Is it possible to set the name of added in XML layout from activity class, I need to make transition between fragments which are includes on the activity but only on and replace the fragment name by new one.
<fragment
android:name="com.example.harry.comparateur_de_prix.Accueil.AccueilFragment" //To change
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/fragment1">
</fragment>
Firstly you will need to change your Activity's XML layout to include a FrameLayout like this:
<!--Other XML layout elements, view-groups, views etc...; other stuff-->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/id_1"
android:layout_width="#dimen/fl_width"
android:layout_height="#dimen/fl_height">
</FrameLayout>
What we want to do now is; to be able to replace that FrameLayout in the Activity's XML layout above that we just added with the layout of one of your Fragment's layout file.
Now in your Activity file,
instantiate a FragmentManger object
obtain a fragmentTransaction instance via the fragmentManagers beginTransaction() method.
/*1)*/ FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
/*2)*/ FragmentTransaction ft = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
Then make these changes
ft.replace(R.id.id_1, new YourFragment());
ft.commit();
The argument YourFragment() will require you to insert an instance of one of your Fragments
, this will replace the FrameLayout's current layout with that of YourFragments(). We finally commit the fragmentTransaction.
If you want to replace the Fragment that the FrameLayout displays, simple begin a new fragment transaction and replace the frame layout with a new Fragment as shown above.
You want to use a FrameLayout instead here.
Then use FragmentTransaction to replace that ViewGroup by its ID attribute

When I try to replace an activity with a fragment, my app ends up rendering the fragment on top of the activity:
<!-- activity.xml -->
<CoordinatorLayout
android:id="#+id/coord_layout">
... stuff ...
</CoordinatorLayout>
here is the fragment:
<!-- fragment.xml -->
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/frag_layout">
... stuff ...
</LinearLayout>
Here is my Main class:
private void selectDrawerItem(MenuItem menuItem) {
Fragment f = fragment.newInstance();
FragmentManager fragManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.coord_layout, f).commit();
}
What am I doing wrong?
FragmentTransactions deal only with (dynamically created) Fragments. Any Views within the container ViewGroup you're using to hold the Fragment are not affected by a replace(). That is, the Fragment will just be added on top of them. If you want to completely replace the existing layout, you should replace the CoordinatorLayout in your activity.xml with an empty ViewGroup - usually a FrameLayout - and use the CoordinatorLayout as the layout for another Fragment that you can load upon startup, which can then be swapped out accordingly with your FragmentTransaction.
In my App, an Activity having a layout xml (first page) inflates onCreate method. On some event(like button click), i want to use Fragment class, and inflate layout xml via Fragments, on the above said layout xml as a container. like below , is my layout xml(first page).
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Button ... . >
</FrameLayout>
On Button click, i want to use Fragments within the same Layout container. So i use below code in Activity (on button click).
FragmentManager fManager= getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fTransaction = fManager.beginTransaction();
MyFragment frag = new MyFragment();
fTransaction.replace(R.id.container,frag);
fTransaction.commit();
Now, new layout via Fragment is visible but the old layout is also in the background and visible.
I don't want to use Fragments from the very first layout, as i am doing.
I want to inflate a layout xml first, then on some event, use Fragments layout, and again , from Fragments , i want to switch to Layout xml, means vice-a-versa.
like,
Layout xml inflate via setContentView() -> layout via Fragments -> Layout xml inflate via setContentView()
How to hide or make invisible layout xml (first page) when Fragment layout gets inflates and vice-a-versa ?
If the fragment covers the whole screen, you can set the background of the fragment a solid color.
I have a view pager that has a page for each subject in an array (English, Maths, Science, etc). The fragments in the view pager are all created from the same XML file. These fragments then have fragments added inside of them.
As all the parents inflate from the same XML file, I can not specify which fragment I want to add the child fragment to. I was wondering if their was a way to do this - Narrow the scope of the id maybe??
I think you want to implement multiple fragments with the capability to manipulate them depending on user selections. There is Google link Fragments
Review these code on that web page:
The many samples of Fragment and FragmentTransaction
Look at method showDetails in class TitlesFragment, for example.
If you want a working sample, look at Working with Android Fragments. Snippet from the webpage:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<fragment
android:id="#+id/headFrag"
android:name="com.intertech.HeaderFrag"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
<fragment
android:id="#+id/bodyFrag"
android:name="com.intertech.BodyFrag"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
And the code
...
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager ();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction ();
// work here to change Activity fragments (add, remove, etc.).
fragmentTransaction.add (R.id.myFrame, myFrag);
fragmentTransaction.commit ();
From above, notice there are 2 fragments in the layout. And fragmentTransaction.add method should specify parent container in R.id form.
Someday I may want/need to implement this. So far I implemented show/hide Layouts instead (not regretting it), and they can have IDs for me to manipulate.
Have fun and keep us posted, Tommy Kwee.
First. I suggest you to try to avoid child fragment, if you really doesn't have very good reason to use them.
But I don't understand where is problem. I don't see any problem if more fragment use the same XML for the inflate. You can call setArguments() on all parent fragment and put here some Bundle which can be used to recognize which fragment it is inside of it by getArguments().
I am creating an app with a WebView and an invisible menu on top of the page (it only appears when double clicked on the screen). That menu is a simple linear layout with buttons inside. Each button will start a different activity and I would like to make it so the menu would work in all activities.
I was thinking of creating a main layout that would consist of (invisible) menu on top and on the rest of the screen it would have the space for other activities. I want each activity to have its own layout aswell.
Maybe I could create that layout with menu on top and the rest of the space would be linear layout. Then I would call each activity inside that linear layout.
Is that possible and if it is, how to do it?
Any help will be appreciated.
as i understand you can do it like that :
1- create a class which extneds LinearLayout for the menu.
2- create a class extends activity and inside of it create that menu view
3- all your other activities should extends the activity you created in step 2.
4- inside all other activities onStart you should add menu view to the screen
but i strongly suggest you to use navigation Drawer.
http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/navigation-drawer.html and
http://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/nav-drawer.html
You can achieve this by creating one Activity which have your invisible layout at top and a FrameLayout as container for your Fragments :
MainActivit.java
public class MainActivity(){
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
}
}
and activity_main.xml
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/invisible_menu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" >
<!-- your other views here -->
</LinearLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/invisible_menu" />
</RelativeLayout>
That's the MainActivity which will hold all your Fragments. For using Fragments in your app you should check Android Developers - Fragments
Edit: Here is how you can add/replace Fragments via code:
To add your first Fragment simply call :
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ExampleFragment fragment = new ExampleFragment();
transaction.add(R.id.fragment_container, fragment);
transaction.commit();
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
And after that to replace the content with another Fragment , you should do something like this in your onClick :
// Create new fragment and transaction
Fragment newFragment = new ExampleFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
So basically you should use FragmentTransaction.add() and FragmentTransaction.replace() .
If you want to support older versions of Android (i.e. avoiding fragments), you can use an <include> to add the menu layout to each activity. You'll need to hook up the click events in the onCreate of each activity, though you can encapsulate this code in another class.
I have an activity that contains a linear layout and a fragment placeholder.
<RelativeLayout >
<LinearLayout/>
<fragment />
</RelativeLayout>
In onCreate() for the activity I place a fragment in the fragment placeholder and multiple fragments in the linear layout. This works fine until the phone goes through a configuration change (e.g. orientation change).
I do nothing special for an orientation or configuration change. What happens is really strange: the fragment placeholder is populated correctly but the linear layout now contains duplicate fragments. i.e. if the linear layout had fragment1 and fragment2 in it before, it will now show fragment1 fragment2 fragment1 fragment2. What is going on here?
As an additional note: I am using reflection to create the fragment objects, but I don't think that should change anything.
The framework will automatically add the fragments to your view when the orientation is changed. Only execute the add fragment transactions when the paramBundle is null.
Example (using support library):
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle paramBundle) {
super.onCreate(paramBundle);
if (paramBundle == null) {
FragmentManager localFragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction localFragmentTransaction = localFragmentManager
.beginTransaction();
localFragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragmentHost,
new MyFragment(), MY_FRAGMENT_TAG);
localFragmentTransaction.commit();
}
}
