I'm facing this particular behaviour and I don't know how to fix it..
In my activity I have this toolbar:
And when you click on the search icon it expands and pushes the other icon to out of the view.
I want to know how could I keep the icon on the right and reduce the search view space.
This is my menu layout:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
android:id="@+id/action_search"
android:title="@string/buscar"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
app:showAsAction="always" />
<item
android:id="@+id/alimentos_basket"
android:orderInCategory="1"
android:title="@string/alimentos_anadidos"
app:showAsAction="always" />
In my activity layout I don't have anything
<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.irixgalicia.irixhealth.app.comidaDiaria.AnadirAlimentoActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<include layout="@layout/content_anadir_alimento" />
And these is the code of the activity where I inflate
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_anadir_alimento, menu);
final MenuItem menuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);
final SearchView searchView = (SearchView) MenuItemCompat.getActionView(menuItem);
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(this);
final MenuItem contadorItem = menu.findItem(R.id.alimentos_basket);
contadorItem.setIcon(buildCounterDrawable(contadorAlimentos, R.drawable.ic_food_variant_white_36dp));
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
In my layout I only have the toolbar, not the icons inside.
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
Has anyone knows how to achieve what I'm looking for..
Thank you!
Use ifRoom|collapseActionView
for the attribute showAsAction
<item
android:id="@+id/action_search"
android:title="search"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_search"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView"/>
