03/08/2019, 3:51 AMyea, thought so, well then it needs to be viewgroup.removeView(toBeCachedView)
okay this is going to be a mess 😞

03/08/2019, 3:52 AMyes, hence modifing the original layout, thats going to be trouble

03/08/2019, 3:53 AMBut the original layout is going to be recycled, why is it causing trouble?
u
ursus
03/08/2019, 3:54 AMnot sure, never tried transfering view from one viewgroup to another
how about recyclerview instead of flowlayout, but with flowlayout manager, and wrap_content height to make it unscrollable and share viewpool

03/08/2019, 3:55 AMThe action of detaching emoji view should be perform at the time which the original layout is being scrolled off screen, so that onViewRecycled will be called on the parent view.
Using a flowLayoutManager can be a way, but I think the effort required is similar to this approach
