Open not working with RecyclerView.Adapter

Hi, i want to open by default some rows from my RecyclerView.Adapter but is not working. Any idea? I tried postdelayed but didn't work for me.

I have the same issue. I've made some debugging and from what I could understand the problem is in Rect computeSurfaceLayoutArea(boolean open) method. This is because at that point getMeasuredWidth() of Viewclass will return 0 which as a result will affect the forceSettleCapturedViewAt(int finalLeft, int finalTop, int xvel, int yvel) method of the ViewDragHelper which detects that it doesn't have to scroll anything.

Any solution for this?

A quick fix for this is to use post() method on the view. I did something like this:

holder.swipeLayout.post(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    // We start the swipe tutorial only if the swipe is in a closed state
                    // If it is in a open state, it means the user already opened it and knows how to
                    if (holder.swipeLayout.getOpenStatus() == SwipeLayout.Status.Close) {
                        holder.swipeLayout.toggle();
                    }
                }
            });

Would be good if an optimization was done directly in the library to ensure the view is already measured when calling open,close,toggle,etc. methods.
