Is there a way to detect that ScrollViwer of ListView is in scrolling mode and stopped scrolling. In windows phone 8.1 ListView we can not get reference of the scrollviewer.

Any one done it in windows phone 8.1 WinRT app?

Once the ListView is Loaded you can get the ScrollViewer like this:

var sv = (ScrollViewer)VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(this.ListV, 0), 0);

Edit

As Romasz suggested, once you get the ScrollViewer, you can use its ViewChanged event, to monitor when it is scrolling and when it stops.

Also, here's the generic extension method that I use for traversing the visual tree:

// The method traverses the visual tree lazily, layer by layer
// and returns the objects of the desired type
public static IEnumerable<T> GetChildrenOfType<T>(this DependencyObject start) where T : class 
{
    var queue = new Queue<DependencyObject>();
    queue.Enqueue(start);

    while (queue.Count > 0) {
        var item = queue.Dequeue();

        var realItem = item as T;
        if (realItem != null) {
             yield return realItem;
        }

        int count = VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(item);
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
            queue.Enqueue(VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(item, i));
        }
    }
}

To get the ScrollViewer using this methos, do this:

var sv = yourListView.GetChildrenOfType<ScrollViewer>().First();

You can find the ScrollViewer of your ListView by using VisualTreeHelper. For example like this:

// method to pull out a ScrollViewer
public static ScrollViewer GetScrollViewer(DependencyObject depObj)
{
    if (depObj is ScrollViewer) return depObj as ScrollViewer;

    for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(depObj); i++)
    {
        var child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(depObj, i);

        var result = GetScrollViewer(child);
        if (result != null) return result;
    }
    return null;
}

Once you have a ScrollViewer you can subscribe to its events:

GetScrollViewer(yourListView).ViewChanged += yourEvent_ViewChanged;

  • I am using IsupportIncrementalLoading extended class for populating the list view, where the items are loaded from internet. How can I get the scrollviewer in this case, since the listview take some time to populate the child items. – MohanRajNK Feb 01 '15 at 12:20
  • @MohanRajNK And where is the problem - what are you trying to achieve? As I think ListView has one scrollviewer and incremental loading just loads items when needed. – Romasz Feb 01 '15 at 13:24
  • The problem is how can I get a scrollviewer? I called the getscrollviewer method inside the listview loaded method. But at that time the listview has no child items. i.e GetChildrenCount returns 0. – MohanRajNK Feb 01 '15 at 13:55
  • @MohanRajNK I've not played with that much. In this case I think it will be more suitable just to ask new question on SO. – Romasz Feb 01 '15 at 14:27
  • Worked. Thanks. I should research more before I ask a question. Sorry! – MohanRajNK Feb 01 '15 at 15:52
  • @MohanRajNK I'm not sure why you have deleted the question - it was a good one - may help somebody in future. – Romasz Feb 01 '15 at 15:53

You must load data to listview before getting scrollview. If listview has empty row then scrollview you get will be null.
