Android material TabLayout TabItem doesn't show text

Android material TabLayout TabItem doesn't show text - java

I want to set up a TabLayout. When I add TabItems inside of XML or programatically, they occupy space and can be clicked, yet their text is not displayed. When I access their text programatically inside of OnTabSelectedListener via tab.getText(), it's there.
The same happened, when I wanted to use the pager.
I know, that
TabItem is not actually added to TabLayout, it is just a dummy which
allows setting of a tab items's text, icon and custom layout
but i don't know how to show its text on the screen.
AndroidStudio's design shows the layout as intended.
I write my app in Java.
.xml:
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_tabLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorSurfaceElevation1dp"
app:tabMode="fixed"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_dayTabItem"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Day"/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_myExercisesTabItem"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="My Exercises"/>
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabItem
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_exerciseTabItem"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Exercises"/>
</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>

please help material is driving me crazy

This can be solve programmatically
Step 1 Create FragmentStateAdapter adapter class
public class TabAdapter extends FragmentStateAdapter {
public TabAdapter(#NonNull FragmentActivity fragmentActivity) {
super(fragmentActivity);
}
#NonNull
#Override
public Fragment createFragment(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0:
return new DayFragment();
case 1:
return new MyExerciseFragment();
default:
return new ExerciseFragment();
}
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return 3;
}
}
Step 2 Create a method in your activity or fragment class to set tabs using TabLayoutMediator and call the method in onCreate method
void setupTabLayout() {
ViewPager2 viewPager = binding.exerciseMenuViewPager;
viewPager.setAdapter(tabAdapter);
TabLayout tabLayout = binding.exerciseMenuTabLayout;
new TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager, (tab, position) -> {
switch (position) {
case 0:
tab.setText("Day");
break;
case 1:
tab.setText("My Exercise");
break;
default:
tab.setText("Exercise");
}
}).attach();
}
This is how your activity class will look like
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private ActivityMainBinding binding;
private TabAdapter tabAdapter;
#Override
protected void onCreate(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
binding = ActivityMainBinding.inflate(getLayoutInflater());
setContentView(binding.getRoot());
tabAdapter = new TabAdapter(this);
setupTabLayout();
}
void setupTabLayout() {}
}
NOTE: To use ViewBinding add this code to your app level build.gradle file.
android{
...
buildFeatures {
viewBinding true
}
...
}
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout 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"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_tabLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_viewPager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/exercise_menu_tabLayout" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
Final results
PS: You need to create these fragment classes DayFragment.java, MyExerciseFragment.javaand ExerciseFragment.

Because I didn't want to use pager with fragments, and I couldn't get TabLayout to work, I made my own TabLayout.
I used LinearLayout with TextViews and just made a drawable with a line at the bottom and appropriate backgroundColor. It works flawlessly, and the only thing missing is the animation for line movement.
After each click, look of the previously selected textView is restored, and the new one is changed.
<TextView
android:id="#+id/exercise_menu_dayTextView"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Day"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textSize="18sp"

Android background color of button change automatically

I have never seen a bug as weird as that before, I'm linking a viewpager with a tablayout, inside the viewpager there are three fragments.
Two of the fragments (let's say fragment 1 & 3) have a button inside them and their colours are both set to "pink". When I first load the app, it shows fragment 1, the button is pink at that moment, however, whenever I switch to fragment 3, the background color of the button is changed to "white" and other attributes of the button stay the same.
This won't happen if I switch to fragment 2. However, if I switch to fragment 3 once, both fragments 1 & 3's button have white background for the rest of the lifetime.
Can someone tell me what's happening here or what could cause this? I'm not changing the style of the buttons in Java files at all.

After adding the following line in both of the xml files, the button appears normally, not sure why though, can someone explain what happened? (is that something related to the theme I'm using?)
android:backgroundTint="#color/colorPrimary"
and my theme is
<style name="Theme.PepperChat" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<!-- Primary brand color. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">#color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
if I change the parent to Theme.MaterialComponent.Light.NoActionBar, then the app works fine without adding backgroundTint.
Again, would like some explanations on why this happens.

Adding ripple effect for View in onClick

Hello I am trying to add a ripple effect onClick method for View, but this one no working. All my items having an ID, but I don't know how to call it
Here is a code.
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
int[] attrs = new int[]{R.attr.selectableItemBackground};
TypedArray typedArray = getActivity().obtainStyledAttributes(attrs);
int backgroundResource = typedArray.getResourceId(0, 0);
v.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
switch (v.getId()) {
case ACTION_PLAY_ID:
Log.d(MainActivity.TAG, getString(R.string.detail_action_play));
v.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), PlayerActivity.class);
intent.putExtra(Video.VIDEO_TAG, videoModel);
startActivity(intent);
break;
case ACTION_BOOKMARK_ID:
if (bookmarked) {
v.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
deleteFromBookmarks();
((ImageView) v).setImageDrawable(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.star_outline));
} else {
v.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
addToBookmarks();
((ImageView) v).setImageDrawable(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.star));
}
break;
case ACTION_REMINDER_ID:
if (!isReminderSet) {
createReminderDialog((ImageView) v);
} else {
cancelReminder(liveTvProgram.getProgramId());
((ImageView) v).setImageDrawable(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.alarm));
}
break;
}
}
For Lubomir
i have something like this but not working too:
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle
savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_detail, container, false);
ButterKnife.bind(this, view);
View myView = view.findViewById(R.id.actions_container);
int[] attrs = new int[]{R.attr.selectableItemBackground};
TypedArray typedArray = getActivity().obtainStyledAttributes(attrs);
int backgroundResource = typedArray.getResourceId(0, 0);
myView.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
loadImage();
init();
return view;
}

Also my xml ripple effect file is like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#color/dark_primary_color">
<item>
<color android:color="#color/dark_primary_color" />
</item>
<item android:id="#android:id/mask">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="?android:colorAccent" />
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>

Clickable Views
In general, ripple effect for regular buttons will work by default in API 21 and for other touchable views, it can be achieved by specifying
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
In code:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.your_layout);
View myView = findViewById(R.id.myView);
int[] attrs = new int[]{R.attr.selectableItemBackground};
TypedArray typedArray = getActivity().obtainStyledAttributes(attrs);
int backgroundResource = typedArray.getResourceId(0, 0);
myView.setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource);
}

As stated in Lubomir Babev's answer, adding android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground" does the trick.
However, if your view already has a background, you can use the same on the android:foreground attribute instead:
android:background="#color/anyColor"
android:foreground="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:foreground is only supported by API 23+ though.

create ripple background
view_background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#color/blue" >
<item android:drawable="#drawable/view_normal">
</item>
</ripple>
view_noraml.xml //this is how you view appears in normal
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners
android:radius="#dimen/button_corner"/>
<solid
android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
<stroke
android:width="0.5dp"
android:color="#color/white"/>
</shape>
now set the view_background to your view
example
<FrameLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:foreground="#drawable/view_background"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/grid_item_imageView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
/>
</FrameLayout>

I know this is a pretty old thread but just in case the above answers didn't work, I'd recommend you to try the below code as it worked for me:
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
The key thing to notice are the clickable and focusable.

The solution for this is simple easy in my side.
Here is ripple effect:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#BFB3F7">
<item android:id="#android:id/mask">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#color/button_background_color" />
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>
and next on the class i need to search function
setBackground
Then i need declare a drawable item to it. something like this:
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus) {
v.setBackground(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.ripple_effect_for_buttons));
scrollContainer(false);
} else {
v.setBackground(null);
if (recommendation.getFocusedChild() != null) {
scrollContainer(true);
}
}
}
And YUPII its working

You can add:
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="true"
android:background="#drawable/ripple"/>

In Kotlin it could be easily done with an extension functions.
fun TypedArray.use(block: TypedArray.() -> Unit) {
try {
block()
} finally {
this.recycle()
}
}
fun Context.getStyledAttributes(#StyleableRes attrs: IntArray, block: TypedArray.() -> Unit) =
this.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs).use(block)
fun View.setClickableRipple() {
val attrs = intArrayOf(R.attr.selectableItemBackground)
context.getStyledAttributes(attrs) {
val backgroundResource = getResourceId(0, 0)
setBackgroundResource(backgroundResource)
}
}

ViewPagerIndicator not showing up

I am using JakeWharton's ViewPagerIndicator on my landscape app but I think I am messing up with the layout. The ViewPagerIndicator does not show up. I just started learning Android Development so any help is appreciated!
My guess is that it has to do with my Linear Layout...should it be relative? Am I covering up the pager indicator? I know that if I move the indicator code above the view pager, I see the indicator but everything else is white. My fragment's layout is a relative layout with height and width matching the parent.
My app is an activity with fragments.
Edit: I set the indicator height to wrap content but now it floats on the top of the screen. How do I make it go down?
My_Activity.java
public class MyActivity extends FragmentActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
ViewPager pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewPager);
MyPagerAdapter mAdapter = new MyPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
pager.setAdapter(mAdapter);
CirclePageIndicator circleInd = (CirclePageIndicator) findViewById(R.id.circles);
circleInd.setViewPager(pager);
circleInd.setStrokeColor(0xAA000000);
//circleInd.setCurrentItem(mAdapter.getCount() - 1);
}
private class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int pos) {
switch (pos) {
case 0: return FirstFragment.newInstance("First");
case 1: return SecondFragment.newInstance("Second");
default: return FirstFragment.newInstance("First");
}
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 2;
}
}
}
and the XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

Set your activity xml like this:

android:id="#+id/circles"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:padding="10dp" />
</LinearLayout>

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No view found for id?

I am trying to add a fragment from an activity using the add(R.id.containerId, fragment);. However the log gives the java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No view found for id error.
The fragment layout contains an id in the root element. I know that placing the container id in a child element is supposed to fix things, but this has made no difference for me.
Here is the root element in the fragment layout xml file:

Here is the onCreate() method in my activity:
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.fragment_container, fragment);
currentFragment = R.id.fragment_container;
transaction.commit();
Here is the onCreateView() method in the fragment:
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
Here is the entire activity code (the naming and ids are different because I changed them in the snippets above, imports statements are also missing for brevity):

Stuff that I have checked:
Fragment layout is correct in the onCreateView() method in the fragment.
Fragment layout container id in child of the fragment xml file.

How do I add a colour to the top of my android cardviews, like in image?

I've wrote a small application, which shows several android cards. But I'd like to be able to set a colour and title to the top of the card like in the image below, so far I haven't found any information online how to do this. So some help would be fantastic :-)
(My code so far does not accomplish the above, so far my code just produces regular all white cardviews)
My code so far is below:
CardAdapter.java
public class CardAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<CardAdapter.ViewHolder> {
public List<TTItem> posts = new ArrayList<>();
public void addItems(List<TTItem> items) {
posts.addAll(items);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
public void clear() {
posts.clear();
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
#Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
Context context = parent.getContext();
View view = View.inflate(context, R.layout.item_cardview, null);
return new ViewHolder(view);
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
holder.mTextView.setText(posts.get(position).title);
Picasso.with(holder.mImageView.getContext()).load(posts.get(position).images[0]).into(holder.mImageView);
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return posts.size();
}
static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView mTextView;
public ImageView mImageView;
public ViewHolder(View view) {
super(view);
mTextView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.textview);
mImageView = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imageView);
}
}
}

#InjectView(R.id.refreshContainer)
SwipeRefreshLayout refreshLayout;
private LinearLayoutManager mLayoutManager;
private CardAdapter mAdapter;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ButterKnife.inject(this);
mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
refreshLayout.setOnRefreshListener(this);
TypedValue tv = new TypedValue();
int actionBarHeight = 0;
if (getTheme().resolveAttribute(R.attr.actionBarSize, tv, true)) {
actionBarHeight = TypedValue.complexToDimensionPixelSize(tv.data, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
}
refreshLayout.setProgressViewEndTarget(true, actionBarHeight);
mAdapter = new CardAdapter();
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
// use a linear layout manager
mLayoutManager = new GridLayoutManager(this, 1);
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#Override
public void onRefresh() {
mAdapter.clear();
Handler handler = new Handler();
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
refreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
}
}, 2500);

The only change I've made from yours is, card_view:cardCornerRadius="8dp"> and removed the imageview(as no longer needed)

I have replaced your mapFragment (presumably) with imageView to reduce complications.
Update: As the question now addresses the infamous "round corner" problem, this is actually by design. Yes, it is a big flaw. But the solution (as given in docs Here) would be to use card_view:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false" attribute (which I don't think does anything good because it just makes card square again).
See these questions for a good reference to this problem:
Appcompat CardView and Picasso no rounded Corners
Make ImageView fit width of CardView

From my understanding, you can change the colour of a CardView in it's entirety but not parts of it. I'm not sure how that would even work.
What you can do, is nest a TextView with the title within the CardView, then colour the background of the TextView to the colour you would like. Use appropriate margins/padding for a uniform look. Add a background to your TextView and see what you get.
Your TextView is already using the match_parent parameter on your android:layout_width="" so you would only need to add the background like so:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#FF4444"/>
To change the entire CardView colour like I mentioned at the beginning you can do it the same way or programmatically like so:
cardView.setCardBackgroundColor(COLOURHERE);
