I Have created a GridLayout with CardView inside a Viewpager. My layout was linear layout and to make it scrollable I wrapped whole in a ScrollView. But I can't scroll my screen. When I try to scroll nothing happens. How I can make these grids items scrollable. I am a beginner at android.

My Gridlayout XML File.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<android.support.v7.widget.GridLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="150dp"
        app:columnCount="2"
        app:rowCount="4">

Remove static height of the GridLayout then it will works fine.

Create a Scroll View
Inside that create your Grid Layout.
When you add item to grid layout, depend on Column count Grid layout will start to scroll.

Example:

<ScrollView

    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="com.groot.rang.MainActivity">

    <LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:weightSum="10" >

    <GridLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_weight = "1"
        android:columnCount="3"
        android:rowCount="5"
        android:alignmentMode="alignMargins"
        android:columnOrderPreserved="false"
        android:padding="10dp">

        //Your grid items..

    </GridLayout>

    </LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
