No scrolling in scrollview

i have a problem with my scrollview...

my xml:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">

         <ScrollView android:id="@+id/scrollView1" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent">
             <RelativeLayout [...]>
                 <TextView [...]></TextView>
                 <Spinner [...]></Spinner>
                 <Button [...]></Button>
                 <ImageButton [...]></ImageButton>
                 <TextView [...]></TextView>
                 <TableLayout [...]>
                     <TableRow [...]>
                         <TextView [...]></TextView>
                         <TextView [...]></TextView>
                         <TextView [...]></TextView>
                     </TableRow>
                     <TableRow [...]>
                         <AutoCompleteTextView [...]></AutoCompleteTextView>
                         <AutoCompleteTextView [...]></AutoCompleteTextView>
                         <Spinner [...]></Spinner>
                     </TableRow>
                 </TableLayout>
            </RelativeLayout>
         </ScrollView>
</LinearLayout>

When i try to scroll in my App it wont work... what did i do wrong? i deleted the properties from the elements. if you need them to solve the problem i can add them. i did it to get a better overview.

thanks, prexx

Please change to android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" to fill parent.

Thank you

If the ScrollView content doesn't take up the whole space, it will behave as a normal layout, i.e. non-scrollable.

If you still need the ScrollView to fill the entire screen (but still not scroll since there is not enough content) you could do as Nicholas Magnussen mentioned and add android:fillViewport="true"

Try adding the ScrollView as the parent. Swich place with LinearLayout. And dont forget to add the following on your ScrollView instead of the LinearLayout:

xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

And layout_widht and layout_height of the ScrollView should be set to "fill_parent"

This is my code which uses ScrollView in a calendar I made, could help you:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"

Try adding android:fillViewport="true" to your scrollView.

The height of your scrollView should probably be either match_parent or fill_parent aswell.
