How do I use a ViewPager in conjuction with bottom tab? - android

I'm trying to create a MainActivity with 3 tabs. In the first tab there is a ViewPager that displays a card that can be changed by swiping left/right. The second and third tabs each contains a simple Fragment displaying a TextView.
I'm using roughike/BottomBar and ncapdevi/FragNav library to achieve this. The Problem is FragNav doesn't work if the container is a viewpager and the card fragment doesn't work properly if I use something like a FrameLayout.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/appbar_padding_top"
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.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="0dp"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />

For anyone who is looking for a solution to encapsulate a fragment inside a tab navbar of any kind, I kinda have a workaround. In later android API (IIRC 21) fragments inside fragments is allowed so you can ignore this but for previous api levels you can try to hide the views instead using
view.hide();

SupportMapFragment inside of ViewPager with ScrollingViewBehavior inside of CoordinatorLayout jumps on render

Here is my layout.
The main idea is a ViewPager with few fragments and action bar above.
I sucessfully added a fragment with a SupportMapFragment inside of it.
But I ran into a problem in android 4.0.4.
When I use this layout below, my map frequently jumps over AppBarLayout. When jump occurs, I can see black rectangle on bot and it's size visually equal to AppBarLayout size.
These jumps occur with every map update(zooming, moving and markers add/edit/remove).
<?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:id="#+id/main_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".activities.MainActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
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.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
style="#style/AppTheme.TabLayout" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"/>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
What I've tried:
If I remove
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
then my map fills all the view space(expected result) and no jumping
occurs.
If I change CoordinatorLayout with LinearLayout, jumping stops as well.
But I want to save features of CoordinatorLayout, so the 2nd way doesn't fit all my needs. The first one requires me to calculate top offset and or hardcode top margin, what I don't think is a good idea.
I suppose, that the problem is, when map updates it places in (0,0) and then
with this
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
is moved to right position. But I am not quite sure.
Maybe someone has already met this problem and can advise me how can I fix map jumping issue?

How to add a TabView beneath AppBar without shadow

In my application I have an issue where I want to have high level navigational control from a navigation drawer, and page level control within a TabLayout within a fragment. This however causes issues with the shadow rendering from the AppBar onto the fragment.
Here's the basics of what my layouts and code does. At the root I have this simple 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"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".MainAppActivity">
<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"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<include layout="#layout/content_main" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
When my navigation drawer is selected I inflate the fragment into "content_main"
this.getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.addToBackStack(tag)
.replace(R.id.content_main_layout, fragment, tag)
.commit();
The fragment being put into content_main contains a layout with my TabView and a view pager:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/fragment_github_issues"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/github_issues_tab_layout"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="top"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay"/>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/github_issues_viewpager"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
What's the a good best practice to fix the issue? Is including TabLayout to live within the top level AppBar and just disabling the view based on the page an acceptable implementation?
First you need to change the view hierarchy to something like this:
FrameLayout
-CoordinatorLayout -> content
-Toolbar
Fix Toolbar elevation to be exact with the AppBarLayout, too get rid of the shadow but keep the z-order of the Toolbar:
int appBarLayoutElevation = ViewCompat.getElevation(mAppBarLayout);
getActivity().getSupportActionBar().setElevation(appBarLayout);
Similar example I have worked in my blog post.

How to create Listview inside CoordinatorLayout?

I want to create a layout with:
toolbar on top
tablayout with 3 tabs
two of the tabs show a list
one of the tab shows a grid
On scrolling the list/grid the toolbar should collapse and the tablayout should go on top. I have this worked out but I am working with a dummy list of the type:
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
....>
<LinearLayout
...
/>
...
.... copied 10 times
</NestedScrollView>
I now want to use a real list, like a listview and a gridview. What do I use? Is it okay to use a listview inside a NestedScrollView?
You should use RecyclerView instead of Listview. Take a look at this android developer blog post about the Design Support Library [LINK]
Also never use a ListView / GridView / RecyclerView in ScrollView or NestedScrollView. [LINK]
try it in listview:
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
<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>
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />

CoordinatorLayout and hiding the toolbar

I'm using a single activity - multiple fragments structure.On the activity i'm using v7 toolbar as action bar . I have sever fragments with viewpagers , some with tabs as well.In one of my fragments i have recyclerview . My goal is when i'm scrolling i wanna collapse the bar and hide the floating action button.My floating button is on inside a CoordinatorLayout so it can be displayed properly.But this is inside the layout of the fragment(which is part of a viewpager) , and the activity_main.xml has root element another CoordinatorLayout. Does the fragment CL intercepts the work of the CL inside the layout of the activity,because when i scroll the recycler nothing happens.
Should i use new toolbar for every fragment or i can use one in the
activity and implement different behavior for into fragments?
Can anyone references any examples of using CoordinatorLayout and
collapsing the bar within nested fragments?
activity_main.xml
<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:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<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"
tools:context=".MainActivity" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
The work of the main CoordinatorLayout wasn't intercepted.Adding app:layout_behavior to the frame layout which is fragment container did the job.
Looks like this now:
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
tools:context=".MainActivity" />

How to hide ActionBar while scrolling ListView in android?

I need to create a GUI with a ListView and an ActionBar which will hide when scrolling down and when scrolling up it must reappear.
The following guides didn't help me:
https://mzgreen.github.io/2015/06/23/How-to-hideshow-Toolbar-when-list-is-scrolling%28part3%29/
https://github.com/ksoichiro/Android-ObservableScrollView
I need something like this:
If you would like to obtain a list with this behaviour, you should:
add the design support library with compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0'
Use a CoordinatorLayout with a Toolbar where you have to define app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
Use a RecyclerView instead of a ListView. As described here ListView and the GridView have the expected behavior with the CoordinatorLayout only with API>21. In this case you have to use setNestedScrollingEnabled(true);
The official blog post shows this case:
<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_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<! -- Your Scrollable View -->
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
...
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways">
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
I would recommend using the new support design library by Google.
Include it in your dependecies:
compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0'
and then use the AppBarLayout together with NestedScrollView.
For your Toolbar define app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways", which says it will disappear as you scroll, and come back immediately if you scroll up (meaning you don't have to scroll all the way up).
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.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:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
Use [CoordinatorLayout]:https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/CoordinatorLayout.html, which allow co-oridanation among child views. it's like, act(AppBarLayout->scrolling) on some view when there is a behaviour observed(ListView->scroll) in another view.
Make Listview nestedScrollingEnabled, works for >API 21
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"
Trigger layout behaviour to appbar scrolling.
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
Any layout(ToolBar/TabLayout/any), which is required to show-hide/scroll, place it inside AppBarLayout, and enabled scroll flag.
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
you should use CoordinatorLayout for this task. It is part of the support design library. Here, in the CoordinatorLayout and the app bar section, you can find an example
