Toolbar at the bottom in CoordinatorLayout - android

I want to create simple CoordinatorLayout with RecyclerView and Toolbar, but the difference from standard solution is that Toolbar should be at the bottom, and should disappear when RecyclerView is scrolling to the bottom.
So I created simple layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
android:id="#+id/main_content"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar_bottom"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/recycler_view"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Of course Toolbar is on the top instead at the bottom. How can I fix that?

Wow, that's a cool idea, not sure about that but you could try to do this
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
android:id="#+id/main_content"
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.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/my_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar_bottom"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
But honestly I don't believe that's enough.
Maybe the solution is to give the Toolbar a custom app:layout_behavior as you would normally do with a FAB as I do in my blog article.
Please let me know how it turns out!
EDIT
I've just realized that maybe what you're looking for is the newly introduced bottom navigation bar!
I saw that there are plenty of third party libs that do that out-of-the-box or maybe try to implement it you own!

Try with this
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
android:id="#+id/main_content"
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.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/id_appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar_bottom"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"/>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/my_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" >
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

NestedScrollView not scrolling with CoordinatorLayout

Trying to scroll content within CoordinatorLayout with NestedScrollView is not working for following layout for fragment:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout 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:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
<androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fillViewport="true"
android:scrollbars="none"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="24dp"
android:orientation="vertical">
<!-- Scrollable content -->
</LinearLayout>
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
How can I make the content inside NestedScrollView scrollable? windowSoftInput is set to adjustResize for the hosting activity and the theme is Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar. Also the activity is not fullscreen.
Had to apply the workaround mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/36322516 as nothing else was working for me. So marking this answer as accepted until a working solution is posted as an answer

Android: Hide/Show Toolbar while scrolling doesn't work

I have this very simple layout:
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/root"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/ActionBarThemeOverlay">
<!--<include layout="#layout/include_toolbar_actionbar" />-->
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/background"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
I add a Fragment with a standard RecyclerView into fragment_container. Unfortunately, the Toolbar is always hide, I can't understand why?
Thank you very much for your help guys!
You could try this: solution from similar question.
Basically, you have to use android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView instead of ScrollView (in your fragment) and implement app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" inside your NestedScrollView xml.

Scrolling RecyclerView behind a AppBarLayout

I'm trying to achieve an effect like the videos in the "behavior section" at this URL ( Google Design official site ). It's the same effect of Google Photo, I guess, with a search bar on the top of the RecyclerView that disappear/appear on scrolling up/down
I don't know how to get it, I started with CoordinatorLayout and AppBarLayout, but I can't get the RecyclerView visible behind the AppBarLayout, it always remains white, covering the RecyclerView as show below ( result and code [edit: added image with layout layers] ).
Or it's a custom CoordinatorLayout.Behavior ?
Any help or suggestion would be appreciated, thank you
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:layout_marginBottom="16dp"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Sample layout
It is definitely a custom CoordinatorLayout.Behavior.
After some searches and readings ( most important, some inspirations, more inspirations, and the foundamentals ), I got what I wanted with the following layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_height="match_parent">

android:id="#+id/recyclerview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:clipToPadding="false"
android:paddingEnd="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingStart="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/grid_spacing_header"/>
<SearchView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

android:layout_marginStart="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/searchbar_top"
app:layout_behavior=".SearchBarBehavior"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
with my own SearchBarBehavior that extends CoordinatorLayout.Behavior
[code still incomplete]
try to set CoordinatorLayout also transparent

View covering action toolbar?

I am trying to create a tool bar associated with an EditText on my scren. Below are the contents of my xml file that I am trying to create:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:tool="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tool:context=".CreatePost"
android:id="#+id/create_post">
<include layout="#layout/app_bar" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/create_post_toolbar"/>
<!-- Edit text for typing status. Light gray placeholder. -->
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textColorHint="#d3d3d3"
android:layout_below="#id/create_post_toolbar"
android:hint="Update your friends!"
android:padding="10dp"
android:gravity="top"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:id="#+id/type_status"/>
</RelativeLayout>
app_bar.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
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" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".CreatePost">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar android:id="#+id/toolbar_universal"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
However, when I do this, my EditText covers my toolbar. Here is an image to show what happens:
I don't really understand why this is happening, is there anyway to align my EditText so it doesn't cover the toolbar? Thanks!
UPDATE: after adding in Arya's code into mine, my image looks like so, which makes the ActionBar too high. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Your layout, in its current definition, does not make much sense. I think the problem here is that the CoordinatorLayout has been assigned fitsSystemWindows=true. This makes it report its bottom from the very top of the status-bar. On the other hand, the RelativeLayout expects the bottom value from the bottom of the status-bar. This makes your EditText overlap the Toolbar by 25dp - the standard height of a status-bar. You can kind of confirm this by assigning android:fitsSystemWindows="true" to your RelativeLayout with id create_post. In this case, the bottom for CoordinatorLayout will be reported correctly, and the EditText will not overlap the Toolbar.
Usually, the CoordinatorLayout is set to be the parent, and the content (in your case the RelativeLayout) resides as a child of the CoordinatorLayout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_height="match_parent" android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".CreatePost">

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar_universal"
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
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/create_post">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textColorHint="#d3d3d3"
android:hint="Update your friends!"
android:padding="10dp"
android:gravity="top"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:id="#+id/type_status"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
If you have a specific reason for placing the CoordinatorLayout inside a RelativeLayout, please do share.
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

How to work with DrawerLayout in xml Android studio

Hi i know this question is too silly but this really matters for the application. Working with xml is the big deal. I am facing lots of problems.
Its not allowing me just to drag and drop the things, When i do, its placing in some other position.
I can able to manage inside Relative layout but DrawerLayout I can't able to do what i want. Here is my XML
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
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:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"/>
<!-- -->
<fragment
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/fragment"
android:name="corp.msf.com.facebookconnect.MainFragment"
tools:layout="#layout/fragment_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
I have Toolbar above and below that i want the fragment to come. But fragment occupies all the place ( overlaps on toolbar ) . How can i specify and how can i work with xmls easily. Any help welcomed. Thanks for reading.
Use for your toolbar and fragment.
Set the orientation of linear layout as vertical as below
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
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:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"/>
<fragment
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/fragment"
android:name="corp.msf.com.facebookconnect.MainFragment"
tools:layout="#layout/fragment_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
