I have a Constraint Layout and within that I have an ImageView. I put a Linear Layout in my XML underneath that for some ImageButtons I want my app to scroll through. I researched and found that I need to wrap my Linear Layout in a ScrollView which I did but for some reason it will not show the bottom of my content. It cuts off the bottom of the view in the emulator. I tried wrapping the ScrollView in a Relative Layout which was suggested in one of the forums but that did nothing. I also tried setting the ScrollView with android:fillViewport="true" but that did not work either. I will attach screen shot of what it looks like and I will paste XML below that.

  • @Selvin I am still new to programming so what you said doesn't make much sense to me. If you could be more specific please do. – ZachGiovanelli Jul 08 '17 at 22:21

So after doing a considerable amount of research on this forums site and through video tutorials I decided to post this question. I apologize to waste other people's time but I noticed on the left related questions! I found an article that was similar enough to my layout that when reading it I understood how to solve my own problem! I messed around with the code and removed the Linear Layout from my XML and replaced it with another Constraint Layout. I also added the fillViewPort line of code to ScrollView and removed the Layout Width and Height and changed it to 0dp. I use the constraints option to have the ScrollView fit properly in the Emulator and I did the same things for the ImageButtons to align on top of each other properly. I will link the article that helped me!
