I am building a social app and have an activity for viewing user's profiles (like Instagram).
I basically want to be able to scroll normally and naturally from the ScrollView to the RecyclerView and viceversa. So for example, if the user does a strong swipe from the bottom of the RecyclerView I want it to take him up to the top of the ScrollView . I was thinking of the following solution (but don't really know how to do it): make the RecyclerView's height "expanded" so it would contain all the items but with no scrollbar, so that the ScrollView can do it's a natural thing.
My layout looks like this:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!-- FIRST REGION THIS IS SET PRGRAMATICALLY TO TAKE UP WHOLE SCREEN-->
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView> <Textview> <Bla> <Bla>
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- SECOND REGION ALSO SET TO TAKE UP ALL SCREEN PROGRAMATICALLY-->
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
