FloatingActionButton should be visible without scrolling (in CollapsingToolbarlayout)

How to have a FloatingActionButton visible when initially entering displaying a screen and without scrolling/collapsing the toolbar with a CollapsingToolbarLayout?

This screenshot shows the default behavior with the collapsing toolbar and fab which I want to change to have the fab initially visible regardless of the scroll state.

The Fab is in a Fragment which is attached to an Activity.

Edit The answer from Jantzilla provides a working solution, but requires the FAB to be moved from the fragment to the activity. Is there any solution which doesn't require the fab to be moved?

Solution

  • There is an example of this on Github. The app can also be sampled on the Play store. I recently used this as a reference for a project of my own.

    The Code

    import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout;
import android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout;
import android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;

/**
* Created by romain on 15/10/15.
*/
public class ScrollCollapseLargeToolbarActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private View mFab;
private int mFabTranslationSize = 0;
private boolean mFabIsVisible = true;

public static void start(Context context) {
    Intent intent = new Intent(context, ScrollCollapseLargeToolbarActivity.class);
    context.startActivity(intent);
}

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_scroll_collapse_large_toolbar);

    Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

    String toolbarTitle = getResources().getString(R.string.sample_collapse_scroll_toolbar);
    CollapsingToolbarLayout collapsingToolbar =
            (CollapsingToolbarLayout) findViewById(R.id.collapsing_toolbar);
    collapsingToolbar.setTitle(toolbarTitle);

    mFab = findViewById(R.id.fab);

    NestedScrollView scrollView = (NestedScrollView) findViewById(R.id.nested_scrollview);
    scrollView.setOnScrollChangeListener(new NestedScrollView.OnScrollChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onScrollChange(NestedScrollView v, int scrollX, int scrollY, int oldScrollX, int oldScrollY) {
            if (scrollY > oldScrollY) {
                animateFab(false);
            } else {
                animateFab(true);
            }
        }
    });
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case android.R.id.home:
            finish();
            return true;
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

private void animateFab(boolean show) {
    if (show && !mFabIsVisible) {
        //Show
        mFabIsVisible = true;
        mFab.animate().translationY(0);
    } else if (!show && mFabIsVisible) {
        //Hide
        mFabIsVisible = false;
        if (mFabTranslationSize == 0) {
            int margin = ((CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams) mFab.getLayoutParams()).bottomMargin;
            mFabTranslationSize = mFab.getHeight() + margin * 2;
        }
        mFab.animate().translationY(mFabTranslationSize);
    }
}
}
