In my android app I have a linear layout within a scroll view but when I open the app in the emulator I can't scroll the scroll view.
I don't know if this could be the solution but I'm not working with a mouse but only with my touchpad and when I try the 2 finger scroll the emulator acts like if I was pressing the button. I have tried to put the fillViewport function in it but it is still not working.

The app build is working just fine but the scroll is the only thing not working.
Ok, I actually figured it out myself quit quickly. Seems like I have asked this a lot to early without really thinking about it. Though the solution might help other people:
I just put everything in another LinearLayout. That fixed the problem. Now only the bottom part is scrolling leaving the upper part untouched which is exactly what I wanted.
