How to add headerview to recyclerview with stagger

Question

I want add a headerview like listview into recyclerview with staggeredGridLayoutManager. I have search all library and only found this one RecyclerHeaderView but this library have limitation for LinearLayoutManager or GridLayoutManager. Is possible to add headerview for staggeredGridLayout?

Answer 1

you can use setFullSpan in the layout manager to create a row that looks like a header

public final void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {

    StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams layoutParams = (StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams) viewHolder.itemView.getLayoutParams();
    layoutParams.setFullSpan(true);
}
