Prevent clicks on actionbar menu - android

I want to create some animation on my activity and for this reason I need to be able to show the actionbar menu icon (the three dots one) but in same time to block programmatically any click event on it.
I need something alike:
setClicksOnActionbarMenuEnable(false); // any click on my actionbar menu icon will be disabled
doMyAnimation();
setClicksOnActionbarMenuEnable(true); // actionbar menu icon will accept again clicks.
I have searched everywhere and couldn't find any way to accomplish this.

I got this solution:
final Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) this.findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
final View child = toolbar.getChildAt(2);
if (child instanceof ActionMenuView)
{
final ActionMenuView actionMenuView = ((ActionMenuView) child);
actionMenuView.getChildAt(actionMenuView.getChildCount() - 1).setEnabled(false);
}
If don't have a navigation drawer replace with:
final View child = toolbar.getChildAt(1);

How to prevent NavigationDrawer from being opened by gesture, but allow from hamburger icon in Support Design Library 23.1.1.1

I have a ViewPager where pages contain charting views which react to sliding movements. Due to this i resorted to changing the page by sliding from the edge of the screen. But that leaves me with the problem that this is also the gesture to open the NavigationDrawer.
Until now i used the following code to achieve this:
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
SetContentView(GetLayoutId());
Toolbar = FindViewById<Toolbar>(Resource.Id.toolbar);
if (Toolbar != null)
{
// set this flag so the colors colorPrimaryDark and android:statusBarColor have an effect
// setting android:statusBarColor to transparent causes the drawer to be dran underneath a translucent status bar
Window.AddFlags(WindowManagerFlags.DrawsSystemBarBackgrounds);
// make the toolbar the replacement of the action bar
SetSupportActionBar(Toolbar);
}
// add the hamburger icon
m_DrawerLayout = FindViewById<DrawerLayout>(Resource.Id.drawer_layout);
var actionBarDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, m_DrawerLayout, Toolbar, Resource.String.empty, Resource.String.empty);
m_DrawerLayout.AddDrawerListener(actionBarDrawerToggle);
// make sure the drawer can't be opened by swiping, to do this we set the lock mode to closed
// but if we just do this, it can't be closed by swiping either, so set the lock mode to unlocked when the drawer is opened, and locked again when it's closed
m_DrawerLayout.DrawerOpened += (object sender, DrawerLayout.DrawerOpenedEventArgs e) =>
{
m_DrawerLayout.SetDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LockModeUnlocked);
};
m_DrawerLayout.DrawerClosed += (object sender, DrawerLayout.DrawerClosedEventArgs e) =>
{
m_DrawerLayout.SetDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LockModeLockedClosed);
};
m_DrawerLayout.SetDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LockModeLockedClosed);
//calling sync state is necessay or else the hamburger icon wont show up
actionBarDrawerToggle.SyncState();
}
It worked as intended, until i updated to the Android Support Design Library 23.1.1.1, now setting the lock mode to closed also prevents the menu from being opened by tapping on the hamburger icon.
Looking at the source code for the latest version of the ActionBarDrawerToggle class, this does indeed seem to be the new intended behavior. It's toggle() method now looks like this:
private void toggle() {
int drawerLockMode = mDrawerLayout.getDrawerLockMode(GravityCompat.START);
if (mDrawerLayout.isDrawerVisible(GravityCompat.START)
&& (drawerLockMode != DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_OPEN)) {
mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
else if (drawerLockMode != DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED) {
mDrawerLayout.openDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
}
whereas it previously just checked the drawer's opened/closed state.
This is unfortunate, since it will now take a workaround to achieve the old behavior. Perhaps the simplest thing to do is just to revert to an older version of the support library. However, if you want to keep the newest version, one possible solution is as follows.
First remove the Toolbar argument from the ActionBarDrawerToggle constructor call.
actionBarDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this,
m_DrawerLayout,
Resource.String.empty,
Resource.String.empty);
This will cause the Activity's OnOptionsItemSelected() method to fire upon clicking the toggle, since you've set the Toolbar as the support ActionBar. We will also need to call SupportActionBar.SetDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true) to actually show the toggle, since the ActionBarDrawerToggle class interacts somewhat differently with an ActionBar than it does with a Toolbar, with respect to their child Views.
In the Activity's OnOptionsItemSelected() method, we then simply unlock the drawer before calling the toggle's own OnOptionsItemSelected() method, which handles the opening and closing of the drawer.
public override bool OnOptionsItemSelected (IMenuItem item)
{
switch (item.ItemId)
{
case Android.Resource.Id.Home:
m_DrawerLayout.SetDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LockModeUnlocked);
actionBarDrawerToggle.OnOptionsItemSelected(item);
return true;
...
}
...
}
Your actionBarDrawerToggle will need to be a field of your Activity, and you can remove the DrawerOpened handler.

CollapsingToolbarLayout in Fragment title not set when collapsed

I have a toolbar in CollapsingToolbarLayout inside AppBarLayout. I set title in onResume(). When I open activity and fragment, the title is shown correctly. But if I collapse it and press home button and open it again, it is not there anymore. However if I press home button when layout is expanded, the title appears as expected. Here is the code of setting the title:
((AppCompatActivity)getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
final ActionBar actionBar = ((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar();
if (actionBar != null) {
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
actionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
actionBar.setTitle("TITLE HERE");
toolbar.setTitle("TITLE HERE");
}
What is wrong? Is it a bug in support library or am I doing something wrong?
try setting the title of the collapsing toolbar layout. Example:
collapsingToolbarLayout = (CollapsingToolbarLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.collapsing_toolbar_layout);
collapsingToolbarLayout.setTitle("title");

Add and Remove views from Toolbar depending on Fragment Displayed

I have an application, that at the moment only has 2 fragments. Fragment 1, this has the nav drawer and the title.
Fragment 2 requires a custom view as adding menu items won't work as I need alignment. So I add the view as follows:
ActionBar.LayoutParams params = new ActionBar.LayoutParams(
ActionBar.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ActionBar.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
Gravity.LEFT);
//Remove nav drawer "hamburger"
mMainActivity.mActionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
//Remove title from Toolbar
bar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
LayoutInflater layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(getActivity());
View postToolBar = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.upload_content_toolbar, null);
mMainActivity.mToolBar.addView(postToolBar, params);
That is fine and it displays correctly. However, when I want to return to the previous fragment Fragment 1, I then call mMainActivity.mToolBar.removeView(postToolBar); I call this on return to Fragment 1 as the user can navigate either by the back button or by button in the postToolBar. However, the view is still in place. I can't get rid of it. I have now tried setting the visibility to GONE but that won't work either.
This was pretty simple with the Action Bar, however things seem to have gotten a bit complicated with the Tool bar.
I must add that in each of my two fragments I extend a BaseFragment in which I declare the toolbar view.
Can any one help or send me in the direction of a tutorial?
This is how i achieved it at this time:
in activity onCreateView();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowCustomEnabled(true); // enable overriding the default toolbar_home layout
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false); // disable the default title element here (for centered title)
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);
cutomToolbarView=getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.custom_toolbar_home, null);
getSupportActionBar().setCustomView(cutomToolbarView);
}
and here is two simple method to do the magic
public void setToolbarTitleEnabled(String title) {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowCustomEnabled(false);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(title);
}
public void setCustomToolbarEnabled() {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowCustomEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
}
then simply when you can change actionbar like these:
when to select HomeFragment.java or whatever in your case
setToolbarTitleEnabled(CURRENT_TAG);
and when to select other fragment:
setCustomToolbarEnabled();

Gmail tablet like Actionbar items

I'm trying to build an app with a split actionbar/toolbar like in the Gmail app.
Is there any view element for this behaviour or do I have to write such a toolbar myself?
The search icon is moving with the master fragment when opening the slidingDrawer.
To accomplish this you can add one of the new Toolbar widgets to each of your fragments layouts. The new Toolbar class was designed to be much more flexible than a traditional Actionbar and will work well in this split design. This post is a good overview for implementing a standalone Toolbar. For posterity's sake I've included the sample code for it below.
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.blah);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_awesome_toolbar);
// Set an OnMenuItemClickListener to handle menu item clicks
toolbar.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new Toolbar.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
// Handle the menu item
return true;
}
});
// Inflate a menu to be displayed in the toolbar
toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.your_toolbar_menu);
}

Remove back button from SearchView in toolbar AppCompat

How can I remove the back button icon when search view shows up in Toolbar (AppCompat)?
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tool_bar);
// Set an OnMenuItemClickListener to handle menu item clicks
toolbar.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new Toolbar.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
// Handle the menu item
return true;
}
});
// Inflate a menu to be displayed in the toolbar
toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.menu_main);
toolbar.setTitle("");
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
// this works for normal back button but not for one appears on tapping SearchView
actionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
Use:
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
toolbar.setNavigationIcon(null);
OR
toolbar.setNavigationIcon(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.transparent));
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
There is no way to remove the back arrow from a SearchView.
you can try finding it yourself
in the class (of the support.v7 lib or the main Android project) it looks like this:
mCloseButton = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.search_close_btn);
But it's a private member and the visibility changes upon text input
