When soft keyboard is present it's impossible to make EditText content scroll. Only with custom textListener that disallows touch event interception.
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:id="@+id/etText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="@dimen/spacing_normal"
android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/spacing_normal"
android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/spacing_normal"
android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/spacing_normal"
android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/spacing_normal"
android:ems="10"
android:hint="@string/hint_text"
android:inputType="text|textMultiLine"
android:overScrollMode="always"
android:maxLines="3"
android:scrollbars="vertical"/>
etText.setOnTouchListener { v, event ->
if (v.id == R.id.etText) {
v.parent.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true)
when (event.action and MotionEvent.ACTION_MASK) {
MotionEvent.ACTION_UP ->
v.parent.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(false)
}
}
false
}
