I was getting started with android app development and my requirement is to add a list with some headers in it. I managed to implement this using a combinations of textView and listView. Following is my xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:animateLayoutChanges="true"
android:fillViewport="true"
android:orientation="vertical">
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".ui.home.HomeFragment">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="10dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Header 1" />
<ListView
android:id="@+id/list1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="@array/sports_array" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Header 2" />
<ListView
android:id="@+id/list2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="@array/sports_array" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Header 3" />
<ListView
android:id="@+id/list3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="@array/sports_array" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Header 4" />
<ListView
android:id="@+id/list4"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="@array/sports_array" />
</LinearLayout>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
And sports_array is equal to:
<string-array name="sports_array">
<item>Shuttle Badminton</item>
<item>Tennis</item>
<item>FootBall</item>
<item>Basket Ball</item>
<item>Table Tennis</item>
<item>Chess</item>
<item>Hockey</item>
</string-array>
Now the problem is that it loads all the lists on the UI but it doesn't scroll down to make the elements visible that are not displayed.
