}
activeOpacity={1.0}
onPress={() => this._onPress()}
>
{children}
</TouchableOpacity>
);
}
}
export default TouchableOpacityScrollable;
You will have to install react-timer-mixin to prevent possible crashes.
Enjoy!
