Only first fragment showing - android

I am trying to create an activity with 2 Fragment
First fragment show a list of galleries using a LisFragment
Second fragment show the preview images of the gallery selected in the first fragment
When I declare the fragment in the view it works. But now I want to manage fragment dynamically :
GalleriesFragment gfs = new GalleriesFragment();
GalleryFragment gf = new GalleryFragment();
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.add(R.id.layout_m,gfs);
ft.add(R.id.layout_m,gf);
ft.commit();
My Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:id="#+id/layout_m">
</LinearLayout>
When doing this only the first fragment added is shown, I tried to invert their order when adding fragment...
When I was working on the layout I could set my fragment width with:
android:layout_width="400dp"
Now I have 2 questions :
How can I make my 2 fragments to display?
How can I set the width (programmatically?) of the 1st fragment and the second to fill the remaining width?
Thanks for your help!
PS:
GalleriesFragment doesn't have a layout and is not overriding onCreateView, but has an ArrayAdapter returning view like this for each rows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/idimage"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="10sp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10sp"
android:layout_marginTop="10sp"
android:contentDescription="preview"
>
</ImageView>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout01"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/texttitre"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5sp"
android:layout_marginRight="7sp"
android:layout_marginTop="10sp"
android:background="#layout/roundcorner"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Title here" >
</TextView>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/itemdescription"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10sp"
android:layout_marginRight="10sp"
android:text="description" >
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
GalleryFragment :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Gallery
android:id="#+id/gallery"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Update 2 :
I added an onCreateView in my GalleriesFragment class :
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
FrameLayout.LayoutParams lparams = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(400, LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
container.setLayoutParams(lparams);
return super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
}
This fixes the first fragment's width, but the second one is still not showing...

How can I make my 2 fragments to display ?
Your current approach will make the first fragment supplied to the add method to take all the space of your container layout. One solution is to use a layout that reserves space for each of the two fragments that get added, something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/layout_m"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frame1"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frame2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
Then in code:
ft.add(R.id.frame1, gfs);
ft.add(R.id.frame2, gf);
ft.commit();
How can I set the width (programmatically ?)of the 1st fragment and
the second to fill the remaining width?
Fragments are not just ordinary views but one way to do that is to use your single LinearLayout layout file and set the LayoutParams of the fragment's view in onActivityCreated:
getView().setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(100, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
Of course this will make your fragments to be tied to the parent container, also I don't know how well this will work in the overall fragment system.

inflating layout

I'd like to achieve such a layout, where user got 2 control panels. He is able to switch from first to second by pressing button and vice versa.
Already have tried to use LayoutInflater, however, without success :/
The main reason, why doing it with 2 different layouts is, that buttons will be almost on the same position, so i'd like to prevent all that mess in one layout and create 2 separate control panel layouts.
Here are my layouts:
main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/layout_root"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/control_panel_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="5">
<!-- Here comes including layouts-->
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
control_panel_1.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/control_panel1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_action1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_action_selector"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_action2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_action_selector2"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_action1"
android:layout_marginRight="50dp"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_action3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/ic_action_selector3"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/btn_action1"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
control_panel_2.xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_action3"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_marginRight="60dp"/>
</RelativeLayout>
MainActivity.java
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.layout_root);
RelativeLayout controlPanelLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.control_panel_layout);
//Inflate first control panel on activity start
LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)
this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View controlPanel1 = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.control_panel_1.xml);
controlPanelLayout.addView(controlPanel1)
}
EDIT:
As shown in the image, let's say activity starts with Screen1 and once user press Btn1, Screen2 appears...as you can see, only control panel has been switched.
however, it won't inflate that layout at start of application...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, hints...
Inflate your control panel in onCreateView() and when handling button click (to change panel). The code should be somewhat like this:
private void inflateYourPanel(int panelLayoutID, ViewGroup placeholder) {
placeholder.removeAllViews();
View view = LayoutInflater.from(mActivity).inflate(panelLayoutID, placeholder, false);
//find your views and set values and listeners
placeholder.addView(view);
}
Edit: placeholder may be any layout (control_panel_layout) inflated when starting activity etc
Still may be you'd better look at Fragments - it may fit your purpose better and provide more scalability

Android: Fragment overlay another fragment with semi transparent

Let's say I have 2 fragments, one contain a list view and another contain a loading text. I want when I click on one list item, the loading text fragment appears on top of the list view. I have adjusted the opacity of the loading text background to: android:background="#33FFFFFF" . But still it just shows the loading text on a solid grey background.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ListView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:background="#e8e9ee"
android:divider="#ccc"
android:dividerHeight="1dp"/>
Fragment that contains a textview:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="#string/loadingText"
android:id="#+id/loadingText"
android:textColor="#e8e9ee"
android:background="#33FFFFFF"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
My java code is basically something like this: onItemClick:
FragmentTransaction transaction=manager.beginTransaction();
transaction.show(loadingFragment);
transaction.commit();
I did it and it works perfectly but instead of using .show I used .add:
Activity layout:
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/layout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="5dp">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/list_view_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true">
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/loading_text_fragment_container"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="300dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true">
</FrameLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
In the Activity:
First add your List View:
ListViewFragment listViewFragment = new ListViewFragment();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().add(R.id.list_view_container, listViewFragment).commit();
Then the loading text:
// Create a new Fragment to be placed in the activity layout
YourFragment yourFragment = new YourFragment();
// Add the fragment to the 'loading_text_fragment_container' FrameLayout
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().add(R.id.loading_text_fragment_container, yourFragment).commit();
In YourFragment.java
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_fragment_layout, container, false);
}
And the your_fragment_layout.xml has a common TextView without any special attribute.
Hope it to be useful,
regards!
I think you are actually replacing the original fragment rather than overlaying it. You should create two framelayouts that cover the full screen and then assign the loading fragment to the overlaying frame layout
in you activity
<FrameLayout id="#+id/ListFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout id="#+id/LoadingFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
</FrameLayout>
and then to load them
FragmentTransaction transaction=manager.beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.ListFragment, listFragment);
transaction.commit();
FragmentTransaction transaction=manager.beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.LoadingFragment, loadingFragment);
transaction.commit();

android fragment listview shows items partially

I have an activity with the associated activity.xml code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/pattern_background"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/scrollView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="5dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:clickable="false" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
...
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/llComments"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="TextView" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
<include
android:id="#+id/layoutComments"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
layout="#layout/widget_comentarios_fragment" >
</include>
In the LinearLayout with id llComments I introduce a fragment called CommentsFragment dynamically from the activity with the following code:
private Fragment commentsFragment;
private FragmentTransaction ft;
...
llComentarios = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.llComments);
...
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putString(Constants.IDMODEL, getId());
commentsFragment = CommentsFragment.newInstance(args);
ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.add(R.id.llComments, commentsFragment).commit();
The Fragment associated xml file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/comments"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:divider="#color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/indicator_internal_padding"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/indicator_internal_padding" />
</LinearLayout>
The problem I cannot solve is to show in the activity more than one item (in fact I am showing one and a third items) in the list if I do not fix a height for the listview.It should adapt to as many items I add to the list in the fragment through the adapter. I have tried different combinations of heights in the layouts and views, but still does not work. Maybe I am annulating one with other.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
After some days I find out the exact problem. I was including a ListView into a ScrollView, and that's clearly not recomended by Android developers.
You can look for further info here: Why ListView cannot be used in a ScrollView?
Anyway, if you want to do it, you can do that with a hack. Take a look at these proposals:
How can I put a ListView into a ScrollView without it collapsing?
For me that worked. Problem solved.

Fragment's and sub-Fragment's LinearLayouts aren't stretching to the entire parent size

I'm having an issue where my Fragment view inside a LinearLayout isn't streching to the parent's height and width. But it is a little bit more complicated since I have two Fragments inside that Fragment.
Here's the Activity's view:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/main_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center|fill"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="8dp" >
</LinearLayout>
Here's the parent fragment XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout1"
android:background="#FF00FF"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mtg_player1_fragment_wrapper"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#0000FF"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/mtg_player2_fragment_wrapper"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#FF0000"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And the child (player) fragment XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mtg_player_life_wrapper"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/mtg_player_life_count"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#00FF00"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:text="0"
android:textSize="140sp" />
</LinearLayout>
I'm adding the parent fragment like this (via clicking on a list item):
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.main_content, fragment, newFragmentClass.getSimpleName()).setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN).commit();
And the children fragment like this (on the parent's onViewCreated()):
mPlayer1Frag = (PlayerFragment) getSherlockActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.player1_fragment_wrapper);
if (mPlayer1Frag == null) {
mPlayer1Frag = new PlayerFragment();
}
if (!mPlayer1Frag.isVisible()) {
((RoboSherlockFragmentActivity)getSherlockActivity()).getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.player1_fragment_wrapper, mPlayer1Frag).commit();
}
mPlayer2Frag = (PlayerFragment) getSherlockActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.player2_fragment_wrapper);
if (mPlayer2Frag == null) {
mPlayer2Frag = new PlayerFragment();
}
if (!mPlayer2Frag.isVisible()) {
((RoboSherlockFragmentActivity)getSherlockActivity()).getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.player2_fragment_wrapper, mPlayer2Frag).commit();
}
What I get is the following:
What basically happened is:
The parent Fragment view didn't stretch vertically to fill the entire activity's view (no pink appeared);
The TextView (green) didn't stretch to cover the children fragment layout (red/blue);
What I want to happen is for the parent UI to stretch in the entire activity, for the children to cover the entire parent and for the TextViews to cover the entire child. I could change it to use a single fragment (and may well do that), but I'd prefer if I could keep it this way, since it feels more organized :)
So, the question is, what am I doing wrong? Can't this be done using two fragments inside another?
In the onCreateView() method of a Fragment always inflate the layout file using the container parameter of that method like this:
inflater.inflate(R.layout.parent_view, container, false);
This way the inflated view will be given proper LayoutParams and it will behave as designed.

Android replace fragment still displays some of the replaced fragment

I have a tab that contains a linear layout with a searchview and a listview. When the user clicks one of the search results, I want to replace that layout with another layout containing the details of the selection.
What happens when I replace the search fragment only the listview portion of the layout gets replaced; the searchview is still visible and active on the screen.
Here is my search layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/search_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<SearchView
android:id="#+id/public_calendar_search"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:iconifiedByDefault="false"
</SearchView>
<ListView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1.0"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice" />
<TextView
android:id="#android:id/empty"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center"/>
</LinearLayout>
Here is the detail layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/detail_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Space
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="20dip"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Space
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".1" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight=".8"
android:text="#string/label_Name" />
<Space
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight=".1" />
</LinearLayout>
.........
</LinearLayout>
And my code to replace the search fragment:
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack.
DetailFragment fragment = DetailFragment.newInstance(cal);
transaction.replace(R.id.search_layout, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
Detail fragment creation:
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.detail_layout, container, false);
return v;
}
static DetailFragment newInstance(String cal) {
DetailFragment d = new DetailFragment();
return d;
}
What am I doing wrong? How can I get the entire search layout to be replaced.
Thanks!
I figured out my problem. Marco wasn't exactly right but he pointed me in the right direction.
The problem was the the container ID I was passing to the replace method was the ID of the fragment I was replacing, not the ID of the fragment container. This seems to explain why some of the original fragment controls were remaining after the replace - that entire fragment wasn't being replaced.
I changed it to get the fragment container view ID, and that worked! Here's the code:
transaction.replace(((ViewGroup)(getView().getParent())).getId(), fragment);
I found the answer for getting the container view ID of a fragment here, Get fragment's container view id.
I was using the correct ID, then also it wasnt going away. Turns out that you need to set the Background color to your needed color in new Fragment layout, like this.
<RelativeLayout 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:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#color/white_color">
To solve the problem, set the android:background property to “?android:windowBackground” in the fragment layout files.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="?android:windowBackground"
tools:context=".MainFragment">
...
</LinearLayout>
In Fragment_2
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="?android:windowBackground"
tools:context=".SomeFragment">
...
</LinearLayout>
I was having the same problem, and the solution didn't work for me. Maybe this will help someone...
I had added a fragment inside the activity layout xml file. This caused a lot of issues.
Instead, add a frame layout in your xml file, and then programatically add and replace fragments. This causes the whole fragment to be replaced.
I had the same problem once, and this is my solution.
Try to do this, use FrameLayout instead of fragment in your layout file. Just like this:
<fragment android:id="#+id/your_fragment" />
Then, add your default fragment in activity method onCreate().
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.your_fragment, YourFragment)
.commit();
Now, the old fragment can be replaced correctly, it looks great.
This worked for me, and I hope it helps you too.
