Scroller

public class Scroller
extends Object

This class encapsulates scrolling. You can use scrollers (Scroller or OverScroller) to collect the data you need to produce a scrolling animation—for example, in response to a fling gesture. Scrollers track scroll offsets for you over time, but they don't automatically apply those positions to your view. It's your responsibility to get and apply new coordinates at a rate that will make the scrolling animation look smooth.

Here is a simple example:

 private Scroller mScroller = new Scroller(context);
 ...
 public void zoomIn() {
     // Revert any animation currently in progress
     mScroller.forceFinished(true);
     // Start scrolling by providing a starting point and
     // the distance to travel
     mScroller.startScroll(0, 0, 100, 0);
     // Invalidate to request a redraw
     invalidate();
 }

To track the changing positions of the x/y coordinates, use computeScrollOffset(). The method returns a boolean to indicate whether the scroller is finished. If it isn't, it means that a fling or programmatic pan operation is still in progress. You can use this method to find the current offsets of the x and y coordinates, for example:

if (mScroller.computeScrollOffset()) {
     // Get current x and y positions
     int currX = mScroller.getCurrX();
     int currY = mScroller.getCurrY();
    ...
 }

Summary

Inherited methods

From class java.lang.Object Object clone() Creates and returns a copy of this object. boolean equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. void finalize() Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. final Class<?> getClass() Returns the runtime class of this Object. int hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object. final void notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. final void notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. String toString() Returns a string representation of the object. final void wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the notify() method or the notifyAll() method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed. final void wait(long millis) Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the notify() method or the notifyAll() method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed. final void wait() Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the notify() method or the notifyAll() method for this object.
