I want to place both components under single verticle scrollbar, means i do not want scrollbar only for listview, currently i am achieving following layout through placing things in tableview but i want functionality like listview items..

Answer 1

Hi
You could make a "Section 1" to be a part of your list. Just add another type for your customized items list, add "section 1" as first element of your list , and your scrollbar will work as you desired.
I think that is the most convenient approach.
Regards!

You can programmatically add 'Section 1' as a header view to the ListView using ListView.addHeaderView(View v). See docs here.

Example code here:

View headerView = getLayoutInflater().inflate(
     R.layout.foo_list_header, null);

mListView = (ListView) findViewById(...);
mListView.addHeaderView(headerView);

setListAdapter(...);
