fitSystemWindows programmatically for status bar transparency - android

My app has one activity that hosts different fragments for each section. I have recently made the status bar translucent by setting fitSystemWindows to true, which has set it to the background colour of the app. This is fine for fragments that have a toolbar, where the colours match, like so:
However one of my fragments has a photo and a translucent toolbar, so I'd like to have the photo occupy the space of the status bar too, rather than the background colour.
I believe the solution is to set fitSystemWindows to false for that fragment only, and manually add padding to the translucent toolbar. Doing this programmatically seems to have no effect, what could I be doing wrong?
Here is my main activity layout:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/main_parent_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<!-- Container for various fragment layouts, including nav drawer and toolbar -->
</RelativeLayout>
And from within my fragment's onCreateView():
RelativeLayout daddyLayout = (RelativeLayout)getActivity().findViewById(R.id.main_parent_view);
daddyLayout.setFitsSystemWindows(false);
daddyLayout.invalidate();
This seems to have no effect, like so:
If I set fitSystemWindows to false in the main_parent_view, the status bar padding is gone and it works but obviously affects every fragment.

Well, you are in dilemma situation there, because from one hand you need to apply insets (because Toolbar should be correctly padded), and on the other hand you should not apply insets (because you want ImageView to be drawn under status bar).
Turns out there's a nice API provided by the framework for that case:
ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(toolbar, (v, insets) -> {
((ViewGroup.MarginLayoutParams) v.getLayoutParams()).topMargin =
insets.getSystemWindowInsetTop();
return insets.consumeSystemWindowInsets();
});
Assuming your root layout has android:fitsSystemWindows="true", now appropriate insets would be applied to your Toolbar only, and not the ImageView.
But, there's a problem.
The problem is that your root layout is RelativeLayout, which doesn't dispatch its children any information about insets. Neither do its sibling layouts (LinearLayout, FrameLayout).
If you had as a root layout one of "materialish" layouts (CoordinatorLayout, DrawerLayout), then children would be dispatched those window insets.
The other option is to subclass RelativeLayout and dispatch WindowInsets to
children manually.
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT_WATCH)
#Override
public WindowInsets onApplyWindowInsets(WindowInsets insets) {
int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int index = 0; index < childCount; index++)
getChildAt(index).dispatchApplyWindowInsets(insets); // let children know about WindowInsets
return insets;
}
You can see this answer for a detailed explanation with precisely same requirement you have.

I have resolve this question in 4.4
if(test){
Log.d(TAG, "fit true ");
relativeLayout.setFitsSystemWindows(true);
relativeLayout.requestFitSystemWindows();
getWindow().clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS);
}else {
Log.d(TAG, "fit false");
relativeLayout.setFitsSystemWindows(false);
relativeLayout.requestFitSystemWindows();
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS);
}

You can use a CoordinatorLayout as your activity root view and then setFitsSystemWindows(boolean) will work.
This is because, as explained in this blog post , DrawerLayout and CoordinatorLayout both have different rules on how fitsSystemWindows applies to them - they both use it to inset their child Views, but also call dispatchApplyWindowInsets() on each child, allowing them access to the fitsSystemWindows="true" property.
This is a difference from the default behavior with layouts such as FrameLayout where when you use fitsSystemWindows="true" is consumes all insets, blindly applying padding without informing any child views (that's the 'depth first' part of the blog post).

Saw the same issue. Solved it in my app by removing fitSystemWindows from the activity declaration and adding paddingTop to the fragment. Obviously not an ideal solution but seems to be working.

simply put
View decorView = getActivity().getWindow().getDecorView();
decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(
View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
| View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN);
and for status bar color use:
getActivity().getWindow().setBackgroundDrawableResource(R.color.green);

Custom view on status bar

Facebook Messenger shows this view for a few seconds when resuming the app (it also hides the status bar icons). Does anyone know how to do this?
You will need to use the WindowInsets (SDK >= 20) to get the StatusBar's height. Create a FrameLayout, apply the LayoutParams(MATCH_PARENT, statusBarHeight). Set the layout background color to colorPrimaryDark.
Hide de Status Bar by using the method setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN).
To add the status text, create a LinearLayout, apply the LayoutParams(WRAP_CONTENT, MATCH_PARENT, Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL), Orientation = HORIZONTAL and add a Canvas and TextView.
Finally, add the LinearLayout as the child of the FrameLayout and add the FrameLayout as the first child of the main layout.

CoordinatorLayout with multiple snapping points

Here I've got quite a complex animation that may be resolved (I believe) in a simple way using the CoordinatorLayout. It has 3 states:
Initial (left screen) - Header view is shown fully (orange
background): Toolbar, grey roundrect (it's actually a photo there)
plus some other views below (TextViews, RatingBar etc)
Scrolling the content up (middle
screen) - roundrect is zooming up with a changing green foreground alpha level over it, so it becomes green while scrolling (well, it is not obvious with these screens. Green background is actually a zoomed roundrect with a green foreground over it, and that is the cause the header background becomes green and not orange)
Scrolling once more (right screen) - the rest of the header should be scrolled up
Scrolling down the content should lead to the appearing of the views in a reverse way accordingly.
I had some experience working with the CoordinatorLayout, but I'm really not sure I understand how to handle 2 anchor points. I understand how the scroll flags work and that for zooming (p. 2) and for changing the foreground alpha I need a custom Behavior implementation, but for now I cannot understand how shall I handle all of this in a complex.
All I've found so far is Saúl Molinero's tutorial and also this tutorial with examples.
So please sorry for the poor description here, I'll update my question of course and will add the source code when I have some success with this issue, but for now I'd be glad to get some hints maybe or tutorials I've missed. Hope someone had something similar in the projects.
Here's my test repo with the code and here is a link to my layout.xml file.
You can get two snapping points with just setting the scroll flags as follows:
<android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
...stuff...
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways|snap">
So, fully expanded is one stopping point and with just the toolbar visible is the second stopping point. When the view is scrolled further, the toolbar disappears. So this is how you want things to work when scrolling up.
Now when the app bar is fully collapsed, the app bar will start showing immediately when scrolling down. That is not a surprise, since that is what enterAlways does. If the top of the content has been scrolled out of view, then you won't see it again until after the app bar is fully expanded. So, if this is the behavior you want, we'll just stop there.
However, I think that what you want is the exiting behavior outlined above but with a different entry behavior. You will get the late entry behavior if you set the scroll flags as follows:
<android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
...stuff...
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|snap">
This just deleted the enterAlways flag. With these scroll flags, the app bar will not reappear (once collapsed) until the top of the content is visible and "pulls" the app bar into view.
So, one solution (of what is probably many) is to write a new behavior that will be attached to the AppBarLayout some code that will change the scroll flags once the app bar is fully collapsed and change them back as it opens again. That way you can change the behavior to be what you want and still use the Android machinery to figure out what the specific operations are at the view level. This can be done in a custom view or in the activity - wherever you have access to the scroll state of the app bar and the scrolling flags. It can also be done in a behavior but that is probably not the best place for it.
Oh, and as you have discovered, snapping is janky on API 26.
Here is an implementation of the concept. For simplicity, the implementation is in an activity:
ScrollingActivity.java
public class ScrollingActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_scrolling);
final AppBarLayout appBar = (AppBarLayout) findViewById(R.id.app_bar);
appBar.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
CollapsingToolbarLayout toolbarLayout =
(CollapsingToolbarLayout) findViewById(R.id.toolbar_layout);
setupAppBar(appBar, toolbarLayout);
}
});
}
private void setupAppBar(AppBarLayout appBar, final CollapsingToolbarLayout toolbarLayout) {
// Scroll range is positive but offsets are negative. Make signs agree for camparisons.
final int mScrollRange = -appBar.getTotalScrollRange();
appBar.addOnOffsetChangedListener(new AppBarLayout.OnOffsetChangedListener() {
private boolean mAppBarCollapsed = false;
#Override
public void onOffsetChanged(AppBarLayout appBarLayout, int verticalOffset) {
if (verticalOffset == mScrollRange) { // App bar just collapsed
mAppBarCollapsed = true;
AppBarLayout.LayoutParams lp =
(AppBarLayout.LayoutParams) toolbarLayout.getLayoutParams();
int flags = lp.getScrollFlags()
& ~AppBarLayout.LayoutParams.SCROLL_FLAG_ENTER_ALWAYS;
lp.setScrollFlags(flags);
toolbarLayout.setLayoutParams(lp);
} else if (mAppBarCollapsed) { // App bar is opening back up
mAppBarCollapsed = false;
AppBarLayout.LayoutParams lp =
(AppBarLayout.LayoutParams) toolbarLayout.getLayoutParams();
int flags = lp.getScrollFlags()
| AppBarLayout.LayoutParams.SCROLL_FLAG_ENTER_ALWAYS;
lp.setScrollFlags(flags);
toolbarLayout.setLayoutParams(lp);
}
}
});
}
}

Block scroll along with Expand/Collapse Collapsible Toolbar

I was using Collapsible Toolbar in my app. On activity launch Collapsible Toolbar is expanded state with scrolling enabled and its working well normally. But now I have a requirement to show a full screen error layout in case my API fails. In that case I have to collapsed toolbar with scrolling effect blocked.
Error Layout shows a Retry Button. On Retry I make API call again and if API gives success I have to again expand Toolbar and enable scrolling effect.
I was able to collapse toolbar with setExpanded(flag, animate) but in that case I am not able to block scrolling effect of Collapsible Toolbar while error layout is shown.
I need to provide a way to block as well as unblock scroll effect + Expand/Collapse Toolbar. Any help would be really appreciated.. !!!
Make your error layout such that it will overlap Collapsible Toolbar. Also set android:clickable="true" to your error layout.
When you set visibility to your error layout, set Toolbar scrolling accordingly.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#f3f3f3"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<!-- Add your other layout including Collapsible Toolbar here.-->
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/errorLayout"
android:clickable="true"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
I created a library AppBarrr to lock the screen in expanded mode, based on my previous answer.
As I said, the height of the Toolbar is the key: the CollapsingToolbarLayout will collapse until the Toolbar's height and will expand until the AppBarLayout's height.
With this library, you must set two layouts as the Toolbar and your Expanded Layout (used to lock the screen and the scroll), it will create a CollapsingToolbarLayout and inflate these layouts inside.
You can declare the animations duration, the color of the inner CollapsingToolbarLayout, the collapsed/expanded title's style, even the height of the locked layout... You could also hide the Expanded Layout if you click outside it. It can support NestedScrollView and ScrollView inside the Expanded Layout. The documentation and a sample app are available on Github.
For those who don't want to use the library, my previous answer shows the way to do it. Here's the output of the previous answer:
Basically, this is the same concept, but no need to write a full class, with the lib you just need to have a simple widget in xml and that's it!
Feel free to use, fork or test. Hope it will be useful ;)
If you use AlertDialog to communicate the error and a ProgressDialog (spinner) to show you are doing stuff, you can block user input while your app is doing it's thing.
A simple solution that you can apply is just use the property
android:visibility="gone"
for the content that you don't want to show and just make your error layout visible by using property android:visibility="visible"
place the error layout at the bottom of your parent layout
once the contents are not visible on screen and error layout is just visible you will achieve the desired result that you want. Hope this helps you.
You can implement the interface and call its methods when to enable or disable the collapsing effect.
public interface AppbarRequestListener {
void unlockAppBarOpen();
void lockAppBarClosed();
}
#Override
public void unlockAppBarOpen() {
appBarLayout.setExpanded(true, false);
appBarLayout.setActivated(true);
setAppBarDragging(false);
}
#Override
public void lockAppBarClosed() {
appBarLayout.setExpanded(false, false);
appBarLayout.setActivated(false);
setAppBarDragging(false);
}
private void setAppBarDragging(final boolean isEnabled) {
CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams params =
(CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams) appBarLayout.getLayoutParams();
AppBarLayout.Behavior behavior = new AppBarLayout.Behavior();
behavior.setDragCallback(new AppBarLayout.Behavior.DragCallback() {
#Override
public boolean canDrag(AppBarLayout appBarLayout) {
return isEnabled;
}
});
params.setBehavior(behavior);
}

Set NavigationDrawer's ListView margin programmatically

I am currently struggling to design my application the way i want to.
In my app i am using a NavigationDrawer and different fragments. By clicking on an item in the NavigationDrawer i swap out the fragment that is currently active.
There is one main fragment which shows a map and doesn't show a toolbar. When I switch to another fragment I want to show my toolbar and let the user interact with it.
Now when I show the toolbar I have to set the top margin of the NavigationDrawer to the size of the toolbar so it doesn't get overlapped.
When I am showing the toolbar I set the margin of the NavigationDrawer's listview like this:
ViewGroup.MarginLayoutParams params = (ViewGroup.MarginLayoutParams) mDrawerListView.getLayoutParams();
params.setMargins(0, drawerMarginTop, 0, 0);
mDrawerListView.setLayoutParams(params);
mDrawerListView.requestLayout();
The outcome is like the complete opposite of what i expect. It seems like the margin is applied to the bottom of the view.
Screenshot:
Another thing that annoys me is that the toggle-arrow of the toolbar is not centered correctly. It's a little bit higher than it should be, so it overlaps the system bar in the top and doesn't fill the whole size of the toolbar. I tried to make this clear in the following picture:
If you need any xml or code just let me know and I will edit my question.
Thank you in advance!
EDIT 1+2:
My toolbar style:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/toolbar_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/my_color"
app:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
EDIT 3:
The Problem with the toggle-arrow not being centered is fixed now. Thanks to Alchete.
Unfortunately the NavigationDrawer is still buggy. I found out that if I open and close the NavigationDrawer many times it somehow changes its layout at one time and the margin is set correctly... Is there any way to force this top happen immediately?
After many times of opening and closing the drawer it looks like this: (Exactly what I want it to look like)
There must be a way to force this immediately, right?
Your alignment issue is most likely due to your toolbar height. You should be setting the toolbar height as follows:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize">
Here's the same issue for reference: android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar icon alignment issue
I would also be using Google's IOSched app for reference on how to set these items up properly. You can find all the code on Github.
Here are their layout files. Scroll down to see their toolbar/navdrawer layouts: https://github.com/google/iosched/tree/dfaf8b83ad1b3e7c8d1af0b08d59caf4223e0b95/android/src/main/res/layout
And, also note that Google's reference design is to OVERLAP the toolbar with the navdrawer -- which is not how you have it. And, the right margin should be equivalent to the toolbar height.
See here: http://www.google.com/design/spec/patterns/navigation-drawer.html
I'm not 100% about this but it looks like you're setting the ViewGroup layout params to be of type MarginLayoutParams. Instead, set the margin on a 'normal' root ViewGroup type e.g. RelativeLayout and pass that to the View:
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
params.setMargins(0, drawerMarginTop, 0, 0);
mDrawerListView.setLayoutParams(params);
mDrawerListView.requestLayout();
You may want to change MATCH_PARENT to WRAP_CONTENT depending on your xml.

Android DecorView setFitsSystemWindows

I'm using AndroidResideMenu (https://github.com/SpecialCyCi/AndroidResideMenu) and I've found a problem related with the view size.
The library works by inflating a FrameLayout, removing the current view from the DecorView and adding it to the new FrameLayout (wich also contains scrollviews for adding menu items, and a shadow view).
The old view mantains its size and position, but the new FrameLayout seems to be in fullscreen mode and is hidden under the status bar when the menu is open, as I describe here (https://github.com/SpecialCyCi/AndroidResideMenu/issues/33).
In api14+ devices the problem can be solved by adding a call to setFitsSystemWindow(true) in the ResideMenu, but I don't know what to do in older devices.
Ideas?
Thanks!
Well, I've found the solution.
Just implement the method fitSystemWindows(Rect insets), making what is said in the documentation of this method (which I misunderstood until now):
The default implementation of this method simply applies the content insets to the view's padding, consuming that content (modifying the insets to be 0), and returning true. This behavior is off by default, but can be enabled through setFitsSystemWindows(boolean).
So, in the ResideMenu class:
#Override
protected boolean fitSystemWindows(Rect insets) {
setPadding(paddingLeft + insets.left, paddingTop + insets.top, ...);
insets.left = insets.top = insets.right = insets.bottom = 0;
return true;
}
Hope this helps!
