Horizontal and Vertical Scrolling is not working.

ChipInput inside scrollview/nested scrollview doesn't working. If anyone has solution. Please share it.

[pchmn]

I don't understand very well what's not working.

When you use maxRows like this, it is not working ?

<com.pchmn.materialchips.ChipsInput
        android:id="@+id/chips_input"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:hint="Enter a name"
        app:maxRows="3" />

Because if you look at the sample app, the maxRows attribute is successfully used.

The bug occurred just by using the ChipsInput view in a ScrollView in your xml layout ?

Can you provide the code that is responsible of the bug ? To reproduce it.

[chnouman]

yes it only occurs when we are in Scrollview i changed my layout now its ok. but back button on key board don't remove last chip please help me.

[MoeHamoud]

@chnouman its in the docs

chipsInput.addChip(ChipInterface chip);
// or
chipsInput.addChip(Object id, Drawable icon, String label, String info);
// or
chipsInput.addChip(Drawable icon, String label, String info);
// or
chipsInput.addChip(Object id, Uri iconUri, String label, String info);
// or
chipsInput.addChip(Uri iconUri, String label, String info);
// or
chipsInput.addChip(String label, String info);

[chnouman]

[chnouman]

[chnouman]

@MoeHamoud @pchmn still back button is not working when i try to remove last chip from chips.

[pchmn]

I will test it and try to reproduce the bug.
I will return to you when I found a fix

[chnouman]

ok

[chnouman]

Hy can you please tell me how to add chip automatically or programmatcaly without selecting from drop down list.

[MoeHamoud]

@chnouman I'm not sure you even need this library for such functionality.

I've done this before and if what you want is what I think it is then this is how I would go about it.

• Create a layout file (call it, textview_chip.xml, for example) with a FrameLayout as the root element and a TextView inside it
• Style the TextView or even the FrameLayout so it looks like a chip. I'm not going to go into detail about this but there are resources out there to help you by using an xml drawable and setting it as the background of the TextView or FrameLayout
• You could then create a customView group (call it, CustomChipView for example) that extends FrameLayout and inflate the textview_chip.xml
• From there, you can write public functions inside the CustomChipView, for instance, setChipText(), setChipAvatar(), etc. Depending on what data you want to present to the user
• You could then instantiate your CustomChipView and use, for example, linearLayout.addView(CustomChipView) to add it to your layout programmatically. You could then set an onClick listener on the CustomChipView which would remove it from the linearLayout.

This is one way that I've "faked" chips.

You can also use the same approach inside a recyclerView. You wouldn't need to create a customView group to inflate the textview_chip.xml layout but you would just inflate it inside the recyclerView's adapter.

Just another option for you, maybe someone else can help you in terms of using this library to achieve the functionality you're after.

hy sorry i was unable to clearly explain my problem actually the problem is in my scenario the user go to contacts activity and mark some contacts and say ok and come back to parent activity now on parent activity i want to put all those selected contacts in chips.

[MoeHamoud]

Well you need to store the selected contacts in a list and then pass it back to the parent activity. From there, loop through your list of contacts and add them as chips to your view.

ChipInput not working in scroll view , chips adapter not show

[nicolasrodf]

You can clear focus from chip_input listening scroll status of scrollView:

scrollView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnScrollChangedListener(new OnScrollChangedListener() {
@OverRide
public void onScrollChanged() {
chipsInput.clearFocus();
}
});

This clear focus and you can scrolling
