How to implement a clickable ScrollView?

Question

I'm trying to implement a clickable scrollview:

findViewById(R.id.parent_view).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Log.d("", "onClick");
            }
        });  




         <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/parent_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:orientation="vertical"
            android:clickable="true">

           <ScrollView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:layout_gravity="left|center_vertical">

                <TextView
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:text="" />

           </ScrollView>

           <ScrollView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:layout_gravity="left|center_vertical">

                <TextView
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:text="" />

           </ScrollView>
        </LinearLayout>

It seems like the scrollview consumes all touch events and therefore the onClick method is never triggered. Is there any way to maintain the scrolling functionality and also make it clickable?

What is the purpose of the linear layout here? It looks useless. I certainly have scrollviews that contain linearlayoits that contain clickable buttons working fine. I'd you want to respond to the user clicking the scrollview, then bin the linear layout and at the onclick listener to the scrollview. Click event may get consumed by the recycles thoigh, but there is a way round it — confused_at_times

Try setting the android:clickable="false property to each child of the ScrollView for the onClickListener
