How to create a Custom Dialog box in android?

Question

I want to create a custom dialog box like below

enter image description here

I have tried the following things.

I created a subclass of AlertDialog.Builder and used a custom Title and Custom Content View and used that but the result was not as expected.
Another attempt was to subclass DialogFragment and customize the dialog inside onCreateDialog that but result was not as expected.
Then I tried using a plain Dialog class. The result was not as expected.

In all three cases, the problem is when I overlook the title view the size of the dialog is not as expected and when I use Title view the result is there is a thick border around the content view (which really looks bad). Now I have two questions in my mind...

How can I achieve that? As I have already tried so many things, a direct answer will be more appreciated.
What is the best way to show an error or alert dialog in an android app?

EDIT Android Developer Documentation recommends that we should use either DialogFragments or Dialogs for showing Error / Alert Messages to the user. However at one point they say ...

Tip: If you want a custom dialog, you can instead display an Activity as a dialog instead of using the Dialog APIs. Simply create an activity and set its theme to Theme.Holo.Dialog in the manifest element.

What is the meaning of that? Isn't it too much to use an Activity just for showing an error message???

just because the second part of the question is yet not answered... What is the best way to show error/ Alert messages to the user.. — Amit, Nov 23 '12 at 06:59

Use DialogFragment it is way better than the accepted answer — Benoit, Apr 23 '13 at 19:32
@Amit As far as I can judge by the picture the dialog you wish to achieve looks like it contains the same elements as standard AlertDialog (header, body, buttonbar). So I guess your look could be achieved by styling alone. — Anderson, Jul 30 '14 at 07:13

Here I have created a simple Dialog, like:

Dialog Box

custom_dialog.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="80dp"
    android:background="#3E80B4"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txt_dia"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:text="Do you realy want to exit ?"
        android:textColor="@android:color/white"
        android:textSize="15dp"
        android:textStyle="bold"/>
    

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:background="#3E80B4"
        android:orientation="horizontal" >

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_yes"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="30dp"
            android:background="@android:color/white"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:text="Yes"
            android:textColor="#5DBCD2"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_no"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="30dp"
            android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
            android:background="@android:color/white"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:text="No"
            android:textColor="#5DBCD2"
            android:textStyle="bold" />
    </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

You have to extends Dialog and implements OnClickListener

public class CustomDialogClass extends Dialog implements
    android.view.View.OnClickListener {

  public Activity c;
  public Dialog d;
  public Button yes, no;

  public CustomDialogClass(Activity a) {
    super(a);
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    this.c = a;
  }

  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialog);
    yes = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_yes);
    no = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_no);
    yes.setOnClickListener(this);
    no.setOnClickListener(this);

  }

  @Override
  public void onClick(View v) {
    switch (v.getId()) {
    case R.id.btn_yes:
      c.finish();
      break;
    case R.id.btn_no:
      dismiss();
      break;
    default:
      break;
    }
    dismiss();
  }
}

How to Call Dialog ?

R.id.TXT_Exit:
CustomDialogClass cdd=new CustomDialogClass(Values.this);
cdd.show();

Updates

After a long time one of my friends asked me to make a curved shape dialog with a transparent background. So, Here I have implemented it.

enter image description here

To Make a curved shape you need to create a separate curve_shap.XML as below,

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <solid android:color="#000000" />

    <stroke
        android:width="2dp"
        android:color="#ffffff" />

    <corners
        android:bottomLeftRadius="20dp"
        android:bottomRightRadius="20dp"
        android:topLeftRadius="20dp"
        android:topRightRadius="20dp" />

</shape>

Now, add this curve_shap.XML in your main view Layout. In my case I have used LinearLayout

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="80dp"
        android:background="@drawable/curve_shap"
        android:orientation="vertical" >
...
</LinearLayout>

How to call this ?

CustomDialogClass cdd = new CustomDialogClass(MainActivity.this);
cdd.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));
cdd.show();

I hope that works for you.

This code fit for my app. Only i want to ask, How to intent to another activity? when click on dialog button??? — Manwal, Apr 01 '14 at 10:35
you can , directly call intent , and don't forget to dismiss() before call startActivity () . try with on "yes" click , like startActivity(new Intent(activity, new_activity.class)); — Chintan Khetiya, Apr 01 '14 at 12:09
@chintankhetiya and if u want to pass data from dialog to activity? how will we do it? — Alvin, Sep 17 '14 at 11:26
@Alvin : you can pass data from dialog to activity using interface listner — Anand Savjani, Feb 29 '16 at 06:39
how can i set this dialog cancelable(false), from the CustomDialog class itself — Blue_Alien, Jul 27 '17 at 09:29
your case for R.id.btn_no in the switch is redundant because you dismiss the dialog anyway. you could just replace the whole switch with a simple if to increase readability and remove unnecessary code. — dedda1994, Apr 05 '18 at 14:40
In an MVVM situation, this dialog would be "held" in a service class, and being called on per singleton from the VM? — MwBakker, Sep 20 '18 at 09:24
Nice, just I want to mention the variable `public Dialog d;` has no effect in your code. — Ibrahim.H, Feb 21 '19 at 21:42
how to use this custom dialog for many activity? how to set click handler for dialog btn in other activities? — roghayeh hosseini, May 21 '19 at 10:05
I would not have the class implement OnClickListener. From a software engineering perspective, an instance of the class could be used by on other View, which does not make sense. Instead, the class should have a field that acts as the OnClickListener or even a lambda expression. — the4960, Aug 08 '19 at 17:55

This is an example dialog, create with xml.

enter image description here

the next code xml is just an example, the design or view is implemented here:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#ffffffff">

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="120dp"
    android:id="@+id/a"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:background="#DA5F6A"
    android:src="@drawable/dialog_cross"
    android:scaleType="fitCenter" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="TEXTO"
    android:id="@+id/text_dialog"
    android:layout_below="@+id/a"
    android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="4dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="4dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
    android:textSize="18sp"
    android:textColor="#ff000000"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal" />

<Button
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="30dp"
    android:text="OK"
    android:id="@+id/btn_dialog"
    android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
    android:layout_below="@+id/text_dialog"
    android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
    android:background="@drawable/btn_flat_red_selector"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:textColor="#ffffffff" />

</RelativeLayout>

this lines of code are resources of drawable:

android:src="@drawable/dialog_cross"
android:background="@drawable/btn_flat_red_selector"

you could do a class extends Dialog, also something like this:

public class ViewDialog {

    public void showDialog(Activity activity, String msg){
        final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(activity);
        dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        dialog.setCancelable(false);
        dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog);

        TextView text = (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.text_dialog);
        text.setText(msg);

        Button dialogButton = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_dialog);
        dialogButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                dialog.dismiss();
            }
        });

        dialog.show();

    }
}

finally the form of call, on your Activity for example:

ViewDialog alert = new ViewDialog();
alert.showDialog(getActivity(), "Error de conexión al servidor");

I hope its work for you.

UPDATE

Drawable XML For dialog :

<shape xmlns:android="schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#FFFFFF" /> <gradient android:angle="180" android:endColor="@color/NaranjaOTTAA" android:startColor="@color/FondoActionBar" /> <corners android:bottomLeftRadius="7dp" android:bottomRightRadius="7dp" android:topLeftRadius="7dp" android:topRightRadius="7dp" /> </shape>

Hi Alex, nice share !! can you share with us the btn_flat_red_selector xml style ? Thanks — Gastón Saillén, Oct 10 '18 at 12:34
@GastónSaillén Hi Gastón, I will search it because is old and I don't remember where that code is — Alex Zaraos, Oct 10 '18 at 17:50
dont worry Alex, I already have made one (if you want you can add it to your answer) — Gastón Saillén, Oct 11 '18 at 13:03
you really only need the context to create a Dialog, so even though passing the activity works, you shouldn't increase the scope by making it a necessity — Haroon, Apr 12 '21 at 17:50

Another easy way to do this.

step 1) create a layout with proper id's.

step 2) use the following code wherever you desire.

LayoutInflater factory = LayoutInflater.from(this);
final View deleteDialogView = factory.inflate(R.layout.mylayout, null);
final AlertDialog deleteDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
deleteDialog.setView(deleteDialogView);
deleteDialogView.findViewById(R.id.yes).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {    
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        //your business logic 
        deleteDialog.dismiss();
    }
});
deleteDialogView.findViewById(R.id.no).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {    
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        deleteDialog.dismiss();    
    }
});

deleteDialog.show();

Simple first create a class

 public class ViewDialog {

        public void showDialog(Activity activity, String msg){
            final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(activity);
            dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
            dialog.setCancelable(false);
            dialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialogbox_otp);
            dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(android.graphics.Color.TRANSPARENT));

            TextView text = (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.txt_file_path);
            text.setText(msg);

            Button dialogBtn_cancel = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_cancel);
            dialogBtn_cancel.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
//                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Cancel" ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    dialog.dismiss();
                }
            });

            Button dialogBtn_okay = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_okay);
            dialogBtn_okay.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
//                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Okay" ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    dialog.cancel();
                }
            });

            dialog.show();
        }
    }

then create a custom_dialogbox_otp

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

then in your drawable create beneath xml files.

Add the below theme in values -> style.xml

<style name="Theme_Dialog" parent="android:Theme.Light">
     <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
     <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>

Use this theme in your onCreateDialog method like this:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(FlightBookActivity.this,R.style.Theme_Dialog);

Define your dialog layout including title bar in the xml file and set that xml file like this:

dialog.setContentView(R.layout.your_dialog_layout);

Simplest way to create custom dialog box:

Initialize and show dialog:

 ViewDialog alertDialoge = new ViewDialog();
 alertDialoge.showDialog(getActivity(), "PUT DIALOG TITLE");

Create method:

public class ViewDialog {

  public void showDialog(Activity activity, String msg) {

    final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(activity);
    dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    dialog.setCancelable(false);
    dialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialoge_feedback);

    TextView text = (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.text_dialog_feedback);
    text.setText(msg);

    Button okButton = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_dialog_feedback);
    Button cancleButton = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_dialog_cancle_feedback);
    final EditText edittext_tv = (EditText) dialog.findViewById(R.id.dialoge_alert_text_feedback);

    okButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //Perfome Action
        }
    });
    cancleButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            dialog.dismiss();
        }

I found this as the easiest way for showing custom dialog.

You have layout your_layout.xml

public void showCustomDialog(final Context context) {
    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(context);
    dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_layout, null, false);
    findByIds(view);  /*HERE YOU CAN FIND YOU IDS AND SET TEXTS OR BUTTONS*/
    ((Activity) context).getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE | WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);
    dialog.setContentView(view);
    final Window window = dialog.getWindow();
    window.setLayout(WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
    window.setBackgroundDrawableResource(R.color.colorTransparent);

Create custom alert layout custom_aler_update.xml

Then Copy this code to Activity :

AlertDialog basic_reg;
AlertDialog.Builder builder ;
builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(ct, R.style.AppCompatAlertDialogStyle);
LayoutInflater inflater = ((Activity) ct).getLayoutInflater();
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_aler_update, null);
builder.setView(v);
builder.setCancelable(false);
builder.create();
basic_reg = builder.show();

Copy this code to style :

<style name="AppCompatAlertDialogStyle" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/primaryTextColor</item>
    <item name="android:background">@color/white</item>
</style>

You can try this simple android dialog popup library to cut the cluttered dialog code. It is very simple to use on your activity. after that you can have this code in your activity to show dialog

Pop.on(this).with().title(R.string.title).layout(R.layout.custom_pop).show();

where R.layout.custom_pop is your custom layout the way you want to decorate your dialog.

Full Screen Custom Alert Dialog Class in Kotlin

Create XML file, same as you would an activity

Create AlertDialog custom class

class Your_Class(context:Context) : AlertDialog(context){

 init {
  requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE)
  setCancelable(false)
 }

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
  setContentView(R.layout.your_Layout)
  val window = this.window
  window?.setLayout(WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
                     WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT)

  //continue custom code here
  //call dismiss() to close
 }
}

Call the dialog within the activity

val dialog = Your_Class(this)
//can set some dialog options here
dialog.show()

Note**: If you do not want your dialog to be full screen, delete the following lines

      val window = this.window
      window?.setLayout(WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
                         WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT)

Then edit the layout_width & layout_height of your top layout within your XML file to be either wrap_content or a fixed DP value.

I generally do not recommend using fixed DP as you would likely want your app to be adaptable to multiple screen sizes, however if you keep your size values small enough you should be fine

Simplest way to change the background color and text style is to make custom theme for android alert dialog as below :-

: Just put below code to styles.xml :

    <style name="AlertDialogCustom" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
    <item name="android:textColor">#999999</item>
    <item name="android:windowIsFloating">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
    <item name="android:windowTitleStyle">@null</item>
    <item name="android:typeface">monospace</item>
    <item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">false</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/abc_text_size_medium_material</item>
    <item name="android:background">#80ff00ff</item>
</style>

: Now customization thing is done , now just apply to your alertBuilder object :

    AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this,R.style.AlertDialogCustom);

Hope , this will help you !

It's a class for Alert Dialog so that u can call the class from any activity to reuse the code.

public class MessageOkFragmentDialog extends DialogFragment {
Typeface Lato;
String message = " ";
String title = " ";
int messageID = 0;

public MessageOkFragmentDialog(String message, String title) {
    this.message = message;
    this.title = title;
}


@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());

    LayoutInflater inflater = getActivity().getLayoutInflater();

    View convertview = inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog_message_ok_box, null);


    Constants.overrideFonts(getActivity(), convertview);
    Lato = Typeface
            .createFromAsset(getActivity().getAssets(), "font/Lato-Regular.ttf");


    TextView textmessage = (TextView) convertview
            .findViewById(R.id.textView_dialog);

    TextView textview_dialog_title = (TextView) convertview.findViewById(R.id.textview_dialog_title);

    textmessage.setTypeface(Lato);
    textview_dialog_title.setTypeface(Lato);



    textmessage.setText(message);
    textview_dialog_title.setText(title);



    Button button_ok = (Button) convertview
            .findViewById(R.id.button_dialog);
    button_ok.setTypeface(Lato);

    builder.setView(convertview);
    button_ok.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            dismiss();

        }

Show your custom dialog on your activity:

  public void showDialog(String title, String des, int icon) {

    final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(this);
    dialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialog);
    dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));

    Button cancelBTN = dialog.findViewById(R.id.cancelBTN);
    Button acceptBTN = dialog.findViewById(R.id.acceptBtn);
    TextView tvTitle = dialog.findViewById(R.id.title);
    TextView tvDescription = dialog.findViewById(R.id.description);
    ImageView ivIcon = dialog.findViewById(R.id.icon);

    tvTitle.setText(title);
    tvDescription.setText(des);
    ivIcon.setImageResource(icon);

    cancelBTN.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            dialog.dismiss();
        }
    });

    acceptBTN.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

        }
    });

    dialog.show();
}

Call like this:

showDialog("Title", "Message", R.drawable.warning);

Dialog Fragment is the simplest way of creating a custom Alert Dialog.Follow the above code to create a custom view for your dialog and then implement it using Dialog Fragment. Add the following code to your layout file:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="80dp"
    android:background="#3E80B4"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/txt_dia"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:text="Do you realy want to exit ?"
        android:textColor="@android:color/white"
        android:textSize="15dp"
        android:textStyle="bold" />


    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:background="#3E80B4"
        android:orientation="horizontal">

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_yes"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="30dp"
            android:background="@android:color/white"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:text="Yes"
            android:textColor="#5DBCD2"
            android:textStyle="bold" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_no"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="30dp"

Create alert Dialog layout something like this

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/btn"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:text="Custom Alert Dialog"
        android:layout_height="40dp">
    </Button>
</LinearLayout>

and Add below code on your Activity class

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    LayoutInflater inflate = LayoutInflater.from(this);
    alertView = inflate.inflate(R.layout.your_alert_layout, null);
    Button btn= (Button) alertView.findViewById(R.id.btn);

    showDialog();
  }

 public void showDialog(){
        Dialog alertDialog = new Dialog(RecognizeConceptsActivity.this);
        alertDialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        alertDialog.setContentView(alertView);
        alertDialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));
        alertDialog.show();
    }

I am posting the kotlin code that I am using and it works fine for me. you can also set click listener for dialog buttons.

this is my XML code:

layout_custom_alert_dialog.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

mAlertDialog.kt

class mAlertDialog(context: Context) {

    private val btn_positive : Button
    private val btn_negative : Button
    private val txt_alert_title : TextView
    private val dialog : AlertDialog
    init {
        val view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.layout_custom_alert_dialog,null)

        val dialog_builder = AlertDialog.Builder(context)
        dialog_builder.setView(view)

        btn_negative = view.findViewById(R.id.btn_alert_negative)

        txt_alert_title.text = title
    }
}

interface for click listeners:

onClickListener.kt

interface onClickListener{
    fun onClick(view : View)
}

Sample Usage

val dialog = mAlertDialog(context)
                dialog.setNegativeButtonText("no i dont")
                dialog.setPoitiveButtonText("yes is do")
                dialog.setAlertTitle("do you like this alert dialog?")

                dialog.setPositiveClickListener(object : onClickListener {
                    override fun onClick(view: View) {
                        Toast.makeText(context, "yes", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
                    }
                })

                dialog.setNegativeClickListener(object : onClickListener {
                    override fun onClick(view: View) {
                        Toast.makeText(context, "no", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
                    }
                })

                dialog.show()

I hope, this will help you!

Import custom alert :

LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.dse_location_list_filter, null);
final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(Acitvity_name.this);
dialog.setContentView(view);
dialog.setCancelable(true);
dialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(true);
dialog.show();

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tvTitle"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />


</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

val dialog = Dialog(activity!!)
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.my_dialog_layout)
dialog.tvTitle.text = "Hello World!!"
