I try to create a TextView that pops up at the bottom just like Google Hangout appen. The Google Hangout app show a popup for a few sec saying signed-in as xxx.
I have this classic Navigation drawer layout
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout 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"
android:id="@+id/drawer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context="com.port.android.ui.ActivityMain">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
layout="@layout/tool_bar" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
</FrameLayout>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/popup_logged_in"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@color/PrimaryColor"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:padding="15dp"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:visibility="gone"
android:gravity="center"
android:textColor="@android:color/white"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
app:headerLayout="@layout/navigation_view_header"
app:menu="@menu/menu_navigation">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:padding="20dp"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button
android:id="@+id/btn_exit"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:onClick="exitAddress"
android:text="Exit Address"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
As you see I put a TextView inside the LinearLayout and it do show up when i do view.animate() but it pushes the layout up and I want it to stay on top.
So I try a RelativeLayout but that made the toolbar disappear.
Here´s the AppCompatActivity if it helps:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
if (Application.getInstance().isClosing())
finish();
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
popUpThreadPoolFactory = new PopUpThreadPoolFactory(this);
fragManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
mMainAdapter = new ActivityMainAdapter(this);
// Initializing Toolbar and setting it as the actionbar
mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
//Initializing NavigationView
mNavigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navigation_view);
mNavigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
// Initializing Drawer Layout and ActionBarToggle
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer);
((Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_exit)).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
FirebaseManager.getInstance().exitCurrentAddress();
}
});
mActionBarDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout, mToolbar, R.string.openDrawer, R.string.closeDrawer) {
@Override
public void onDrawerClosed(View drawerView) {
// Code here will be triggered once the drawer closes as we dont want anything to happen so we leave this blank
super.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
}
@Override
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
// Code here will be triggered once the drawer open as we dont want anything to happen so we leave this blank
super.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
}
};
//Setting the actionbarToggle to drawer layout
mDrawerLayout.addDrawerListener(mActionBarDrawerToggle);
//calling sync state is necessay or else your hamburger icon wont show up
mActionBarDrawerToggle.syncState();
// Initialize Firebase Analytics
mFirebaseAnalytics = FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance(this);
// ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
// See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
client2 = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this).addApi(AppIndex.API).build();
}
@Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
// ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
// See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
client2.connect();
// ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
// See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
Action viewAction = Action.newAction(
Action.TYPE_VIEW, // TODO: choose an action type.
"ActivityMain Page", // TODO: Define a title for the content shown.
// TODO: If you have web page content that matches this app activity's content,
// make sure this auto-generated web page URL is correct.
// Otherwise, set the URL to null.
Uri.parse("http://host/path"),
// TODO: Make sure this auto-generated app URL is correct.
Uri.parse("android-app://com.port.android/http/host/path")
);
AppIndex.AppIndexApi.start(client2, viewAction);
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
MyLog.i(TAG, "onResume");
Application.getInstance().addUIListener(OnConnectionStateListener.class, this);
Application.getInstance().addUIListener(OnExitAddressListener.class, this);
Application.getInstance().addUIListener(OnUserSignedInListener.class, this);
// update state
if (Application.getInstance().isInitialized() && !Application.getInstance().isClosing()) {
MyLog.i(TAG, "Application isInitialized activating adapter");
mainAdapterOnChange();
} else
MyLog.i(TAG, "Wait for loading or closing");
}
I think you are searching about a SnackBar.. If this is what you are trying then here is an example.
In you Activity where you want to show this, Bind your parent Layout.Suppose:
in your activity.xml
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
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"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
android:id="@+id/cd"
tools:context="com.example.ayyappaboddupalli.dragmaker.MainActivity">
In your activity.java class:
CoordinatorLayout cd=(CoodinatorLayour)findViewById(R.id.cd);
Now if you want to show that popup on click of a button:
btn.setOnClickListener(new onClickListener()
public void onClick(View v)
{
Snackbar.make(cd,"text you want to show",Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
);
