As displayed in this image, I added a SearchView to the Toolbar and a Label to the bottom of that Toolbar.
But when I extend the SearchView for typing, it hides/removes all Labels as shown here. Any Ideas how to fix this?
Additionally, how do I get the Search-Label on the left on the same line as the icons?
activity_search.xml:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".SearchActivity">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/top_toolbar"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="80dp"
app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center|bottom"
android:paddingBottom="16dp"
android:text="Label"/>
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</RelativeLayout>
menu_search.xml
<menu 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" tools:context=".SearchActivity">
<item
android:id="@+id/action_search"
android:icon="@android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
app:showAsAction="always"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
android:title="Search"/>
<item
android:id="@+id/action_settings"
android:title="@string/action_settings"
android:orderInCategory="100"
app:showAsAction="never" />
I fixed that issue by adding the SearchView directly to the Toolbar instead of adding it to the menu. Since that not fixed the repositioning of the label I use a FrameLayout inside the Toolbar. Additionally I added a maxWidth to the SearchView, since the expanded SearchView overlaps the TitleLabel. As alternative I could manually hide the TitleLabel when the SearchView expands.
The xml of my Toolbar:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/search_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="70dp"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="@dimen/abc_action_button_min_height_material"
android:text="Title"
android:layout_gravity="left|top"
android:gravity="center_vertical|left"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/abc_action_bar_default_padding_material"
android:id="@+id/toolbar_title"
android:textColor="@color/abc_primary_text_material_dark"
android:textSize="@dimen/abc_text_size_title_material_toolbar"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Toolbar Title"
android:layout_gravity="center|bottom"
android:id="@+id/toolbar_label"/>
<SearchView
android:id="@+id/menu_search"
android:layout_gravity="right|top"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:maxWidth="250dp"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/abc_action_bar_default_padding_material"/>
</FrameLayout>
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
