  • Go for expandablelistview. – GrIsHu Jul 21 '15 at 11:15
  • My requirements will not go for expandableListView. Please suggest me something else. – sakshi Agrawal Jul 21 '15 at 11:16
  • @sakshiAgrawal then explain your requirements in the question to make it more clear. Otherwise, you'll just get expandablelistview answers and others like "Don't do it" – d0nut Jul 21 '15 at 11:17
  • what do you want to do exactly?? I guess expandable listview should do the trick.because using a scroll able content inside another scroll-able content is bad habit. – Khushal Chouhan Jul 21 '15 at 11:20
  • I am creating a cart(sort of). I have to display the items grouped by the store name. I have to display the store name and store total price as a heading and the items for that store as a sub category. Plus I have two buttons of '+' and '-' to add the quantity of the item. – sakshi Agrawal Jul 21 '15 at 11:22

It seems like you are trying to develop expandable list view.

Here is sample of it

this effects when it comes to performance of the list view... the solution is to infliate a new listview inside the main listView, you can do this inside adapters getView method

here is the link - android: listview in listview

Take a LinearLayout in XML and and make another view for row which you want to add and then inflate row and add to linearlayout.

  • This is a good suggestion, just to add to it, the data structure that we send to the Adapter will look like ArrayList> and also some one else has already done all the complex stuff using expandable list view. So I feel it is better to use that. – Sreekanth Karumanaghat Sep 25 '17 at 07:44
