I'm trying to get a completely custom Dialog or PopupWindow, without any of the default Android UI controls (title, background, buttons, whatever).
Is this possible at all? I've spent hours searching for this, but no luck... It seems like this should be easily possible, but I can't find it.
Preferably this would be by inflating a View from XML, but at this point anything that would just work would be nice.
Thanks.
Steps I took:
setContentView(x, y)
with x
being your R.layout and y
being R.style.popupStyle (see below).<style name="Theme.Dialog"> <item name="android:windowFrame">@null</item> <item name="android:windowTitleStyle">@android:style/DialogWindowTitle</item> <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:drawable/panel_background</item> <item name="android:windowIsFloating">true</item> <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item> <item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@android:style/Animation.Dialog</item> <item name="android:windowSoftInputMode">stateUnspecified|adjustPan</item> </style>
You'll get a few errors, just solve them by copying more stuff from the official Android styles.xml and themes.xml files. Here's the contents of my styles.xml file: http://pastebin.com/RRR15YYS
That just gives you a white popup, no borders, nothing. Start customizing. :)
Thanks to mbaird for putting me on the right track.
[edit] I needed to look up my own answer again, and I spent at least ten minutes searching the official android styles/themes files, so here they are, for future reference: styles.xml and themes.xml.
