SearchView is not displayed on toolbar with nested Fragments - android

I must have read almost all the question and answers related to this, but still cannot get it to work. Below is the rough sketch of how the app looks.
Adding code below to give structure of the layout and where I might be doing wrong.
activity_main.xml
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout >
<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView>
</android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView>
<FrameLayout>
</FrameLayout>
bottom_nav_fragment.xml
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout >
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/liquor_type_tablayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:tabMode="scrollable">
<android.support.design.widget.TabItem
/>
<android.support.design.widget.TabItem
/>
<android.support.design.widget.TabItem
/>
<android.support.design.widget.TabItem
/>
<android.support.design.widget.TabItem
/>
</android.support.design.widget.TabLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/price_list_viewpager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />
For each of tab item, I have used a common fragment which will have different data in recyclerView.
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
tools:context="com.nandu.oru10ml.price_list.CommonPriceFragment">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView >
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
MainActivity.java
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// MenuInflater inflater = getS
Log.d("Activity Options", "inside onCreateOptionsMenu ");
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.search_item, menu);
return true;
}
BottomNavFragment.java
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Log.d("Fragment onCreate", "inside onCreate ");
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
Log.d("Fragment Options", "inside onCreateOptionsMenu ");
inflater.inflate(R.menu.search_item, menu);
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu,inflater);
}
CommonFragment.java
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Log.d("Fragment onCreate", "inside onCreate ");
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
Log.d("Fragment Options", "inside onCreateOptionsMenu ");
inflater.inflate(R.menu.search_item, menu);
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu,inflater);
}
and finally, search_item.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item
android:id="#+id/action_search"
android:title="Search for Brand"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_search_black_24dp"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView">
</item>
</menu>
The reason why it is not working would also help me understand the root cause.
This SearhView is applicable to 2 of the bottom nav Fragment and all of the nested Fragments inside, to search Recyclerview present in each of it.

setSupportActionBar should take the argument as a toolbar. So what you should do is, inside your fragment call
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar)

I do the same thing in another activities and i don't have NEP. What's happening here?
You are getting null point exception because your menu isn't instantiated. As i can see, your are calling showData before creating the menu. Call showData in the onCreateMenu. This should solve your problem.

Toolbar arrow don't work in PreferenceFragment in NavigationDrawer

I'm using PreferenceFragment that I launch from the NavigationDrawer. In the preferenceFragment I show the toolbar. All looks good, but when I press the arrow in the toolbar to come back it doesn't work. I can see in the log this:
D/ViewRootImpl: ViewPostImeInputStage ACTION_DOWN
But don't do nothing. The only way to come back is press button back in the device
Some help will be appreciated.
This is my code:
PreferenceFragment:
public class AnPreferenceActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.pref_with_actionbar);
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.content_frame, new SettingsPreference())
.commit();
}
public static class SettingsPreference extends PreferenceFragment {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
}
}

In onCreate() of your fragment first you should declare it has option Menu:
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
Then you should handle your own menu:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
// close fragment here
getActivity().getFragmentManager().popBackStack();
return true;
default:
break;
}
return false;
}
If you need more Menu create new menu item:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.fragment_menu, menu);
return true;
}
Accessing to toolbar from fragment is not good approach you should handle it in better way. There are lots of thread about this issue out there. (in fact Activity should handle Toolbar behaviour)

Android onOptionsItemSelected in fragment is not triggered for android OS below 5

I have an android.support.v4.app.Fragment in an AppCompatActivity.
I added a custom Menu in my fragment. Everything works as expected in Android 5 and 6. But if I try this on Android 4, although I can see the toolbar, when I tap the menu items nothing happens and it does not trigger onOptionsItemSelected
This is my fragment:
public class ProfileDetailFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}
#Nullable
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.profile_detail_fragment, container, false);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) v.findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
return v;
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_profile, menu);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem menuItem) {
switch (menuItem.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
getActivity().onBackPressed();
return true;
case R.id.tick:
save();
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(menuItem);
}
}
public void save(){
Toast.makeText(getContext(), "test", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
This is my fragment layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_master"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#android:color/white"
android:clickable="true">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
And this is my menu:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item android:id="#+id/tick"
android:title="OK"
app:showAsAction="always"
tools:ignore="AppCompatResource" />
</menu>
Maybe your activity is interfering between the menu and fragment.
There are two solutions:
Inflate and handle menu within your activity and communicate with the fragment
Specify to the fragment for handle the menu: Android - How to access actionbar's menu items in fragment class
*Reviweing your code: make sure you return false inside your onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) Activity's method

Getting null MenuItem View from a Custom Toolbar

I have read a lot of similar topics but none of the solutions works to me. I'm getting the MenuItem normaly, but when i try to get its view, I get a null view. I already tried put the code in the onPrepareOptionsMenu, get the view with MenuItemCompat, and other sutff.
activity_main.xml, where is the toolbar
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

onCreate method
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
toolbar = (Toolbar)findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
...
}
onCreateOptionsMenu method
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
MenuItem menuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_location); // here is fine, found the item
View view = menuItem.getActionView(); // here is null
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
Familiarize yourself with what a ActionView really is.
Just by assigning menuItem, you receive all the attributes about it, including the title, "Localização."
If you're trying to get the result of click "action_location," then onOptionsItemSelected may be the method call you need.

Icon Not Showing Up In Activity Bar

I'm having issues getting my action bar to show icons. It shows the text/title I set in the overflow menu (three dots), but no action. Here is my code, what am I missing?
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_vehicle_table);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.vehicle_table, new VehicleTable())
.commit();
}
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayOptions(ActionBar.DISPLAY_SHOW_CUSTOM);
getSupportActionBar().setCustomView(R.layout.custom_vehicle_action_bar_layout);
}
VehicleTable.java (my fragment)
public class VehicleTable extends Fragment {
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_vehicle_table, menu);
}
menu_vehicle_table.xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context="com.roadstruck.mobile.VehicleTable">
<item android:id="#+id/add_vehicle"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_add_white_24dp"
android:orderInCategory="100"
android:title="Add"
android:showAsAction="always"
/>
</menu>
custom_vehicle_action_bar_layout (custom textview for centering menu text)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="VEHICLES"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:id="#+id/mytext"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>
Try change android:showAsAction="always" to app:showAsAction="always"
