I am trying to make something like a pop-up window, that would appear when clicked on a view in a fragment. I want this pop-up window or whatever, to not make the fragment dark, like a Dialog Fragment does. And I also want the pop up to be positioned where the view is clicked. Would be good if it has its own activity and layout so I can do some custom changes in it. Can you plese show me some sample code?
The following should work perfect in accordance with your specification. Call this method from inside onClick(View v)
of OnClickListener
assigned to the View:
public void showPopup(View anchorView) {
View popupView = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.popup_layout, null);
PopupWindow popupWindow = new PopupWindow(popupView,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
// Example: If you have a TextView inside `popup_layout.xml`
TextView tv = (TextView) popupView.findViewById(R.id.tv);
tv.setText(....);
// Initialize more widgets from `popup_layout.xml`
....
....
// If the PopupWindow should be focusable
popupWindow.setFocusable(true);
// If you need the PopupWindow to dismiss when when touched outside
popupWindow.setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable());
int location[] = new int[2];
// Get the View's(the one that was clicked in the Fragment) location
anchorView.getLocationOnScreen(location);
// Using location, the PopupWindow will be displayed right under anchorView
popupWindow.showAtLocation(anchorView, Gravity.NO_GRAVITY,
location[0], location[1] + anchorView.getHeight());
}
The comments should explain this well enough. anchorView
is the v
from onClick(View v)
.
