Description
Use FloatingMenuBuilder to configure and create a floating menu in your app. You can customize any parameter you want or leave it with default values. Example use case: create a menu, assign an open/close button, specify a container and provide a menu resource, open and close animations.
Building up a menu
Use setMenuResId(int) method to provide menu resource. Menu builder uses this resource to inflate menu content dynamically.
Sample code:
FloatingMenuBuilder menuBuilder = new FloatingMenuBuilder(this)
.setOpenCloseButton(R.id.quick_menu_button)
.setMenuContainer(R.id.quick_menu_container)
.setMenuResId(R.menu.navigation_toolbar)
.setOpenAnimation(R.anim.open_scale_from_bottom)
.setCloseAnimation(R.anim.close_scale_to_bottom);
FloatingMenuController floatingMenuController = menuBuilder.build();
Menu resources
Menu resource can be either hierarchical or a flat one. Hierarchical menu means that you can combine menu items into groups and specify separate layouts for groups and items inside groups. You can also use group titles inside a group layout. HierarchicalContainerMenuLayoutManager is responsible for laying out inflated menu items using groups or single items layouts. Both MenuLayoutManager and layout resources for HierarchicalContainerMenuLayoutManager implementation are fully customizable.
Hierarchical menu resource example:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:title="@string/menu_group_1_title" >
<menu>
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_1"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_1"
android:title="@string/menu_item_1_title" />
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_2"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_2"
android:title="@string/menu_item_2_title" />
</menu>
</item>
<item android:title="@string/menu_group_2_title" >
<menu>
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_3"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_3"
android:title="@string/menu_item_3_title" />
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_4"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_4"
android:title="@string/menu_item_4_title" />
</menu>
</item>
</menu>
Flat menu layout does not have any sub menus. FlatMenuLayoutManager manages layout of a flat menu. You can specify a layout to be used by FlatMenuLayoutManager through a constructor argument.
Flat menu resource example:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_1"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_1"
android:title="@string/menu_item_1_title" />
<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_2"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_2"
android:title="@string/menu_item_2_title" />
</menu>
Changing menu states
build() method returns a FloatingMenuController instance. You can use it to open/close menu programmatically by calling open(), close(), toggle(), openAnimated(), closeAnimated(), toggleAnimated() methods.
Processing menu events
Menu item clicks are dispatched to the current activity's onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem) method. You should process them the same way you process event from an Action Bar, for example:
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.menu_item_1:
// ... some processing here...
return true;
case R.id.menu_item_2:
// ... some processing here...
return true;
case R.id.menu_item_3:
// ... some processing here...
return true;
case R.id.menu_item_4:
// ... some processing here...
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
