I try to solve the following:
- using RecyclerView
- with GridLayoutManager
- with fixed cell-widths
- recyclerview resizing only to the necessary height (wrap_content)
I try to use the following code, the problem is that it doesn't work, and I haven't found any working example not mentioning to redraw properly when orientation changes.
public class AutofitRecyclerView extends RecyclerView {
private MyGridLayoutManager manager;
private int columnWidth = -1;
public AutofitRecyclerView(Context context) {
super(context);
init(context, null);
}
public AutofitRecyclerView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
init(context, attrs);
}
public AutofitRecyclerView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
init(context, attrs);
}
private void init(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
if (attrs != null) {
int[] attrsArray = {
android.R.attr.columnWidth
};
TypedArray array = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, attrsArray);
columnWidth = array.getDimensionPixelSize(0, -1);
array.recycle();
}
manager = new MyGridLayoutManager(getContext(), 1);
setLayoutManager(manager);
}
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthSpec, int heightSpec) {
super.onMeasure(widthSpec, heightSpec);
if (columnWidth > 0) {
int mw = getMeasuredWidth();
int spanCount = Math.max(1, mw / columnWidth);
manager.setSpanCount(spanCount);
}
int numOfFullRows = manager.getItemCount() / manager.getSpanCount();
if(manager.getItemCount() % manager.getSpanCount() > 0)
{
numOfFullRows++;
}
if(getChildCount() > 0) {
int h = 0;
try {
h = manager.getChildAt(0).getMeasuredHeight();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if(h != 0) {
getLayoutParams().height = numOfFullRows * h;
}
}
}
}
Based on the code that connector published I came up with the following solution that supports different row / column sizes (though I have admittedly not tested that), takes the sizes of the item decorations into account and handles the different measure modes properly.
Here is the code:
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.support.v7.widget.GridLayoutManager;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class WrappableGridLayoutManager extends GridLayoutManager {
public WrappableGridLayoutManager(Context context, int spanCount) {
super(context, spanCount);
}
private int[] measuredSize = new int[2];
@Override
public void onMeasure(RecyclerView.Recycler recycler, RecyclerView.State state, int widthSpec, int heightSpec) {
final int widthMode = View.MeasureSpec.getMode(widthSpec);
final int heightMode = View.MeasureSpec.getMode(heightSpec);
final int widthSize = View.MeasureSpec.getSize(widthSpec);
final int heightSize = View.MeasureSpec.getSize(heightSpec);
int spanWidth = 0;
int spanHeight = 0;
int viewWidth = 0;
int viewHeight = 0;
int spanCount = getSpanCount();
for (int i = 0; i < getItemCount(); i++) {
measureScrapChild(recycler, i, View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(i, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED), View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(i, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED), measuredSize);
if (i % spanCount == 0) {
spanWidth = measuredSize[0];
spanHeight = measuredSize[1];
} else {
if (getOrientation() == VERTICAL) {
spanWidth += measuredSize[0];
spanHeight = Math.max(spanHeight, measuredSize[1]);
} else {
spanWidth = Math.max(spanWidth, measuredSize[0]);
spanHeight += measuredSize[1];
}
}
if (i % spanCount == spanCount - 1 || i == getItemCount() - 1) {
if (getOrientation() == VERTICAL) {
viewWidth = Math.max(viewWidth, spanWidth);
viewHeight += spanHeight;
} else {
viewWidth += spanWidth;
viewHeight = Math.max(viewHeight, spanHeight);
}
}
}
int finalWidth;
int finalHeight;
switch (widthMode) {
case View.MeasureSpec.EXACTLY:
finalWidth = widthSize;
break;
case View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST:
finalWidth = Math.min(widthSize, viewWidth);
break;
case View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED:
finalWidth = viewWidth;
break;
default:
finalWidth = widthSize;
break;
}
switch (heightMode) {
case View.MeasureSpec.EXACTLY:
finalHeight = heightSize;
break;
case View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST:
finalHeight = Math.min(heightSize, viewHeight);
break;
case View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED:
finalHeight = viewHeight;
break;
default:
finalHeight = heightSize;
break;
}
setMeasuredDimension(finalWidth, finalHeight);
}
private void measureScrapChild(RecyclerView.Recycler recycler, int position, int widthSpec, int heightSpec, int[] measuredDimension) {
View view = null;
try {
view = recycler.getViewForPosition(position);
} catch (Exception ex) {
// try - catch is needed since support library version 24
}
if (view != null) {
RecyclerView.LayoutParams p = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams) view.getLayoutParams();
int childWidthSpec = ViewGroup.getChildMeasureSpec(widthSpec, getPaddingLeft() + getPaddingRight(), p.width);
int childHeightSpec = ViewGroup.getChildMeasureSpec(heightSpec, getPaddingTop() + getPaddingBottom(), p.height);
view.measure(childWidthSpec, childHeightSpec);
measuredDimension[0] = view.getMeasuredWidth() + p.leftMargin + p.rightMargin;
measuredDimension[1] = view.getMeasuredHeight() + p.bottomMargin + p.topMargin;
Rect decoratorRect = new Rect();
calculateItemDecorationsForChild(view, decoratorRect);
measuredDimension[0] += decoratorRect.left;
measuredDimension[0] += decoratorRect.right;
measuredDimension[1] += decoratorRect.top;
measuredDimension[1] += decoratorRect.bottom;
recycler.recycleView(view);
}
}
}
You'll need to add a custom GridlayoutManager.

If you set the below property, then all the cell will have fixed size:
recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
