RecyclerView smoothScroll to position in the center. android


I am using a horizontal layout manager for my RecyclerView. I need to make RecyclerView in the next way: when click on some item - make smoothScrool to that position and put that item in the center of RecyclerView (if it possible, for example, 10 item from 20).

So, I have no problem with smoothScrollToPosition(), but how to put item than in the center of RecyclerView???

Thanks!


Solution

  • Yes it's possible.

    By implementing RecyclerView.SmoothScroller's method onTargetFound(View, State, Action).

    /**
     * Called when the target position is laid out. This is the last callback SmoothScroller
     * will receive and it should update the provided {@link Action} to define the scroll
     * details towards the target view.
     * @param targetView    The view element which render the target position.
     * @param state         Transient state of RecyclerView
     * @param action        Action instance that you should update to define final scroll action
     *                      towards the targetView
     */
    abstract protected void onTargetFound(View targetView, State state, Action action);
    

    Specifically in LinearLayoutManager with LinearSmoothScroller:

    public class CenterLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager {
    
        public CenterLayoutManager(Context context) {
            super(context);
        }
    
        public CenterLayoutManager(Context context, int orientation, boolean reverseLayout) {
            super(context, orientation, reverseLayout);
        }
    
        public CenterLayoutManager(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr, int defStyleRes) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr, defStyleRes);
        }
    
        @Override
        public void smoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView recyclerView, RecyclerView.State state, int position) {
            RecyclerView.SmoothScroller smoothScroller = new CenterSmoothScroller(recyclerView.getContext());
            smoothScroller.setTargetPosition(position);
            startSmoothScroll(smoothScroller);
        }
    
        private static class CenterSmoothScroller extends LinearSmoothScroller {
    
            CenterSmoothScroller(Context context) {
                super(context);
            }
    
            @Override
            public int calculateDtToFit(int viewStart, int viewEnd, int boxStart, int boxEnd, int snapPreference) {
                return (boxStart + (boxEnd - boxStart) / 2) - (viewStart + (viewEnd - viewStart) / 2);
            }
        }
    }
