scrollview not scrolling

[jimseng]

Hi. I have just purchased basic for Android and I appologize for being such a newb but I am having trouble getting a scrollview to scroll.

I am trying to combine the sliding panels example with a list with checkboxes.
Basically I am trying to add a scrollview to one of the panels and I can acheive most of it but I just can't get the list to scroll. I feel I am so close but I must have fundementally mis-understood something. Here is the code: (Combined from 2 examples on this forum)


For i = 0 To panels.Length - 1
panels(i).Initialize("panels")
panels(i).Color = Colors.RGB(Rnd(0, 255), Rnd(0, 255), Rnd(0, 255))
Activity.AddView(panels(i), 100%x, 0, 100%x, 100%y - 60dip) 'add the panel to the layout
Activity.AddMenuItem("Panel #" & i, "Menu")
Next
scrollview1.Initialize(0)
Dim panl As Panel
panl = scrollview1.Panel
panl.Initialize("")
panels(0).LoadLayout("jabbit")
panels(1).LoadLayout("artlyt")
panels(2).AddView(panl, 100%x, 0, 100%x, 100%y - 60dip)
lstChecks.Initialize
For i = 1 To 100
Dim chk As CheckBox
chk.Initialize("")
chk.Text = "Item #" & i
lstChecks.Add(chk)
Dim lbl1 As Label
lbl1.Initialize("")
lbl1.Text = "Value #" & i
lbl1.Gravity = Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL
panels(2).AddView(chk, 0, height * (i - 1), 120dip, height)
Next

My 3rd panel (panel(2)) shows 7 items and no more and won't scroll. It is starting to frustrate me after a couple of hours.

Cheers

Could you post your project as a zip file.
There are several mistakes and it would be more efficient to modify your code insead of giving you lots of explanations.

Best regards.

Hi Klaus.
Thank for the response. I wonder if you could point me in the right direction to see if I can work it out. I have, in fact succeeded by using a layout and putting a scrollview on that and loading the layout instead of panels(2).AddView(panl, 100%x, 0, 100%x, 100%y - 60dip) but I am frustrated that I have not been able to get the version posted here to work and I want to lear why.
But yes, I am sure I can upload a zip file if you think that would be better, just after I have stripped out all the other ebarrasing code!

Regards.

I figured it out. It is occurng because I have a ScrollView inside another ScrollView.
