Disable scroll animation in RecyclerView

Question

I have a RecyclerView which basically does nothing other than scroll programmatically. The problem is I need this RecyclerView to scroll to position with no animation. This is the code I'm using.

((LinearLayoutManager)recyclerView.getLayoutManager()).scrollToPositionWithOffset(position, offset);

Thanks in advance.

`RecyclerView` doesn't have a 'scrollable' attribute by the look of it. Also I don't actually want to stop scrolling just want to disable the animation when scrollTo is called. — Naveen Dissanayake, Aug 15 '17 at 05:40

You can animate itemView yourself, use two variable startPosition and endPosition for starting position and end position and animate(viewHolder, false) is a function where you can add or remove animation

public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
        final DataModel dataModel = dataList.get(position);

        viewHolder.textTittle.setText(dataModel .getTitle());    

        if (startPosition <=position  && position<= endPosition) {
            animate(viewHolder, false);
        } else {
            animate(viewHolder, true);
        }    

    }

animate function like

public void animate(RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder) {
            final Animation animAnticipateOvershoot = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(context,
                    R.anim.animator_for_bounce);
            viewHolder.itemView.setAnimation(animAnticipateOvershoot);
        }

I don't actually want to animate it, scrolling animation when I use `scrollToPosition()`. — Naveen Dissanayake, Aug 15 '17 at 07:13
