I am using a RecyclerView
to display movie posters in a Gridlayout.
My goal is to save the position of the user, so when they rotate the phone it will save their position.
movieGrid.scrollToPosition(10);
That line of code has been the only line of code that works to go to a position other than the top when the phone rotates.
I have tried
layoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(position[0], position[1]);
But it didnt work.
This is the complete code for my MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements
MainActivityInterface {
private static final String LOG_TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
private String sortBy;
private MovieAdapter movieAdapter;
private RecyclerView movieGrid;
private GridLayoutManager layoutManager;
private TextView errorMessage;
private TextView noFavoritesView;
private ProgressBar loadingIndicator;
private static final String SORT_BY_MOST_POPULAR = "http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/popular?api_key=" + BuildConfig.THE_MOVIE_DB_API_KEY;
private static final String SORT_BY_HIGHEST_RATED = "http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/top_rated?api_key=" + BuildConfig.THE_MOVIE_DB_API_KEY;
private static final String SORT_BY_FAVORITES = "";
