Starting from Android 2.3(?) a blue edge appears automatically when the ScrollView reaches the edge. I think that this is the same behavior as the ListView behavior.
Thx Erel, unfortunately I'm running droid 2.3 and it doesn't behave like so... In your opinion what is the best way to present a simple long text that will scroll and bounce on the edges? I tried using listview but I can't rid off the dividers lines...
I'm not sure that I understand the exact behavior that you are referring to. Anyway, you can use a ListView with a single item. You can calculate the required height with StringUtils library.
