How to make recyclerView_items unclickable, while one of them is clicked and working?

Question

Premise

Each of my RecyclerView_items displays an image, and changes its image_resource when tapped.
One of them is the right answer which has additional function: navigation to another fragment 5-second after changing its image.

Basically, the function of clickListener of RecyclerView_items is

• wrong item
  click -> change image_resource
• right item
  click -> change image_resource -> delay(5000) -> navigate to another fragment

Problem

Then, my problem is that after the right_item is tapped, other items are clickable during delay(5000). I don't want them to change their images during delay(5000).

How to do it?! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You can achieve this by adding a flag at time when user click right image then make that variable false. As such after the delay before moving to the next fragment make it true again.

boolean flag = true;

then in your item click method

view.setOnClickListner {
 if (flag) {
   if (rightimageclicked) {
       flag = false;
       delay { 
        flag = true;
        // Move to other fragment  
       }
   } else {
       // change the image for wrong click
   }
 }
}
