I've done a few researches on this topic but I couldn't found some solution for my App/ Activity.
First, I have tried to change the themes in my AndroidManifest.xml:
values/styles.xml:
<style name="AppTheme.ActionBar.Transparent" parent="AppTheme">
<item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
<item name="windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>
<item name="colorPrimary">@android:color/transparent</item>
and
values-v21/styles.xml:
<style name="AppTheme.ActionBar.Transparent" parent="AppTheme">
<item name="colorPrimary">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>
But thats the result:
So I only get some light grey action bar with some gaps on the left/ right side.
Second, I have tried using fitsSystemWindow="true"
and android:background="@android:color/transparent"
in my layouts, but it also didn't fix the issue.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context="com.example.poweranimal.letsgo.Application.MainActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@android:color/transparent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"/>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<include layout="@layout/content_main" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
But I get the same output as before:( 2. In addition I have tried also the get a transparent status bar with:
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS);
and
<item name="android:statusBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>
but this didn't work too (nothing has changed).
What I actually want is something like this:
Would be cool if anyone has a possible solution for me.
Thanks in advance.
1. First, you have to change your layout
structure to show MAP
under transparent Toolbar
& StatusBar
and also to remove left and right gap
from your existing Toolbar
.
activity_main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
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:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="false">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_marginTop="24dp"
android:elevation="1dp" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@drawable/sample_map">
<!-- put your content here -->
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
2. In your MainActivity
, do below things to initialize Toolbar
and make Toolbar
and StatusBar
as transparent
.
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
// Toolbar :: Transparent
toolbar.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("StackOverflow");
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
// Status bar :: Transparent
Window window = this.getWindow();
if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
{
window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DRAWS_SYSTEM_BAR_BACKGROUNDS);
window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS);
window.setStatusBarColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
}
...........
..................
}
3. Apply below theme to your MainActivity
.
values/styles.xml:
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
.......
...........
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
AndroidManifest.xml:
<activity
android:name=".EmptyActivity"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar">
</activity>
OUTPUT:
FYI, I have just used an sample image of map in my content LinearLayout
to show the behavior. For your case put all of your content(searchbar, map
) inside it.
Hope this will help~
