Search option in toolbar as second line


I have used toolbar for search option but what I am unable to understand is how to get the search menu inside toolbar second line like this below.

I have used SearchDialog and done it but it comes like below.

but its overlapping like this

Do I have to use collapse bar? Have tried both SearchView and SearchDialog but not sure how to get above result.

Here is my toolbar xml code.

 <com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.GoodIes.AppBarOverlay">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:background="@color/teal_200"
        app:popupTheme="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title.Inverse" />

</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>

Solution

  • You can add child component inside the Toolbar like below :

        <com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content">
          <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            android:background="#F45465"
            app:popupTheme="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title.Inverse">
            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:orientation="vertical">
                <TextView
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_weight="1"
                    android:textColor="#000000"
                    android:text="Title"
                    android:textStyle="bold"/>
    
                <TextView
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_weight="1"
                    android:textColor="#000000"
                    android:text="Subtitle"
                    android:textStyle="bold"/>
            </LinearLayout>
        </androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar>
    </com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>

    There is many way to archive view like your example, usually I only use Cardview and some TextView for customing my Toolbar.

    Edit

    For collapsing toolbar you need CoordinatorLayout and CollapsingToolbarLayout, so you need to do something like :

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
     <androidx.coordinatorlayout.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:background="@color/colorPrimary">
        <com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="wrap_content"
           android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">
           <com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              app:contentScrim="?attr/colorPrimary"
              app:expandedTitleTextAppearance="@android:color/transparent"
              app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed">
              <ImageView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="250dp"
                android:scaleType="fitXY"
                android:contentDescription="@string/image_desc_movie_detail"
                app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"
                android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"/>
    
              <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
                app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
                app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
            </com.google.android.material.appbar.CollapsingToolbarLayout>
        </com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
       
       <androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent"
          android:clipToPadding="false"
          app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
              
          Your content here ...
    
        </androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>
    </androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
    

    The short explanation, there is ImageView and Toolbar inside CollapsingToolbarLayout. The ImageView will hide/show when your content scroll. There is many long explanation on Google, you will find one.
