Toolbar Overlapping Layout

Question

My layout is being overlapped by the Toolbar. I have to include a 56dp padding to push it down below the toolbar, which makes it awkward to work with (and likely also means I can't use AlignParentTop). The fragment screen (activity_login.xml) is pretty much straight up stock Google-provided code.

(Without Padding)

activity_login.xml

Answer 1

Put appbar code and main content code in LinearLayout with vertical orientation. That solved problem for me. Here is my code

<?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=".MainActivity">


<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">
    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        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.design.widget.AppBarLayout>


    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:fadeScrollbars="true"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
    <android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
        android:id="@+id/fab"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom|end"
        android:layout_margin="@dimen/fab_margin"
        android:src="@android:drawable/ic_dialog_email"/>

</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Answer 2

This is very straight forward and easy. Just follow what I tried to say below.

You replace any View by using:

**

getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                .replace(R.id.blankFragment, new SettingsFragment())
                .commit();

** //Here, blackFragment is id of FrameLayout View. You replace FrameLayout View with Fragment's Layout. Note: It should be FrameLayout or FrameLayout's derivatives Layout.

My whole code is:

1) SettingsActivity.java

**

public class SettingsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_fragment);
        Toolbar mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar2);
        mToolbar.setTitle("Settings");
////        remove the left margin from the logo
        mToolbar.setPadding(2, 0, 0, 0);//for tab otherwise give space in tab
        mToolbar.setContentInsetsAbsolute(0, 0);
        setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
        // Display the fragment as the main content
        getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                .replace(R.id.blankFragment, new SettingsFragment())
                .commit();
    }
}

**

2) activity_fragment.xml

**

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    android:orientation="horizontal">
    <!--scroll|snap-->
    <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar2"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@color/statusbar"
        android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
        app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar" />
    <FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/blankFragment"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:layout_gravity="top"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        android:orientation="horizontal" />
</FrameLayout>

** You can see my Screen after I replaced FrameLayout's View with Fragment's View
