 <p>Horizontal Scroll View is only good if you have just a few items. If you have a lot, you should consider an alternative: a <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html" rel="nofollow"><strong>ViewPager</strong></a> (in case you wish to show only a single item at a time), or a third party library like <a href="https://github.com/sephiroth74/HorizontalVariableListView" rel="nofollow"><strong>"Horizontal Variable ListView"</strong></a>. I'm sure there are other alternatives.</p> <p>note that the Gallery view is very inefficient and buggy so you shouldn't even try to use it. </p>
