				I've been fighting with a scrollview since last night. I went from trying to anchor a couple buttons to the bottom of the screen in a scrollview to now I'm elbow deep in the source code trying to figure out what the heck fillViewport really does and why it isn't working in my layout.

				 Eariel18929y@ryanmhoffman, If I recall properly (but I doubt it) what it does is that if the content is shorter than the space you allotted to the ScrollView, it forces it to fill it. If your content is longer doesn't affect anything. I think I came to that conclusion by using several colors as background and using different datasets as content. Sometimes I just can't get it by reading the code.
