I'm facing an issue with ScrollView in my newly created Android app. Previously, ScrollView worked perfectly in my projects, but now with the introduction of Edge-to-Edge in Android, ScrollView is not working properly on any page.
The issue is more noticeable when dealing with long forms. After filling a field and dismissing the keyboard, the ScrollView doesn't scroll to the next input field as expected.
I've already tried solutions like:
- Adding
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"in the manifest. - Using
view.post { scrollView.fullScroll(View.FOCUS_DOWN) }. - Applying
fillViewPortin the ScrollView.
None of these solutions seem to fix the issue.
Has anyone else encountered this problem or found a working solution?
