But their visibility are Gone . When the soft-keyboard open I don't have a problem whit the first exitText , when I click on Next button of the soft-jetboard nestedScrollView scrolled to the bottom of next editText and if user write a wrong input to my editText the textView of them will be visible and show the error of input to the user.

BUT PROBLEM IS .

They are below of their editText . How I can scroll nestedScrollView to the bottom of the textView ?

Answer 1

You could just use TextInputEditText and TextInputLayout instead of EditText and TextView .

The scrolling behavior will be managed by Android's system and should result correctly.

Also, it will simplify your code:

    <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
        android:id="@+id/text_input_layout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="center"
        app:errorEnabled="true">

        <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
            android:id="@+id/text_input_edit_text"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:hint="Hint"/>

    </com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

You can set and remove errors with:

Java

text_input_layout.setError("Error message");
text_input_layout.setError(null);

Kotlin

text_input_layout.error = "Error message"
text_input_layout.error = null
