I have a Fragment with MapView in it. I add Fragment to container with following code:
Fragment fragment = new MyLocationFragment()
String tag= fragment.getClass().getName();
FragmentTransaction transaction = fm.beginTransaction();
transaction.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.slide_in_right, R.anim.slide_out_left,
R.anim.slide_in_left, R.anim.slide_out_right);
transaction.replace(R.id.container, fragment, tag);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
Now when user presses back, this Fragment is supposed to be removed from FragmentManager. But if execute this code :
Fragment fragment = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(MyLocationFragment.class.getName());
It never returns null, even if I replace other fragments in same container. What can I do to remove Fragment from FragmentManager? Am I doing something wrong here ?
When an activity is destroyed, its FragmentManagersaves out its list of fragments. When the activity is recreated, the new FragmentManager retrieves the list and recreates the listed fragments to make everything as it was before.
[Refer to book "Android Programming The Big Nerd Ranch Guide" P150]
So your should remove fragment from fragmentmanager.
Refer to this Q&A Remove old Fragment from fragment manager
Your question maybe duplicate with thisHow to get a Fragment to remove itself, i.e. its equivalent of finish()?

Working with fragments I've always used replace() for my transactions, but I wish I didn't have to save instance states anymore to restore a fragment's view and prevent reloading when coming back to that fragment. So, I've decided to work with add(). The thing is when I add another fragment, the previous fragment view remains in the background and that's fine (that's the behavior I expected), but the problem is I can actually interact with the views in the background. Example:
Fragment A has a Button
Fragment B has a TextView
When I add Fragment A and later add Fragment B, I'm able to click on Fragment A's Button, even staying on Fragment B's view.
I'm using:
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction =
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().
add(getRootViewContainer(),fragment,fragment.getClass().getSimpleName());
if (shouldGoBack)
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(fragment.getClass().getSimpleName());
where getRootViewContainer() returns the id of the FrameLayout I'm using as my activity main container.
Now, is it really the default behavior of add()?
If so, is there a proper way to avoid this or one just has to use replace()?
What you can do here is just hide previous fragment at the time of transaction of current fragment.
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
Fragment newFragment= new MyFragment ();
ft.hide(CurrentFragment.this);
ft.show(newFragment);
ft.commit();
It worked for me just try it.
FragmentTransaction.hide(fragmentBehind); //works for me!
example :
//I have it globally available
FragmentTransaction trans = MainActivity.getManager().beginTransaction();
//not globally
FragmentTransaction trans = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
MapFragment newFragment = new newFragment();
trans.add(R.id.fragmentContainer, newFragment, tag);
trans.hide(this);
trans.addToBackStack(tag);
trans.commit();
Yes, this is a default behaviour of add().
If you really don't want to user replace(), you can try to disable views which are inside "old" fragment.
I've been working with fragments for a while now, but I regularly encounter a problem that just annoys me. Fragments remain drawn over each other some times. Now, I managed to isolate one use case for this, and it goes like this:
Add Fragment A (also use addToBackStack with a name "backstack_state")
Replace Fragment A with Fragment B (use addToBackStack)
Replace Fragment B with Fragment C WITHOUT using addToBackStack
at a given point use popBackStack("backstack_state", 0) and here comes the issue:
The backstack is popped until Fragment A but Fragment C is overlaid with Fragment A, both are visible at the same time. Is this normal behavior or is it me who makes a mistake?
Here's a remark also: all the fragments have transparent background.
Thanks!
This happens because the top fragment (in this case Fragment C) is not removed. You have to remove it first inside a fragment transaction. Try this:
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
Fragment topFragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
if (topFragment != null) {
fragmentTransaction.remove(topFragment);
}
fragmentTransaction.commit();
fragmentManager.popBackStack("backstack_state", 0);
I have class Demo and I am extends the demo by FragmentActivity class. Also I have another class Fragment1 extends Fragment. And the onclick of button i am navigate from activity Demo to the Fragment Fragment1. Now I want to come back on Demo from the Fragment1. So how can I back to Demo activity?
Thanks.
Your question is lacking a lot of detail, so I'm taking a stab in the dark here, but...
I presume in your onClick code, you use the Fragment Manager to create a new Fragment Transaction, then add the fragment to that transaction and commit it?
Your problem with the activity being closed when you hit the back button is likely because your fragment was not added to something called the "back stack". You can find to documentation here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/FragmentTransaction.html#addToBackStack%28java.lang.String%29, but crucially the main thing you need to do is modify your code to include the line below:
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager()
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container, new Fragment1());
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack("Transaction ID"); // <-- This is key!
fragmentTransaction.commit();
Once that's done, Android will remember the adding of the fragment as a navigation act, and should reverse the transaction when the back button is hit.
If this wasn't what you're looking for, or if it doesn't work, please provide some more detail and some code samples and I can take another look.
Try adding the fragment you want to go back to manually to the backstack.
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
YourFragmentName myFragment = new YourFragmentName();
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, myFragment);
//if you with to add it to backStack, do this, otherwise skip the line below
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
Hello I am working with sliding menu with fragment.
Indivisual fragment works properly. But suppose user navigates From fragment A->B , now 'B' works perfect and now if user goes from B->A than fragment 'A' is called from onAttach() .
I want such a condition if any fragment is opened , than reopening it should not load whole fragment , it should be resumed just like we handle activity with Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT.
Here is my code...
FragmentManager fm = MainActivity.this.getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
Layout1 fragment = new Layout1();
ft.add(R.id.activity_main_content_fragment, fragment,Layout1.class.getName());
ft.addToBackStack(Layout1.class.getName());
ft.commit();
Answer updated:
Reading the documentation, there is a way to pop the back stack based on either the transaction name or the id provided by commit. Using the name may be easier since it shouldn't require keeping track of a number that may change and reinforces the "unique back stack entry" logic.
Since you want only one back stack entry per Fragment, make the back state name the Fragment's class name (via getClass().getName()). Then when replacing a Fragment, use the popBackStackImmediate() method. If it returns true, it means there is an instance of the Fragment in the back stack. If not, actually execute the Fragment replacement logic.
private void replaceFragment (Fragment fragment){
String backStateName = fragment.getClass().getName();
FragmentManager manager = getSupportFragmentManager();
boolean fragmentPopped = manager.popBackStackImmediate (backStateName, 0);
if (!fragmentPopped){ //fragment not in back stack, create it.
FragmentTransaction ft = manager.beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment);
ft.addToBackStack(backStateName);
ft.commit();
}
}
If you return to a fragment from the back stack it does not re-create the fragment but re-uses the same instance and starts with onCreateView() in the fragment lifecycle, see Fragment lifecycle.
So if you want to store state you should use instance variables and not rely on onSaveInstanceState()

I'm currently using a ViewGroup (SwipeyTab implementation) to switch between Fragments. However, some Fragment "pages" get replaced by other Fragments on the same Tab, so I initially tried:
FragmentTransaction ft = fragment.getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.remove(currentFragment);
ft.add(newFragment,"");
ft.commit();
That code would remove the current fragment but not add newFragment (from Logcat, it would get instantiated but not appear).
I ended up adding it in the FragmentPagerAdapter.getItem(int position) call based on current state (based on this: Replace Fragment inside a ViewPager). However, I'd like to be able to add each newly replaced fragment to be part of the back stack.
I tried adding to backstack before removing the fragment:
currentFragment.getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().addToBackStack(null).commit();
FragmentTransaction ft = fragment.getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.remove(currentFragment);
ft.commit();
and that didn't work - it added the last fragment to the backstack, so when I pressed back, it would just reload the current fragment.
Is there anyway I can add a fragment to the backstack that has been replaced in the "non traditional" way?
