Dialog Fragment with Scroll view - doesn't scroll | Android studio Project

Last updated Jan 05, 2023

Sometimes Android projects require to show ScrollView inside a dialog. This ScrollView contains different widgets like Buttons, TextView, and many more widgets.

Here we are showing the Dialog with DialogFragment class.

We will cover

  • Show DialogFragement
  • Show Full-Screen Dialog
  • Handle Back Button Event for Fragment
  • Handle scroll view doesn't scroll issue

 

Let's get started

Step 1: Create an Android project with Android studio.

step 2: Create a class and extends it with DialogFragment class

public class FragmentDialogEx extends DialogFragment {


    public FragmentDialogEx() {
        // Required empty public constructor
    }

    public static FragmentDialogEx newInstance() {
        return  new FragmentDialogEx();
    }


    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_dialog_fragment, container, false);

        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityCreated(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);


    }

    @Override
    public void onDismiss(DialogInterface dialog) {
        super.onDismiss(dialog);

    }


}

 

Show DialogFragement

Now to show DialogFragment we need to use create the DialogFragment instance and apply the show() method.

FragmentDialogEx doubtFilterFragmentDialog =
        FragmentDialogEx.newInstance();
        doubtFilterFragmentDialog.show(getSupportFragmentManager(),
                "Show Filters");

 

Show Full-Screen Dialog

To show Dialog in the full-screen mode we need to add LayoutParams to the Dialog window

dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
dialog.setContentView(root);
dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.WHITE));
dialog.getWindow().setLayout(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);

 

Handle Back Button Event for Fragment

When the Dialog is Showing on the same screen and we want to dismiss dialog on back button pressed instead of finish the activity we need to override DialogFragment onBackPressed() method

 

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(getActivity(),getTheme()){
    @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {

        dismiss();
    }
};

 

Handle scroll view doesn't scroll issue

Some time Fragment dialog with scroll view doesn't scroll 

to resolve this issue we need to do  the same thing as with activities by adjusting windowSoftInputMode in the dialog theme

We should set a custom theme for our fragment dialog by inheriting the current android dialog and adding the windowSoftInputMode option

<style name="DialogFragmentStyle" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">  
     <item name="android:windowSoftInputMode">stateHidden|adjustResize</item>  
 </style>  

 

Create dialog with 

 Dialog dialog = new Dialog(getActivity(), R.style.DialogFragmentStyle);

FragmentDialog Complete Example 

MainActivity

package com.example.dialogfragment;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


    }

    public void showDialog(View view) {
        FragmentDialogEx doubtFilterFragmentDialog =
                FragmentDialogEx.newInstance(false);
        doubtFilterFragmentDialog.show(getSupportFragmentManager(),
                "Show Dialog");
    }

    public void showDialogFull(View view) {
        FragmentDialogEx doubtFilterFragmentDialog =
                FragmentDialogEx.newInstance(true);
        doubtFilterFragmentDialog.show(getSupportFragmentManager(),
                "Show Dialog Full Screen");
    }
}

public class FragmentDialogEx extends DialogFragment {

    public FragmentDialogEx() {
        // Required empty public constructor
    }

    public static FragmentDialogEx newInstance(boolean isFulls) {
       isFull=isFulls;
        return  new FragmentDialogEx();
    }


    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_dialog_fragment, container, false);
        ImageView _back_filter=view.findViewById(R.id._back_filter);
        _back_filter.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                dismiss();
            }
        });
        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {


        // creating the fullscreen dialog
        final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(getActivity(),getTheme()){
            @Override
            public void onBackPressed() {

                dismiss();
            }
        };
        if(isFull) {
            // the content
            final RelativeLayout root = new RelativeLayout(getActivity());
            root.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));

            dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
            dialog.setContentView(root);
            dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.WHITE));
            dialog.getWindow().setLayout(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
        }
        return dialog;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityCreated(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);


    }

    @Override
    public void onDismiss(DialogInterface dialog) {
        super.onDismiss(dialog);

    }
