I have been trying to get the shadow under the app Action bar to disappear but it wont which is very annoying. iI have set the theme to NoActionBar and opted to using toolbar instead.
And have i have also set the elevation to 0dp in my activity.java
package com.example.drawerlayout;
import androidx.appcompat.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.drawerlayout.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar;
import com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout;
private ActionBarDrawerToggle mToggle;
private Toolbar mToolbar;
private AppBarLayout actionLayout;
private Toolbar t;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
mToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout, R.string.open, R.string.close);
mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.nav_action);
setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
mDrawerLayout.addDrawerListener(mToggle);
mToggle.syncState();
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
getSupportActionBar().setElevation(0);
}
}
The Toolbar looks thus:
<?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"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/nav_action"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/mm_blue" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Simply add app:elevation="0dp"
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:elevation="0dp">
<!-- Toolbar -->
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
Set this property toolbar:elevation="0dp" to AppBarLayout to remove shadow from Toolbar.
eg-
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
toolbar:elevation="0dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/nav_action"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/mm_blue" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
Check below code
<?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"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:elevation="0dp"
app:elevation="0dp">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/nav_action"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/mm_blue" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Just remove the AppBar layout and directly put your toolbar in the coordinate layout:
<?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"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/nav_action"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/mm_blue" />
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Try this may it should help you out.

Hi guys I search on google about how to disable the swipe that open the drawerLayout i found this 2 codes.
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED, GravityCompat.END);
but these 2 codes disable the opening of drawerLayout from the swipe and from the actionBarDrawerToggle like disabling it at all. Now the question is how can i disable the swipe that opens the drawerLayout without disabling the open by the ActionBarDrawerToggle. This is my application codes.

}
private void drawerSetUp() {
ActionBarDrawerToggle _toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(MainActivity.this, _drawer, _toolbar,
R.string.app_name, R.string.app_name);
_drawer.addDrawerListener(_toggle);
_toggle.syncState();
_drawer.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);

Android newbie here.
I'm trying to set an onClick event on a LinearLayout. But I keep getting the error
Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.widget.LinearLayout.setOnClickListener(android.view.View$OnClickListener)' on a null object reference
Which, if I understand correctly means that the reference is null. Which doesn't make sense to me since I'm calling it after onCreate
Here's my code, anybody have any clues what I'm doing wrong?
MainActivity - The place with HERE! is where the crash is occuring
package ...
import ...
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
final NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
setNavHeaderOnClickAction();
}
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// ...
}
public void setNavHeaderOnClickAction(){
// HERE! Here's the problemsome area
LinearLayout navHeaderUser = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.nav_header_user);
navHeaderUser.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Intent myIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, UserProfile.class);
// MainActivity.this.startActivity(myIntent);
// DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
// drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
});
}

NavigationView header is usually included this way:
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nvView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#android:color/white"
app:headerLayout="#layout/main_drawer_header"
app:itemTextColor="#color/black"
app:menu="#menu/menu_main_drawer"
app:itemIconTint="#null"/>
Since support libraries version 23.1.0 NavigationView is using a RecyclerView and the header is added as one of RecyclerView's items.
Activity's findViewById won't find the header and its internals.
To get access to it you need to get the header from NavigationView and call findViewById relative to header view:
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nvView);
View navHeaderview = navigationView.getHeaderView(0);
LinearLayout navHeaderUser = (LinearLayout) navHeaderview.findViewById(R.id.nav_header_user);
navHeaderUser.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Intent myIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, UserProfile.class);
// MainActivity.this.startActivity(myIntent);
// DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
// drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
});
Hope I got it right and it'll work for you!
I am currently creating a navigation menu without using fragments. I've seemingly created the working system that opens classes and keeps the navigation bar present at each stage by using a BaseActivity and inheriting it into the classes that need the drawer. However upon loading the app seemingly the 3 bar 'Hamburger' icon isn't present and neither is the toolbar at the top (See photo). The navigation bar does seemingly work as I can swipe from the left and click to load other classes. I feel like my onCreate() in my BaseActivity is missing something but with googling I can't seem to find a solution.
Image of current issue:
Image of Nav Bar Working with issue in background:
This is my base activity:
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.NavigationView;
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class BaseActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
ActionBarDrawerToggle actionBarDrawerToggle;
Toolbar toolbar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navigation_view);
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
actionBarDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawerLayout, toolbar, R.string.drawer_open, R.string.drawer_closed);
drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(actionBarDrawerToggle);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(new NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Intent anIntent;
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.nav_homepage:
anIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), homepage.class);
startActivity(anIntent);
drawerLayout.closeDrawers();
break;
case R.id.nav_add_roster:
anIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), add_roster.class);
startActivity(anIntent);
drawerLayout.closeDrawers();
break;
case R.id.nav_check_schedule:
anIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), schedule.class);
startActivity(anIntent);
drawerLayout.closeDrawers();
break;
}
return false;
}
});
}
}
Here's my homepage which is what is loaded initially:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.FrameLayout;
public class homepage extends BaseActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
FrameLayout contentFrameLayout = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.content_frame); //Remember this is the FrameLayout area within your content_main.xml
getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.homepage, contentFrameLayout);
}
}
Here's my activity main:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout 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:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/content_frame"/>
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
You can try this, add the code below in your BaseActivity :
#Override
public void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
actionBarDrawerToggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
actionBarDrawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
EDIT:
Enable the home button in your onCreate function of BaseActivity as well :
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
There is missing a toolbar layout in your xml :
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<com.toptoche.searchablespinnerlibrary.SearchableSpinner
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:hintText="Select category"
android:id="#+id/affiliator_category_spinner"/>
<ExpandableListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/rectangular_shap"
android:id="#+id/affiliators_listview"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
And choose_affiliator_menu.xml file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:title="#string/done"
android:orderInCategory="1"
android:id="#+id/next_btn"
app:showAsAction="always" />
</menu>
And the java code itself:
public class CreditsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_credits);
Toolbar actionBar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
actionBar.setTitle("Memberships");
//....
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.choose_affiliator_menu, menu);
return true;
}
}
You should use below method after initialization of Toolbar.
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
I have a mainactivity.xml that has a framelayout and inside that has a toolbar
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity"
tools:ignore="MergeRootFrame" >
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id = "#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" />
</FrameLayout>
Inside my mainactivity.java, I have this
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment())
.commit();
}
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
Based on the tutorial here, http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2014/10/appcompat-v21-material-design-for-pre.html, I should have a custom Toolbar that acts as an actionbar. However, the toolbar that appears happens under the fragments that I add in the block. The toolbar is supposed to appear above them and shift them downwards, but now the views cover the actionbar toolbar. Is this a glitch or am I simply forgetting something? This actually worked before but is now broken for some reason.
The Toolbar needs to be outside of the FrameLayout that is going to hold your Fragment like so:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id = "#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity"
tools:ignore="MergeRootFrame" >
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
