Android Toolbar widget is the new UI android components available in AppCompt v21. It works just like action bar. It can be used as action bar in a dialog with support from API 7 onwards . This tutorial helps to create a toolbar in android dialog display. Use the following steps to complete this task.
Step -1 You have to put AppCompat dependencies in build.gradle(app)
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.1.0'
Step-2 Now you need to include Android Tool Bar layout in your custom dialog layout in xml.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/my_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="@+id/my_toolbar"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"
android:layout_marginTop="50dp"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Step-3 Create a class ActionBarDialog which extends DialogFragment class.
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.DialogFragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.view.Window;
import android.widget.TextView;
/**
* Created by arvindkumar on 3/6/15.
*/
public class ActionBarDialog extends DialogFragment {
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Bundle args = getArguments();
String title = args.getString("title");
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.action_bar_dialog, container, false);
TextView tv = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.text);
tv.setText("This is an instance of ActionBarDialog");
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) v.findViewById(R.id.my_toolbar);
toolbar.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new Toolbar.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
// Handle the menu item
return true;
}
});
toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.menu_main);
toolbar.setTitle(title);
return v;
}
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Dialog dialog = super.onCreateDialog(savedInstanceState);
// request a window without the title
dialog.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
return dialog;
}
}
Step-4 Need a specified theme
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->
<!-- your app branding color for the app bar -->
<item name="colorPrimary">#ff19b525</item>
<!-- darker variant for the status bar and contextual app bars -->
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#ff189f1f</item>
<!-- theme UI controls like checkboxes and text fields -->
<item name="colorAccent">#ff2fff2b</item>
</style>
Step-5 Our activity don't have action bar so we will use action bar. We need to define a tool bar in this layout
<RelativeLayout 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"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:elevation="8dp"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"/>
Step-6 Now lets create a main activity
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putString("title", "Dialog with Action Bar");
ActionBarDialog actionbarDialog = new ActionBarDialog();
actionbarDialog.setArguments(args);
actionbarDialog.show(getFragmentManager(),"ACTION BAR DIALOG");
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
