And here is my output.I want to increase the width and height of the dialog.
And my java file
public class MyDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {
public MyDialogFragment() {
}
private EditText mEditText;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialogfragment, container);
// mEditText = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.txt_your_name);
// getDialog().setTitle("Hello");
getDialog().requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
return view;
}
}
Answer
Change your dialog dimension on runtime:
yourDialog.show();
yourDialog.getWindow().setLayout((6 * width)/7, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
You can do that for both dimension, in my example i only changed the width. Hope it helps!
EDIT
I forgot to mention where i took width:
DisplayMetrics metrics = getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
int width = metrics.widthPixels;
int height = metrics.heightPixels;
EDIT 2
Try this code:
Dialog yourDialog = dialogFragment.getDialog();
yourDialog.getWindow().setLayout((6 * width)/7, (4 * height)/5);
