I want to customize the popupmenu
in android, default popup menu gives more space ,so I'm trying to change the custom layout in popup menu but I cant figure out how.
Note: I want to do this small popup design so I go with default popup menu but i want to customize it.
findViewById(R.id.menuclick).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
PopupMenu popupMenu = new PopupMenu(Sample1.this, view);
popupMenu.setOnMenuItemClickListener(Sample1.this);
popupMenu.inflate(R.layout.menus_layout);
popupMenu.show();
}
});
To inflate popupMenu
from a button onClick
, use the following code.
btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
PopupMenu popup = new PopupMenu(MainActivity.this, v);
popup.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.pop_up, popup.getMenu());
popup.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Some Text" + item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return true;
}
});
popup.show();//showing popup menu
}
});
EDIT
To style the popupMenu, add the following style.
<style name="PopupMenu" parent="@android:style/Widget.PopupMenu">
<item name="android:popupBackground">#ffffff</item>
</style>
I noticed you also want to add icons next to your text. It is possible to add icons in popupMenu. However it is a better approach to use popup Window instead. Here is a sample code:
PopupWindow mypopupWindow;
setPopUpWindow();
btn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btn);
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mypopupWindow.showAsDropDown(v,-153,0);
//showAsDropDown(below which view you want to show as dropdown,horizontal position, vertical position)
}
}
});
}
private void setPopUpWindow() {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)
getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.popup, null);
Start=(RelativeLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.start_btn);
Pause=(RelativeLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.pause_btn);
Stop=(RelativeLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.stop_btn);
mypopupWindow = new PopupWindow(view,300, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, true);
popup Layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/whitedrawable"
android:paddingRight="0dp"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<RelativeLayout
android:id="@+id/btn1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/startimg"
android:id="@+id/startimg"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingTop="5dp"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingRight="0dp"
android:text="Start"
android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/startimg"
/>
<!-- Continue for other items-->
The whitedrawable
can be used to set a background of your choice. You can use 9patch to get the shadow and rounded corners for the background.
To dismiss the popupWindow, use the following code:
mypopupWindow.getContentView().setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mypopupWindow.dismiss();
}
});
To dismiss using the back button, use:
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
if(mypopupWindow.isShowing()) {
mypopupWindow.dismiss();
return;
}
super.onBackPressed();
}
