Quick Action in Android

Quick Action - Dialog like Twitter

Introduction

The key is a little unknown class in the android.widget namespace. PopupWindow is the key. It allows you to display any arbitrary view on the screen.

It does most of the work for you it just needs a little bit of massaging to have it do exactly what you want.

For the Popdown menu look it's really just a matter of having the correct animation set. You can look at the Animation.PopDownMenu in the styles.xml

to see how it's done.

The QuickAction look is only slightly more complicated. It needs two animations, one for when it pops out of the top of a view, and one for when it pops down bellow the view. Then it's just a matter of computing where it should display. You can see that in BetterPopupWindow#showLikeQuickAction.

I have create QuickActionExample, attached with this article.

How to use

ActionItem addAction = new ActionItem();

addAction.setTitle("Add");

addAction.setIcon(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_add));

//Accept action item

ActionItem accAction = new ActionItem();

accAction.setTitle("Accept");

accAction.setIcon(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_accept));

//Upload action item

ActionItem upAction = new ActionItem();

upAction.setTitle("Upload");

upAction.setIcon(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_up));

Create quickaction instance and setup listener

final QuickAction mQuickAction  = new QuickAction(this);

mQuickAction.addActionItem(addAction);

mQuickAction.addActionItem(accAction);

mQuickAction.addActionItem(upAction);

//setup the action item click listener

mQuickAction.setOnActionItemClickListener(new QuickAction.OnActionItemClickListener() {

    @Override

        public void onItemClick(int pos) {

        if (pos == 0) { //Add item selected

           Toast.makeText(Example1Activity.this, "Add item selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        } else if (pos == 1) { //Accept item selected

           Toast.makeText(Example1Activity.this, "Accept item selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        } else if (pos == 2) { //Upload item selected

           Toast.makeText(Example1Activity.this, "Upload items selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        }

    }

});

Show dialog

btn1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override

public void onClick(View v) {

    mQuickAction.show(v);

}

});
