Android Question scroll view or convert to html

[merlin2049er]

Just need to add some features to an existing app. Unfortunately not everything on the screen will fit into a layout, should I use a scrollview and drop in a imageview larger than the screen resolution or should I just try converting all to html and load it with a webview?

oh, the other thing is my screens have a few controls, do they stay in relative position to the image in a scrollview? (I've got the items specifically set with the designer).

A ScrollView is a good solution if you want to add vertical scrolling.

You should load the layout directly into the ScrollView inner panel.

thanks. so are the positions going to remain relative to the screen (i'm using the designer to drop a few controls onto the layout).
Some of the buttons are going to off the screen and have to be scrolled up to view them. I guess I'll have to play with it a bit.

In the Designer you should define a layout file with a Panel and put all Views onto this Panel which can be higher than the screen.
In the code you load this layout file onto the internal Panel of the ScrollView with ScrollView.Panel.LoadLayout("MyLAyout").
Have a look at this example ScrollView example with a Panel higher than the screen.
