 Yes. A ScrollView wrapping a TextView is perfectly normal.

2009-05-28 Thread Mark Murphy

 I have a text view in the middle of a linear layout that I want
 vertical scrolling with I have set the flag for scrollbars vertical
 and it is showing up, but you can't actually scroll the text.

Try wrapping it in a ScrollView.

I did try that, and it was working in the layout plugin in eclipse but
then it would crash when I actually ran the plug in, I'll try again if
you say this will work

linear layout
imageview/
scrollview
textview/
/scrollview
/linear layout

in the plugin it was showing a scroll bar on my imageview which is
unexpected, and then it would crash when i actually run the app.   So
are you saying this will actually work and did I possibly just have a
typo somewhere?
