ListView OnItemClickListener Not Responding?

Question

I've looked everywhere for a solution to this, but I can't figure out how to implement it. My OnItemClickListener was disabled somehow on my ListView rows, because I have an ImageButton in the row layout, which takes over the focus. There have been numerous questions I've found, but none of them have gotten me anywhere.

I've checked this question, but I couldn't really make heads or tails of it. I just need a way to get the rows clickable so that I can detect when a row is pressed. Long press and focus work fine.

Answer 1

I have sub-classed ImageButton and setFocusable="false" in layout definition didn't work for me. It solved calling setFocusable(false) in constructor of subclass.

Answer 2

This will definitely work. Add this to the layout definition.

android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" 

Found the solution here

Answer 3

best way to do is this:

  android:focusable="false"
  android:focusableInTouchMode="false"

set these properties for that Imagebutton and try. I

Answer 4

Using a ScrollView can prevent the onItemClickListener from receiving the input.

Hope this helps anyone.

    listView= (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview_names);

   listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
       @Override
       public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id)
       {
           Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),"Clicked Button",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
           Log.d("h","clicked");

           /* Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,Display_data.class);

            intent.putExtra("NAME",n);
            intent.putExtra("AGE",a);
            startActivity(intent);*/
       }
   });

Y this toast isn not working

Answer 6

set your ImageButton's attribute:

android:focusable="false"

Because AbsListView.onTouchEvent check child.hasFocusable().
