Hi, I need to achieve Scenerio as in the previous thread: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/17a76edb78471115#
<pasting the same content here for convienence> 1) ListView has many items (i.e. scrolling will occur at some point) 2) At the beginning, the selection is at the top (item #0) 3) User scrolls down (i.e. we're not in touch mode) 4) For the first items, the selection is moving down without the list to scroll. 5) Once the selected item is reaching the middle of the list's viewport: the list starts to scroll-down. 6) Then, toward the end of the list: scrolling stops and the selection keeps moving down until the last item is reached. It's a common feature in (keyboard-enabled) UI frameworks but I don't believe it's possible to achieve with Android, as for now After fishing for answers on the internet and the android source. Looks like Its not supported, but I did notice there are a few private functions in ListView, (e.g. function fillFromMiddle(int, int), fillFromSelection(int, int)) what do these do? I also see 'mLayoutMode = mStackFromBottom ? LAYOUT_FORCE_BOTTOM : LAYOUT_FORCE_TOP;' on data changed function which always forces my selected Item in the list view to be on the top. Is there a way to change that? (FYI: setSelection on the listView to switch between items was too slow for fast scrolling through a big list so I had to resort to using scrollBy functions) To work around this problem. I tried to dispatch touchevents and achieve scrolling functions like (smoothScrollBy(..) ). As my device isn't a touch based device I DO NOT get a onSCrollStateChanged, even though I do register onScrollListener. is there a way to work around this? (Is there a way to fake the device to think its a touch based device even if its not, the device I am working on is a custom device so I can modify the platform code as well, please let me know if this is possible) Also, Is there a way to enable fast scrolling programatically? -Photon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
