I have a recyclerview with four grid elements (2*2) that work like a menu. However, when i click on them no ripple effect is shown. It just takes me to the next activity without any visual confirmation that the view was pressed. Can anyone help?
MainActivity
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements MainMenuAdapter.OnItemClickListener {
Toolbar toolbar;
private static List<ViewModel> tileItems = new ArrayList<>();
static {
tileItems.add(new ViewModel("Activity", "#3F51B5", R.drawable.activity));
tileItems.add(new ViewModel("Profile", "#E91E63", R.drawable.profile));
tileItems.add(new ViewModel("Training", "#FF5722", R.drawable.training));
tileItems.add(new ViewModel("Diet", "#4CAF50", R.drawable.diet));
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new GridLayoutManager(this, 2));
MainAdapter adapter = new MainAdapter(tileItems, MainActivity.this);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.setOnItemClickListener(this);
// Toolbar
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
this.moveTaskToBack(true);
// this.finishAffinity();
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override public void onItemClick(View view, ViewModel viewModel) {
}
}
MainAdapter
public class MainAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MainMenuAdapter.ViewHolder> implements View.OnClickListener {
private List<ViewModel> items;
private OnItemClickListener onItemClickListener;
private Context context;
// Adapter constructor
public MainAdapter(List<ViewModel> items, Context context) {
this.items = items;
this.context = context;
}
public void setOnItemClickListener(OnItemClickListener onItemClickListener) {
this.onItemClickListener = onItemClickListener;
}
@Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.main_item, parent, false);
return new ViewHolder(v);
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
final ViewModel dataItem = items.get(position);
viewHolder.colorBlock.setBackgroundColor(dataItem.getColor());
viewHolder.menuName.setText(dataItem.getName());
viewHolder.menuIcon.setImageResource(dataItem.getImage());
viewHolder.itemView.setTag(dataItem);
if (dataItem.getActivity() != null) {
viewHolder.colorBlock.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent i = new Intent(context, dataItem.getActivity());
context.startActivity(i);
}
});
}
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return items.size();
}
@Override public void onClick(final View v) {
// Give some time to the ripple to finish the effect
if (onItemClickListener != null) {
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override public void run() {
onItemClickListener.onItemClick(v, (ViewModel) v.getTag());
}
}, 200);
}
}
/** This is our ViewHolder class */
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

Adapter and ViewHolder For RecyclerView . This Layout defines the layout for Items of RecyclerView . Here In this example we have two TextView inside LinearLayout . To Have Ripple Effect Add android:background="? android:attr/selectableItemBackground" property or attribute to item layout.
Ripple touch effect was introduced with material design in Android 5.0 (API level 21). Touch feedback in material design provides an instantaneous visual confirmation at the point of contact when users interact fwith UI elements.
The Ripple effect will happen (@Budius is wrong in his comment) if you set the background of main_item.xml to ?android:selectableItemBackground
or ?selectableItemBackground
. I found references to the second one. However, AndroidStudio warned that it was a private in com.android.support:design. My app crashed when trying to use that private version. I guessed at the first one with the "android:" prefix, and voila, it works.
Perhaps you're setting android:foreground
by accident? I tried that out but saw nothing happen to my RecyclerView items.
Your updated RelativeLayout would be:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:foreground="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:background="?android:selectableItemBackground">
I've also seen android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
work to initiate the ripple. I'll also mention that the selectableItemBackground does not need to be on the root element of the main_item.xml. I'm using a background color in the root item, then setting selectableItemBackground on a nested ViewGroup.
My answer comes from a frame of reference NOT using the material design appcompat. I suspect there is a difference if you are using the material design appcompat support library.
