Today i am going to describing a powerful tool of android, Horizontal Listview with complete source in the end.
Horizontal ListView sometimes is very useful and it save our day. HorizontalScrollView is nothing but a widget, If you add more element than its visible area then it start scrolling horizontally. Bit main disadvantage is that you can not perform click on the base of position quite easily

 import android.app.Activity;  
 import android.os.Bundle;  
 import android.view.View;  
 import android.view.View.OnClickListener;  
 import android.widget.Button;  
 import android.widget.LinearLayout;  
 import android.widget.Toast;  
 public class SecondActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {  
  Button btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4;  
  public LinearLayout middle;  
  @Override  
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {  
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);  
     setContentView(R.layout.main);  
  btn1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn1);  
  btn1.setOnClickListener(this);  
  btn2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn2);  
  btn2.setOnClickListener(this);  
  btn3 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn3);  
  btn3.setOnClickListener(this);  
  try {  
   btn4 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn4);  
   btn4.setOnClickListener(this);  
  } catch (Exception e) {  
   e.getMessage();  
  }  
  }  
  @Override  
  public void onClick(View v) {  
  if (v.getId() == R.id.btn1) {  
   Toast.makeText(this, "Second Act Btn1 Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)  
    .show();  
  } else if (v.getId() == R.id.btn2) {

    .show();  
  } else if (v.getId() == R.id.btn3) {  
   Toast.makeText(this, "Second Act Btn 3 Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)

  1. umm....I don't think this is a horizontalListview. This is just a horizontal scroll view with some item inside. It is different from what listview does. (at least listview can reuse view when you scroll)

    1. Yes , i do agree. Horizontal ListView does not do what ListView do. ListView recycle view with Adapter.
