Android ScrollView (Vertical)

The android.widget.ScrollView class provides the functionality of scroll view. ScrollView is used to scroll the child elements of palette inside ScrollView. Android supports vertical scroll view as default scroll view. Vertical ScrollView scrolls elements vertically.

Android uses HorizontalScrollView for horizontal ScrollView.

Let's implement simple example of vertical ScrollView.

activity_main.xml

Now, drag ScrollView from palette to activity_main.xml file and place some palette element inside it.
