I haven't been able to find a way how to dynamically add fragment into existing dynamically added fragment. Do you know, if it is possible?
I am generating fragments this way:
FragmentManager fragMgr = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction xact = fragMgr.beginTransaction();
if(null == fragMgr.findFragmentByTag(FRAG1_TAG)) {
xact.add(10101010, new DateTime(), FRAG1_TAG);
}
if(null == fragMgr.findFragmentByTag(FRAG4_TAG)) {
xact.add(7777, new loginForm(), FRAG4_TAG);
}
xact.commit();
How to add into FRAG4_TAG fragment another one?
Edit2:
I hard coded it's id to be able to work with it in future (where ll is my linearLayout in XML):
FrameLayout frml4 = (FrameLayout)inflater.inflate(R.layout.frame,null);
frml4.setId(7777);
frml4.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);
ll.addView(frml4);
I assume the problem that you are running into is that there is not an inflated view to add the fragment to because the original fragment, FRAG4_TAG, has not been inflated before you are trying to add it.
You can pass enough information to FRAG4_TAG in the Arguments to let it know that it should create and add a fragment (or what all fragments you need it to have) to itself during it's onCreateView, after the view has been inflated...
The layout for the activity...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="MyActivity"/>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/main_frag_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
The Activity...
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
Fragment fragOne = new MyFragment();
Bundle arguments = new Bundle();
arguments.putBoolean("shouldYouCreateAChildFragment", true);
fragOne.setArguments(arguments);
ft.add(R.id.main_frag_container, fragOne);
ft.commit();
}
}
The layout for the fragment...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="20dp">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Some fragment"/>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/frag_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
The fragment...
public class MyFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(final LayoutInflater inflater, final ViewGroup container, final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
ViewGroup layout = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.frag_layout, container, false);
boolean shouldCreateChild = getArguments().getBoolean("shouldYouCreateAChildFragment");
if (shouldCreateChild) {
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
fm.beginTransaction();
Fragment fragTwo = new MyFragment();
Bundle arguments = new Bundle();
arguments.putBoolean("shouldYouCreateAChildFragment", false);
fragTwo.setArguments(arguments);
ft.add(R.id.frag_container, fragTwo);
ft.commit();
}
return layout;
}
}
This example covers the case where you need to dynamically add fragments to a fragment that HAS NOT already been inflated and added to the hierarchy. Adding a fragment to a fragment that HAS already been inflated and added to the hierarchy is as simple as just specifying the target fragments container that you want to add to by ID like you would normally.
As the documentation states "A fragment must always be embedded in an activity".
So when you add a "sub-fragment" it will always belong to the activity even if you add it within your fragment class. For example if you later decide to remove the containing fragment the sub fragments won't be automatically removed.
When I had to do the same I had to store in a vector the sub fragments and manually remove them in the onDestroy methods of my container fragment.
I think that fragments are not thought to be used like this
You cannot insert Fragments into other Fragments. (At least, not yet)
You can however replace Fragments with other Fragments with FragmentTransaction.replace(containerViewId, Fragment).
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity);
FragmentManager manager = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction transaction = manager.beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.linear1, new activity()).commit();
}

I am trying to add multiple fragments to a FrameLayout. I need to add them one below another. But they are overlapping.
main_layout.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</FrameLayout>
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);
// Create instance of fragments
FragmentPrimaryList firstFrag = new FragmentPrimaryList();
FragmentSecondaryList secFrag = new FragmentSecondaryList();
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
// add fragment to the fragment container layout
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container,firstFrag);
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container,secFrag);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
}
They looks like this. How can I solve this?
Use the replace method instead of the add method.
The replace method hides the current fragment before adding new one, the add method simply adds the new fragment without disposing off the older fragment.
In order to retain the back stack, use the fragment transaction with backstack management.
I need to display both fragments at same time, one below another
You can try the following layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Now add fragmments using:
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container1,firstFrag);
make sure you Fragment's layout_height = "wrap_content"
Add background to your fragments and make "android:clickable="true" to parent layout.
Do this way:
First fragment
FragmentPrimaryList firstFrag = new FragmentPrimaryList();
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
// add fragment to the fragment container layout
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container,firstFrag);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
second fragment
FragmentSecondaryList secFrag = new FragmentSecondaryList();
fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container,secFrag);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
I am trying to move from one fragment to another.. It shows following error during fragment transaction-

When you use fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.container,fragment) it will remove any fragments that are already in the container and add your new one to the same container.
Now i can suggest you 2 things.First, if you want to use fragmentTransaction.replace(android.R.id.content, fragment); which you are doing right now,then don't set content for your Activity using setContentView.This should work fine then.To know what exactly android.R.id.content is you can refer this stackoverflow question and answer
Or Secondly, In the layout of your Activity have a FrameLayout whose id is content. And then use
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.content, fragment);
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);//add the transaction to the back stack so the user can navigate back
// Commit the transaction
fragmentTransaction.commit();
Hope this helps.
More Info:
From your comments it seems that you are having some problem in getting the idea of using FrameLayout in your Activity's layout(Not of any of the Fragment's layout).From the Documents
FrameLayout is designed to block out an area on the screen to display a single item. Generally, FrameLayout should be used to hold a single child view, because it can be difficult to organize child views in a way that's scalable to different screen sizes without the children overlapping each other.
So the main purpose of FrameLayout is to block the area required to fit the largest child view. If you use a FrameLayout as Fragment Container you can ensure that you always have the space available to accommodate the largest Fragment's layout.
So you can have your FrameLayout something like this in your Activity's layout xml file
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent">
<!--you can put your existing views of your current xml here, so yes your entire xml is now inside this FrameLayout -->
</FrameLayout>
I don't use getSupportFragmentManager().
I use getChildFragmentManager() and it worked for me.
You can try it.
If you are trying to put Fragment into Fragment, use getChildFragmentManager()
If you are using ViewPager, use getChildFragmentManager() for pager adapter
viewPager.setAdapter(new ItemsAdapter(getChildFragmentManager()));
You have to set a content view in your Activity that your PhotosFragment is attached.
protected void onCreate(Bundle bundle) {
super.onCreate(bundle);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
//...
}
i know this is very late. But it may work for other's.
I declared the id for each layout, like (3rd line bellow)
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
Since Android 4.2 (API 17) nested fragments become avaliable.
See this
To place fragment inside other fragment use getChildFragmentManager()
Also available in support library.
I had the same error and after trying a lot of things I found that the problem was with the "id" and "getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager()".
Before i implement i like these
txt_more.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
getChildFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.content_frame, new OpportunitiesFragment())
.commit(); }
});
Then i changed to these
txt_more.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
## Heading ##
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(android.R.id.content, new OpportunitiesFragment())
.commit(); }
});
Put this block of code in PhotosFragment2 onCreateView method:
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.photos2, null);
instead of:
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.photos2, container, false);
in my case I had to change
ViewGroup root = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.sample,
container);
to
ViewGroup root = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.sample,
container, false);
This answer highlights a silly mistake that may occur, that arises when nesting fragments or you are converting activities to fragments.
If you are trying to replace a fragment within a fragment with the fragmentManager but you are not inflating the parent fragment that can cause an issue.
In BaseFragment.java OnCreateView:
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, new DifferentFragment())
.commit();
}
return super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
Replace super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
with inflating the correct layout for the fragment:
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.base_fragment, container, false);
The problem may be that you add a fragment and beginTransaction in some fragment like
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(android.R.id.content, ImageBrowseFragment.newInstance(bundle),"ImageBrowseFragment")
.addToBackStack(null).commit();
I just change getFragmentManager() to getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager()
Then everything goes fine
When you add a fragment in a fragment use android.R.id.content Or Window.ID_ANDROID_CONTENT,I guess it represents the root container of your fragment not the activity. So change to getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager() works it out
If you use ViewPager with fragments (pages) and try to show a new fragment from a page, you will get this error. I think, you cannot reference to a container of an Activity from a ViewPager's page.
In this case you should call getActivity(). Then in Activity write a method that will open a new fragment.
class YourActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
fun showNewFragment(title: String) {
val fm = supportFragmentManager
fm?.beginTransaction()?.apply {
val fragment = NewFragment.newInstance(title)
replace(R.id.container, fragment, NewFragment.TAG)
addToBackStack(null)
}?.commit()
}
}
class PageFragment : Fragment() {
private fun show() {
(activity as YourActivity).showNewFragment("New fragment")
}
}
If you call getParentFragment() and add a new fragment, then you will place a new fragment inside ViewPager:
class ViewPagerFragment : Fragment() {
fun showNewFragment(title: String) {
val fm = childFragmentManager
fm?.beginTransaction()?.apply {
val fragment = NewFragment.newInstance(title)
replace(R.id.container, fragment, NewFragment.TAG)
addToBackStack(null)
}?.commit()
}
}
class PageFragment : Fragment() {
private fun show() {
(parentFragment as? ViewPagerFragment)?.showNewFragment("New fragment")
}
}
Make sure the fragment id you are calling is in the class listed in setcontent in onCreate method. For my case, I was editing the layout from linear to constraint. So as not to mess with the working code, I made another layout but messed an id in the process so that what was on oncreate was the edited layout but the fragment being called was from the old layout. Apparently, in the new layout I gave it a different id name. Search the id of your fragment using ctrl+shift+f and see if the search results point to the layout you specified in the oncreate method. Goodluck.
The most common mistake that can be happened is, If you have more than one version of XML layout (let say v21 and v23) and you added <fragment> tag in lower version of XML only (or vice-versa).
So, please check you added <fragment> tag (or pageGroup, etc) in both of the versions.
You are trying to open fragment which fragmentContainer(the view in which you are trying to open fragment) is one or more level above from your current fragmentContainer.
Try to change your fragment hierarchy architecture.
I've never used Fragments before but now I have a PlayerStatus fragment, that I want to use in two different activities. It shows player status:
public class PlayerStatus extends Fragment {
Player player;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.player_status, container, false);
return view;
}
public void setPlayer(Player player) {
this.player = player;
}
}
Fragment's layout looks like this:
<?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:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingTop="0dp" >
<include
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
layout="#layout/money" />
<include
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
layout="#layout/wins" />
<include
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
layout="#layout/level" />
</LinearLayout>
I get it in the activity this way:
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
setContentView(R.layout.game);
fPlayerStatus = (PlayerStatus) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fPlayerStatus);
fPlayerStatus always returns null.
What am I doing wrong?
Read about how to start fragments ,attach/detach from activity , what does commit() do and there are few more basic functions which you should know when using fragments
http://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html
Fragment Basics Tutorial
go through these web sites and you'll definately get through with fragments easily .
To make your fragments work here you have to do the following :
1.Add your fragment to your activity
write the following
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager()
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.YOUR_FRAGMENT_ID_AS_DEFINED_IN_XML , object of your fragment class)
fragmentTransaction.commit();
____________END----------------------------------
There are many other useful methods in the APIs from FragmentTransaction , read them through the link above and you'll be abel to use them easily
Lemme know if it helped.
Your fragment has not been added to the FragmentManager in your Activity.
First do a FragmentTransaction with beginTransaction().add(...) on the getFragmentManager().
And don't forget to commit() it.
I don't Think you can use one Fragment for two Activities.
As i think your approach should be
Step 1
Create two fragment Layouts in your Activity_main
Step 2
then use fragment manager in your activity like below
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.frame,fragment)
fragmentTransaction.commit();
I am trying to show multiple fragments on the one screen by creating them programmatically. I am able to do this no problem by including each fragment into the activities layout file. However when I try and do it programmatically Im confused.This is what I have so far for two fragments on a screen.
Main Class:
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
FragmentOne one = new FragmentOne();
FragmentTwo two = new FragmentTwo();
FragmentThree three = new FragmentThree();
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.add(R.id.imOne, one, "fragmentone");
ft.add(R.id.imTwo, two, "fragmenttwo");
ft.add(R.id.imThree, three, "fragmenthree");
ft.commit();
}
}
Fragment One:
public class FragmentOne extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.frag_one, container, false);
return view;
}
}
Fragment Two:
public class FragmentTwo extends Fragment{
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.frag_two, container, false);
return view;
}
}
The layout files for my two fragment classes just contain a simple TextView.
And then the activity_main.xml layout file for my main class:
<?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" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/imOne"
android:name="com.david.twofragexample.FragmentOne"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="2" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/imTwo"
android:name="com.david.twofragexample.FragmentTwo"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="2" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/imThree"
android:name="com.david.twofragexample.FragmentThree"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="2" />
</LinearLayout>
When I try and do it programatically I get confused as to what should be in my activity_main.xml file. So from the Android Developer Guide(http://developer.android.com/guide/components/fragments.html) it says to use
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager()
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
FragmentOne fragment = new FragmentOne();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragment_container, fragment);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
So when I add this code to my onCreate method what changes do I have to make to my activity_main.xml file to do this programmatically?I don't see where R.id.fragment_container comes from. How can I determine where on the screen my new fragment will go?Thanks
EDIT: I am developing this on a tablet and not a phone.This has now been solved and the above code will add three fragments programmatically.
<?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" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/list"
android:name="com.david.twofragexample.FragmentOne"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="2" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/viewer"
android:name="com.david.twofragexample.FragmentTwo"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="2" />
</LinearLayout>
In your Activity:
FragmentOne one = new FragmentOne();
FragmentTwo two = new FragmentTwo();
fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.list, one, "fragmentone").commit();
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.viewer, two, "fragmenttwo").commit();
I suggest you study this:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html
and fully understand the fragment lifecycle, etc. The way I show is quick and dirty, but not neccesarilly best.
As I don't have higher enough reps to comment yet, I will just leave the information here -- the way Rafael T suggested does work nicely, although I also had my doubt at the first place.
1) Define your xml like this:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
2) Add each fragment into the same slot:
View box = v.findViewById(R.id.container);
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
for (String catalog : mCatalogs) {
Fragment fragment = HighlightedProductFragment.newInstance(catalog);
ft.add(R.id.container, fragment, catalog);
}
ft.commit();
Thanks for the solution for this tricky requirement.
Try it like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
as your activity_main.xml
You asked yourself the right question: where is the id fragment_container, and the answer was: nowhere. >ou also set your layout to horizontal, which makes it very likely, that added Views will be kind of 'out of screen'
Ok, whenever I try to replace a fragment in my application, it only adds the fragment inside of the container the other fragment is, and leaves the current fragment. I've tried calling replace and referencing the view the contains the fragment, and by referencing the fragment itself. Neither of these work. I can add a fragment to a view with the fragment transaction manager, but even if I try to remove it after its been added, it doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Here are my files.
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
//Setup the actionabar. Use setDrawableBackground to set a background image for the actionbar.
final ActionBar actionbar = getActionBar();
actionbar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
actionbar.setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(true);
actionbar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
actionbar.addTab(actionbar.newTab().setText(R.string.home_tab_text).setTabListener(this),true);
actionbar.addTab(actionbar.newTab().setText(R.string.insert_tab_text).setTabListener(this));
Fragment fragment = new insert_button_frag();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.button_fragment, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
Here is the layout
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/button_fragment_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<fragment
android:name="com.bv.silveredittab.home_button_frag"
android:id="#+id/button_fragment"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<fragment
android:name="com.bv.silveredittab.quick_insert_frag"
android:id="#+id/quick_insert_frag"
android:layout_width="350dip"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<fragment
android:name="com.bv.silveredittab.editor_frag"
android:id="#+id/editor_frag"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And here is the fragment code
public class insert_button_frag extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.insert_buttons,container, false);
}
}
Like I have said. I have tried referencing the fragments parent view to replace it, and the fragment itself (by id) and still, it only adds the new fragment, inside the containing view the original fragment is in.
I solved this by using a placeholder in my Layout and then attaching my Fragment to it at runtime.
Like you, if I instantiated my Fragment within my xml layout then the contents would remain visible after replacing it with another Fragment at runtime.
The problem is this line:
transaction.replace(R.id.button_fragment, fragment);
replace has two overloaded forms. In both of them, the first argument is the container of the Fragment to be replaced, not the Fragment itself. So, in your case, you need to call
transaction.replace(R.id.button_fragment_container, fragment);
edit: I see in your question that you have tried both. I have tested and verified the behavior. This appears to be a bug in the FragmentTransaction API.
Edit2: not a bug after all. You simply cannot replace fragments added statically in a layout file. You can only replace those you have added programmatically ( Android: can't replace one fragment with another )
I had the same issue. Take a look at this link: Android Fragment Duplication
I wonder if the fact that you're passing the container into the inflater.inflate() method causes it to create the new fragment inside of the old one instead of a wholesale replace. I've been providing 'null' to my inflaters in the working version.
Here's the essentials from the version I have working...
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState){
View newFrag = new View(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
newFrag = inflater.inflate(R.id.frag, null);
return newFrag;
}
The google developer guide is quite confusing because it shows first to implement hard coded fragment in you xml. But if you really want to replace existing fragment with the new one, then you should add it(the first) at runtime.
What official site state is
FragmentTransaction replace (int containerViewId, Fragment fragment, String tag)
Replace an existing fragment that was added to a container. This is
essentially the same as calling remove(Fragment) for all currently
added fragments that were added with the same containerViewId and then
add(int, Fragment, String) with the same arguments given here.
You should noticed that it says that Replace an existing fragment that was added to container
So, your xml should look like
someActivity.xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
...
tools:context="someActivity">
<ImageView
.../>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity="bottom"/>
</RelativeLayout>
And than in your activity do in OnCreate()
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
[...]
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.fragment_container, new FirstFragment).commit();
}
Than you may easily replace fragment with your animations and event add it to back stack in order to save its state.
private SecondFrag getSecondFrag(){
if(secondFrag == null)
secondFrag = new SecondFrag()
return secondFrag;
}
private void openRechargeFragment(){
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.show_frag, R.anim.hide_frag,
R.anim.show_frag, R.anim.hide_frag);
ft.replace(R.id.fragment_container, getSecondFrag(), "myTAG");
ft.addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
}
