Android NestedScrollView has wrong size after app:layout_behavior

I had this problem and fixed adding:

android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"

to the NestedScrollView. Then it starts behaving correctly, as I explained here also. Of course the NestedScrollView needs some kind of child (i.e. it must not be empty), otherwise the toolbar won't collapse.

Update

While this works well with small content, I noticed it has some problems showing longer contents, e.g. like the full activity_detail.xml above. The problem is that you can't scroll to the very bottom part of the content - it is unreachable at the bottom.

From my tests I could find that the missing part is as big as the collapsed toolbar (or at least that's what it looks to me). To fix this is issue, and having a solution reliable for both small and big contents, you should add a layout_marginBottom to the ScrollView, so that it gets measured and releases the missing bottom part. Thus:

android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"
android:layout_marginBottom="?attr/actionBarSize"

or whatever size you gave to the Toolbar.

But still

Scrolling with small contents with this solution, even if the content is justly aligned at the top, isn't really smooth as scrolling with large contents. I'll use until a library fix comes.

Update2

Looks like this was fixed in v22.2.1 .
