I recently started learning react native and i have been going through some styling problems nad tailwind conversion of code but leaving that i am facing a more irritating issue... My scrollView tag is not scrolling...
import { ScrollView, View, Text } from "react-native";
import React from "react";
import { SafeAreaView } from "react-native-safe-area-context";
const Home = () => {
return (
<SafeAreaView className=" flex-1">
<ScrollView
contentContainerStyle={{
display: "flex",
height: "100%",
alignItems: "center",
padding: 8,
margin: 2,
flex: 1,
flexGrow: 1,
marginHorizontal: 20,
}}
>
<View className=" w-screen h-[500px] items-center mt-1">
<View className="bg-pink-300 h-2/5 w-11/12 m-1 rounded-lg items-center">
<Text className="text-center text-2xl font-black text-black">
graph of payment made recently
</Text>
</View>
<View className="bg-slate-300 h-2/5 w-11/12 m-1 rounded-lg items-center">
<Text className="text-center text-2xl font-black text-black">
recent payments made
</Text>
</View>
<View className="bg-slate-300 h-2/5 w-11/12 m-1 rounded-lg items-center">
<Text className="text-center text-2xl font-black text-black">
recent payments made
</Text>
</View>
<View className="bg-slate-300 h-2/5 w-11/12 m-1 rounded-lg items-center">
<Text className="text-center text-2xl font-black text-black">
recent payments made
</Text>
</View>
<View className="bg-slate-300 h-2/5 w-11/12 m-1 rounded-lg items-center">
<Text className="text-center text-2xl font-black text-black">
recent payments made
</Text>
</View>
</View>
</ScrollView>
</SafeAreaView>
);
};
export default Home;
this is my home page in the route (tabs). I have gone through so many stack overflow question, so many other websites but none of the solution are working. I also note that most of them are talking about changing the flex settings and other stuff.
I expected the scroll window to scroll when i added the scrollView tag to the app but i didn't get that when i run on android studio i can see that a scrollbar is formed but its not getting used.
Pls Help i am losing hair over this (mostly its gonna be some stupid thing i didn't add)
I ran your code in React Native, and here are the adjustments you should make to the ScrollView style:
<SafeAreaView style={{flex: 1}}>
<ScrollView
style={{
padding: 8,
margin: 2,
flex: 1,
marginHorizontal: 20,
}}>
</ScrollView>
</SafeAreaView>
Additionally, remove the fixed height of the container (h-[500px]). Instead of using a percentage for height (h-2/5), provide a numeric value for height. This approach ensures better compatibility and responsiveness across different devices.
