I have a custom ScrollView (extended android.widget.ScrollView) which I use in my layout. I want to measure the total height of the contents of this scrollview. getHeight() and getMeasuredHeight() don't give me correct values (too high numbers).
Background information: I want to determine how far the user has scrolled. I use onScrollChanged to get the X value, but I need to know a percentage so I'll need the total scrollbar height.
Thanks a lot! Erik
A ScrollView always has 1 child. All you need to do is get the height of the child to determine the total height:
See the source of ScrollView. Unfortunately, this method is private, but you could copy it into your own code. Note that other answers don't take padding into account
