Based on this answer I tried to make a solution for my Use Case. Instead of using a Collapsing toolbar I'm using a regular one but with a TabLayout. However, for the TabLayout I need to use a ViewPager and I have no idea where to place it in order to avoid trouble with the FrameLayout. ViewPager was in my Host Fragment and when its layout replaced the FrameLayout, the content went below the Toolbar and TabLayout for some reason...

I tried putting it below that line

<include layout="@layout/content_main" />

in the app_bar_main.xml but it messed up my UI.

The real question is, if I need a FrameLayout for my fragments and I need a ViewPager for my TabLayout, how do I implement a solution?

You can see that I moved the view a bit so that the Toolbar hides. This way it's visible the ViewPager takes up space even below the Toolbar (when it's visible)

Screenshot

Current attempt - appbar_content (Toolbar is just a Toolbar in separate layout):

<?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"
tools:context=".MainActivity">

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:id="@+id/appBarLayout"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <include layout="@layout/toolbar" />

    <android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
        android:visibility="visible"
        android:id="@+id/tabLayout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:background="@color/teal"
        app:tabGravity="fill"
        app:tabIndicatorColor="@color/purple800"
        app:tabIndicatorHeight="4dp"
        app:itemIconTint="@color/tabicons"
        app:tabMode="fixed"
        app:tabSelectedTextColor="@color/tealfifty"
        app:tabTextAppearance="@style/TabCapsFalse"
        app:tabTextColor="@color/iron" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>


<include layout="@layout/content_main" />



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

content_main (removed NestedScrollView as it screwed up everything, put my whole fragment view like in a small frame(maybe 50x50 size) in the middle of the screen)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/content_main_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />

My DrawerLayout:

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/drawer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">

<include
    layout="@layout/appbar_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

    <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        android:id="@+id/nvView"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:background="@color/tealfifty"
        app:itemBackground="@drawable/drawer_item"
        app:itemTextColor="@color/drawer_item"
        app:itemIconTint="@color/drawer_item"
        app:headerLayout="@layout/drawer_header"
        app:menu="@menu/navigation_view_items" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

After a lot of struggling, I found that putting a NestedScrollView inside my FrameLayout and assigning a layout_behaviour to my FrameLayout made the Scroll View inherit it and now it all works like a charm!

This is my DrawerLayout:

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/drawer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">

<include
    layout="@layout/appbar_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

    <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        android:id="@+id/nvView"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:background="@color/tealfifty"
        app:itemBackground="@drawable/drawer_item"
        app:itemTextColor="@color/drawer_item"
        app:itemIconTint="@color/drawer_item"
        app:headerLayout="@layout/drawer_header"
        app:menu="@menu/navigation_view_items" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

appbar_content.xml

<?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"
tools:context=".MainActivity">

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:id="@+id/appBarLayout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <include layout="@layout/toolbar" />

    <android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
        android:visibility="visible"
        android:id="@+id/tabLayout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:background="@color/teal"
        app:tabGravity="fill"
        app:tabIndicatorColor="@color/purple800"
        app:tabIndicatorHeight="4dp"
        app:itemIconTint="@color/tabicons"
        app:tabMode="fixed"
        app:tabSelectedTextColor="@color/tealfifty"
        app:tabTextAppearance="@style/TabCapsFalse"
        app:tabTextColor="@color/iron" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>



<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/content_main_frame"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    tools:showIn="@layout/appbar_content"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
    <android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
        android:id="@+id/scroll_content"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</FrameLayout>


<android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
    android:id="@+id/fab"
    android:visibility="invisible"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_margin="16dp"
    android:clickable="true"
    android:src="@drawable/addico"
    app:layout_anchor="@id/content_main_frame"
    app:layout_anchorGravity="bottom|end" />

Put your tab layout and view pager inside a linear layout with orientation vertical. So your linear layout will be the child of Coordinator layout. THis will make sure your view pager starts below tablayout.

  • My TabLayout is a part of an AppBarLayout so that it moves along with the Toolbar when it collapses. My ViewPager is not even in the same layout. TabLayout and Toolbar are in a DrawerLayout so I don't think what you suggested can be implemented? Did you see the answer I said I followed as a solution? – iBobb Feb 24 '16 at 03:46
