I have a TextView in a layout whos background is a Selector. And the TextView's text is set to Spanned from HTML. Then I set the TextView with the LinkMovementMethod.
Now when I tap on the TextView, the click event is not sent to its parent layout to trigger the selector.
How should this be solved?
Sometime only this helps:
View child = parent.findViewById(R.id.btnMoreText);
child.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
View parent = (View) v.getParent();
parent.performClick();
}
});
Another variant, works not always:
child.setOnClickListener(null);
Declare your TextView
not clickable / focusable by using android:clickable="false"
and android:focusable="false"
or v.setClickable(false)
and v.setFocusable(false)
. The click events should be dispatched to the TextView
's parent now.
Note:
In order to achieve this, you have to add click to its direct parent
. or set
android:clickable="false"
and android:focusable="false"
to its direct parent to pass listener to further parent.
Put
android:duplicateParentState="true"
in child then the views get its drawable state (focused, pressed, etc.) from its direct parent rather than from itself. you can set onclick for parent and it call on child clicked
If you want to both OnTouch
and OnClick
listener to parent and child view both, please use below trick:
User ScrollView as a Parent view and inside that placed your child view inside Relative/LinearLayout.
Make Parent ScrollView android:fillViewport="true"
so View not be scrolled.
Then set OnTouch
listener to parent and OnClick
listener to Child views.
And enjoy both listener callbacks.
This answer is similar to Alexander Ukhov's answer, except that it uses touch events rather than click events. Those event allow the parent to display the proper pressed states (e.g., ripple effect). This answer is also in Kotlin instead of Java.
view.setOnTouchListener { view, motionEvent ->
(view.parent as View).onTouchEvent(motionEvent)
}
If your TextView
create click issues, than remove android:inputType=""
from your xml file.
