Mpandroidchart: BarChart Layout Height

[Pertence]

I am trying to create a bar chart inside a fragment, but the chart height is much smaller than expected. Also, changing the layout height to match_parent, fill_parent or wrap_content doesn't affect, but when the height is set to a number, it works properly, however that is not the solution that I want. What is the problem?
Here is the app image

post your xml

[Pertence]

Below, there is the fragment xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context=".MainActivity$PlaceholderFragment">

    <com.github.mikephil.charting.charts.BarChart
        android:id="@+id/barchart"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

</RelativeLayout>

Below there is the activity xml

<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:id="@+id/main_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true" tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout android:id="@+id/appbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:paddingTop="@dimen/appbar_padding_top"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">

        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay"
            app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways">

            <Spinner android:id="@+id/spinner" app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
        </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

    </android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

    <android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView android:id="@+id/container"
        android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />

</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

What happens if you change the NestedScrollView to a framelayout?

[Pertence]

It crashes the app

Here is the logcat

Hi @PhilJay, is there any solution/clean workaround to this problem yet? I'm having the same issue with my NestedScrollView.

[alyleite]

try android:fillViewport="true" in your scroll view.

I solved my problem

Thank you @alyleite, you are right! It works.

I needed to create a <View height=400dp /> with <BarChart /> in a LinearLayout just to give it height :-/

[harshitha0193]

this issue is still persisting

[harshitha0193]

why should we give a fixed height for barchart always ?
