Difference between adjustResize and adjustPan in android

Question

I tried to write a code which is used to re-size the UI components when soft-keyboard appears   When I use adjustResize  it res-size the UI components and at the same time adjustPan gave me same output   I want to know the difference between them and when to use each component  Which one adjustPan or adjustResize  is good for resizing UI    Here is my xml     lt ScrollView xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent      android fillViewport  true   gt        lt RelativeLayout         android layout width  fill parent          android layout height  wrap content   gt            lt LinearLayout             android layout width  fill parent              android layout height  wrap content              android layout alignParentBottom  true              android orientation  vertical   gt                lt EditText                 android id    id editText5                  android layout width  match parent                  android layout height  wrap content                  android layout marginTop  45dp                  android ems  10                  android inputType  textPersonName    gt                lt Button                 android id    id button1                  android layout width  match parent                  android layout height  wrap content                  android layout marginBottom  40dp                  android text  My Button    gt           lt  LinearLayout gt       lt  RelativeLayout gt    lt  ScrollView gt    and the menifest file     lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt manifest xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      package  com example adjustscroll      android versionCode  1      android versionName  1 0   gt        lt uses-sdk         android minSdkVersion  8          android targetSdkVersion  17    gt        lt application         android allowBackup  true          android icon   drawable ic launcher          android label   string app name          android theme   style AppTheme   gt           lt activity             android name  com example adjustscroll MainActivity              android label   string app name              android windowSoftInputMode  adjustPan adjustResize   gt               lt intent-filter gt                   lt action android name  android intent action MAIN    gt                    lt category android name  android intent category LAUNCHER    gt               lt  intent-filter gt           lt  activity gt       lt  application gt    lt  manifest gt

As doc says also keep in mind the correct value combination:

The setting must be one of the values listed in the following table, or a combination of one "state..." value plus one "adjust..." value. Setting multiple values in either group — multiple "state..." values, for example — has undefined results. Individual values are separated by a vertical bar (|). For example:

<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize" . . . >

I was also a bit confused between adjustResize and adjustPan when I was a beginner  The definitions given above are correct  AdjustResize   Main activity s content is resized to make room for soft input i e keyboard  AdjustPan   Instead of resizing overall contents of the window  it only pans the content so that the user can always see what is he typing AdjustNothing   As the name suggests nothing is resized or panned  Keyboard is opened as it is irrespective of whether it is hiding the contents or not   I have a created a example for better understanding Below is my xml file    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt android support constraint ConstraintLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      xmlns app  http   schemas android com apk res-auto      xmlns tools  http   schemas android com tools      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent      tools context   MainActivity  gt        lt EditText         android layout width  match parent          android layout height  wrap content          android gravity  center          android hint  Type Here          app layout constraintTop toBottomOf   id button1   gt         lt Button         android id    id button1          android layout width  0dp          android layout height  wrap content          android text  Button1          app layout constraintLeft toLeftOf  parent          app layout constraintBottom toBottomOf  parent          app layout constraintEnd toStartOf   id button2          app layout constraintStart toStartOf  parent          android layout marginBottom   dimen margin70dp   gt        lt Button         android id    id button2          android layout width  0dp          android layout height  wrap content          android text  Button2          app layout constraintBottom toBottomOf  parent          app layout constraintStart toEndOf   id button1          app layout constraintEnd toStartOf   id button3          android layout marginBottom   dimen margin70dp   gt        lt Button         android id    id button3          android layout width  0dp          android layout height  wrap content          android text  Button3          app layout constraintRight toRightOf  parent          app layout constraintBottom toBottomOf  parent          app layout constraintEnd toEndOf  parent          app layout constraintStart toEndOf   id button2          android layout marginBottom   dimen margin70dp   gt   lt  android support constraint ConstraintLayout gt    Here is the design view of the xml   AdjustResize Example below    AdjustPan Example below    AdjustNothing Example below

From the Android Developer Site link   quot adjustResize quot  The activity s main window is always resized to make room for the soft keyboard on screen   quot adjustPan quot  The activity s main window is not resized to make room for the soft keyboard  Rather  the contents of the window are automatically panned so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users can always see what they are typing  This is generally less desirable than resizing  because the user may need to close the soft keyboard to get at and interact with obscured parts of the window   according to your comment  use following in your activity manifest  lt activity android windowSoftInputMode  quot adjustResize quot  gt   lt  activity gt

You can use android windowSoftInputMode  stateAlwaysHidden adjustResize  in AndroidManifest xml for your current activity  and use android fitsSystemWindows  true  in styles or rootLayout
