Show/Hide Fragment instead of replace

I have 3 and more fragments and I want to access them with the drawer.
So that when I click on "Profile" the current fragment(i.e. Home) should hide and "Profile" fragment should show and vice versa..
Right now its working with "replace fragment" but,
Instead of replace I want to show/hide them when I click on the drawer button.
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//my coding
replace(new HomeFragment());
init();
}
private void init() {
mDrawer = (FlowingDrawer) findViewById(R.id.drawerlayout);
iv_Menu = findViewById(R.id.iv_Menu);
ll_Home = findViewById(R.id.ll_Home);
ll_Profile = findViewById(R.id.ll_Profile);
ll_Setting = findViewById(R.id.ll_Setting);
ll_Share = findViewById(R.id.ll_Share);
ll_Logout = findViewById(R.id.ll_Logout);
iv_Menu.setOnClickListener(this);
ll_Home.setOnClickListener(this);
ll_Profile.setOnClickListener(this);
ll_Setting.setOnClickListener(this);
ll_Share.setOnClickListener(this);
ll_Logout.setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
switch (view.getId()){
case R.id.iv_Menu:
mDrawer.openMenu(true);
break;
case R.id.ll_Home:
replace(new HomeFragment(),"Home");
mDrawer.closeMenu(true);
break;
case R.id.ll_Profile:
replace(new ProfileFragment(),"Profile");
mDrawer.closeMenu(true);
break;
case R.id.ll_Setting:
startActivity(new Intent(this, SimplPreach.class));
mDrawer.closeMenu(true);
break;
case R.id.ll_Share:
Toast.makeText(this, "Share.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
mDrawer.closeMenu(true);
break;
case R.id.ll_Logout:
Toast.makeText(this, "Logout.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
mDrawer.closeMenu(true);
break;
}
}
private void replace(Fragment fragment, String s) {
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.fl_Main,fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(s);
transaction.commit();
}
private void replace(Fragment fragment) {
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.fl_Main,fragment);
transaction.commit();
}
I have been searching from hours but nothing is working,
How can I use show hide instead of replace ..
Please help me..

FragmentTransaction has the following methods you can use.
show(Fragment fragment)
hide(Fragment fragment)
add(int containerViewId, Fragment fragment, String tag)
And I think you don't need to call transaction.addToBackStack(s) in your case.

Trying To Open Up A New Screen/Activity In Android

I am trying to switch to a new screen when the user clicks on one of the options. This code is nested in the main activity.
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.about_settings:
Log.d("tcc", "This is getting to the about fragment");
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, HelpFragment.class));
return true;
case R.id.help_settings:
Log.d("tcc", "This is getting to the help fragment");
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, SettingsFragment.class));
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
I am then trying to get it to switch to one of the fragments that I have created. When I do this though I am getting an error:
Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo{info.hccis.bookingapplication/info.hccis.bookingapplication.SettingsFragment}: java.lang.ClassCastException: info.hccis.bookingapplication.SettingsFragment cannot be cast to android.app.Activity

You want to do Fragment Transactions not startActivity :
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.about_settings:
Log.d("tcc", "This is getting to the about fragment");
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, new HelpFragment());
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null); // to provided navigation when back is clicked
fragmentTransaction.commit();
return true;
case R.id.help_settings:
Log.d("tcc", "This is getting to the help fragment");
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, new SettingsFragment());
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null); // to provided navigation when back is clicked
fragmentTransaction.commit();
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
And define a fragment coinainer/which will be replaced by your
fragments: in your Activity's View:
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

Fragment Transaction shows Tabs Fragment below

I'm making an app that has launches with a Swiping Tabs Fragment, but I also want to have a Preferences menu using Fragment Transaction. When I press the Settings button in my app, the preferences menu does appear and is interactive, but the layout seems to be transparent showing the Tabs below. Is there anything that can be done to fix this, or is there a better method?
Code that calls the Preferences Menu from the Options:
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(final MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
getFragmentManager().popBackStackImmediate();
break;
case R.id.logout:
FirebaseAuth.getInstance().signOut();
finish();
startActivity(new Intent(this, Activity_Main.class));
break;
case R.id.action_settings:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(android.R.id.content, new Fragment_Settings()).addToBackStack(null)
.commit();
break;
}
return true;
}
Code that calls Tabs Fragments:
public class TabsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public TabsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public android.support.v4.app.Fragment getItem(int index) {
switch (index) {
case 0:
// Top Rated fragment activity
return new Fragment_Flower();
case 1:
// Games fragment activity
return new Fragment_Overview();
}
return null;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
// get item count - equal to number of tabs
return 2;
}
}
Initialising Transaction in onCreate:
startService(new Intent(this, SensorListener.class));
if (b == null) {
// Create new fragment and transaction
Fragment newFragment = new Fragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
//Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this
// fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack
transaction.replace(android.R.id.content, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
}
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Just set background color in your layout file. It may avoid transparent backgound.

Display fragments with Navigation Drawer

I'm confused how to open my different fragments by clicking on one Item in my navigation drawer.
In MainActivity I use the following Code:
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Fragment fragment;
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_listview) {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.fragment, new ListFragment());
ft.commit();
} else if (id == R.id.nav_add_data) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_settings) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_legal_information) {
}
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
First of all I want to try to open my ListFragment:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class ListFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_list, container, false);
}
}
In my content main.xml I created the following fragment which should be replaced when clicking on the specific Items in the Navigation Drawer.
<fragment
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/fragment" />
But it isnt working...
Can anyone help me?

To get what you want try this ,I was also held up with this somewhat complex looking code but its more of a easy way to use
Here's detailed explanation and walk through to this issue:
(Its seems Long But You can easily relate your work asap)
When you first create the Navigation Drawer Activity, there are 5 files we’ll look at:
MainActivity.java - this is the code behind for everything in our app.
activity_main.xml - this is the layout for the app including the nav drawer and an include for the app_bar_main.
app_bar_main.xml - this is the layout with the toolbar (at the top), a floating action button (at the bottom right), and an include for content_main.
content_main.xml - this is the layout for the content of the main page.
nav_header_main.xml - this is the UI for the top part of the nav drawer.
Step 1:
open up the app_bar_main.xml, comment out the include and add a new FrameLayout:
<!--<include layout="#layout/content_main" />-->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/Fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize"/>
This FrameLayout is what we’ll use to load our fragments into.
Step 2:
Next, you’ll want to add a few fragments
To do so, right click on your project, or go to File –> New and from the Fragment list choose Fragment (Blank) or others
Step 3:
The next step is to load a fragment when the app first launches. Go to the MainActivity’s onCreate method and put the following in after the call to setSupportActionBar:
Fragment fragment = null;
Class fragmentClass = null;
fragmentClass = FragmentOne.class;
try {
fragment = (Fragment) fragmentClass.newInstance();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.Fragment_container, fragment).commit();
Step 4:
You’ll then need to add OnFragmentInteractionListener to the interfaces your MainActivity implements and also implement the onFragmentInteraction method.Like this
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener, FragmentOne.OnFragmentInteractionListener ,FragmentTwo.OnFragmentInteractionListener,FragmentThree.OnFragmentInteractionListener {
Step 5:
Finally, in the onNavigationItemSelected method, you can add the ability to load different fragments when menu items are tapped:
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
Fragment fragment = null;
Class fragmentClass = null;
if (id == R.id.nav_camera) {
fragmentClass = FragmentOne.class;
} else if (id == R.id.nav_gallery) {
fragmentClass = FragmentTwo.class;
} else if (id == R.id.nav_slideshow) {
fragmentClass = FragmentThree.class;
} else if (id == R.id.nav_manage) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_share) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_send) {
}
try {
fragment = (Fragment) fragmentClass.newInstance();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.flContent, fragment).commit();
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
Here I’m just loading one of the two fragments I’ve added to my app. Note that because I have two different fragments, I had to implement the interfaces for both FragmentOne.OnFragmentInteractionListener and FragmentTwo.OnFragmentInteractionListener.
That’s all you need to do to implement fragment loading in your Navigation Drawer.
What the user taps a menu item, the drawer will slide back in smoothly and the new fragment will have already started / finished loading. This also prevents any possible jankiness that you could see when launching a new activity.
EXTRA
One last thing to note is that if you switch to a different fragment and then rotate the device or cause another recreation of the activity, the code above will cause the first fragment to be reloaded. One easy way to deal with that is to wrap the fragment block in the onCreate method in a check to see if the savedInstanceState is not null like this:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
//Fragment load code
}
...
}

Try this Code
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Fragment fragment=null;
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_listview) {
fragment= new ListFragment();
} else if (id == R.id.nav_add_data) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_settings) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_legal_information) {
}
ft.replace(R.id.container, fragment);
ft.addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/container" />

Please Change The name of your fragment class ListFragment Because ListFragment is already Sub Class of Fragments in android.app package android OS

Mhmm I found an answer. But I am confused.
If I use:
if (id == R.id.nav_listview) {
fragment= new com.thomas.testapp.ListFragment();
It works. But I only have to use the package name if I want to open my ListFragment. Why?

I suggest to Create codes More Dynamic
first of all, if you have custom class to create Navigation Drawer, use listener to call methods from your activity
there is class call HomeFragment extends Fragment, so we have :
if(condition){
fragment = new HomeFragment();
// if there is Listener
if(mListener != null){
mListener.someMethod
}
// Other Settings And Codes
}

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
// ...
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// ...From section above...
// Find our drawer view
nvDrawer = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nvView);
// Setup drawer view
setupDrawerContent(nvDrawer);
}
private void setupDrawerContent(NavigationView navigationView) {
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(
new NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem menuItem) {
selectDrawerItem(menuItem);
return true;
}
});
}
public void selectDrawerItem(MenuItem menuItem) {
// Create a new fragment and specify the fragment to show based on nav item clicked
Fragment fragment = null;
Class fragmentClass;
switch(menuItem.getItemId()) {
case R.id.nav_first_fragment:
fragmentClass = FirstFragment.class;
break;
case R.id.nav_second_fragment:
fragmentClass = SecondFragment.class;
break;
case R.id.nav_third_fragment:
fragmentClass = ThirdFragment.class;
break;
default:
fragmentClass = FirstFragment.class;
}
try {
fragment = (Fragment) fragmentClass.newInstance();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Insert the fragment by replacing any existing fragment
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.flContent, fragment).commit();
// Highlight the selected item has been done by NavigationView
menuItem.setChecked(true);
// Set action bar title
setTitle(menuItem.getTitle());
// Close the navigation drawer
mDrawer.closeDrawers();
}
// ...
}

Getting Actionbar Tabs to Stick on Fragment

I currently have a MainActivity.java which should be the only activity class. Though in that activity class I have a nav-drawer which links to other fragment views.
Currently the main issue Im facing is implementing tabs under a fragment and making them just be available for only that fragment and subfragments. I ran my application and the tabs appeared, but they also appear on other fragments after I visit the TeamsAndDriversFragment.
In my MainActivity.java I have the following function which helps point to the fragments it will generate once someone clicks on them in the nav-drawer:
/**
* Diplaying fragment view for selected nav drawer list item
* */
private void displayView(int position) {
// update the main content by replacing fragments
Fragment fragment = null;
switch (position) {
case 0:
fragment = new TimeAndScoringFragment();
break;
case 1:
fragment = new ScheduleFragment();
break;
case 2:
fragment = new StandingsFragment();
break;
case 3:
fragment = new TeamsAndDriversFragment();
break;
case 4:
fragment = new NewsFragment();
break;
default:
break;
}
if (fragment != null) {
// Create a fragment transaction object to be able to switch fragments
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// Replace whatever is in the fragment container view with this fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
// update selected item and title, then close the drawer
mDrawerList.setItemChecked(position, true);
mDrawerList.setSelection(position);
setTitle(navMenuTitles[position]);
mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(mDrawerList);
} else {
// error in creating fragment
Log.e("MainActivity", "Error in creating fragment");
}
}
Here is my current TeamsAndDriversFragment class where I have an actionbar navigation with tabs:
public class TeamsAndDriversFragment extends Fragment implements TabListener {
private List<Fragment> fragList = new ArrayList<Fragment>();
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstance) {
super.onCreate(savedInstance);
ActionBar bar = getActivity().getActionBar();
bar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
Tab mTeamsTab = bar.newTab();
mTeamsTab.setText("Teams");
mTeamsTab.setTabListener(this);
bar.addTab(mTeamsTab);
Tab mDriversTab = bar.newTab();
mDriversTab.setText("Drivers");
mDriversTab.setTabListener(this);
bar.addTab(mDriversTab);
}
#Override
public void onTabReselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
}
#Override
public void onTabSelected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
Fragment f = null;
TabFragment tf = null;
if(fragList.size() > tab.getPosition()) {
fragList.get(tab.getPosition());
}
if(f == null) {
tf = new TabFragment();
Bundle data = new Bundle();
data.putInt("idx", tab.getPosition());
tf.setArguments(data);
fragList.add(tf);
} else {
tf = (TabFragment) f;
}
ft.replace(android.R.id.content, tf);
}
#Override
public void onTabUnselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
if(fragList.size() > tab.getPosition()) {
ft.remove(fragList.get(tab.getPosition()));
}
}
}

In the displayView() method simply remove all tabs from the ActionBar, this way you'll always have a clean ActionBar with the exception of the TeamsAndDriversFragment fragment:
private void displayView(int position) {
getSupportActionBar().removeAllTabs();
// ...
}
