How to add FloatingActionButton on maps in xamarin.android - google-maps

I am trying to add custom button for locate me for the maps. I came to know we need to use FloatingActionButton, so I have created as following in my layout.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:fab="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:id="#+id/header">
<include
android:id="#+id/mapToolbar"
layout="#layout/toolbar" />
</RelativeLayout>
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="#array/maptype_arrays" />
<fragment
android.id="#+id/map"
android:tag="maptag"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment" />
<android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
android:id="#+id/fab"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|left"
android:src="#drawable/locateme_icon"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="15dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
</LinearLayout>
But Im not getting button on the screen when run this. Is there anything to add along with this.
Thanks in advance.

I got the FloatingActionButton displayed by changing Linear layout to Frame layout.

Button doesn't show on top of Maps Activity

I'm trying to add a button on top of Map Activity, in the layout.
I just want to show a button over the map layout, but I tried different layouts, Constraint, Relative... and nothing works. I also tried to put the map fragment in XML before and after the button inside a relative layout, and yet it did nothing, it shows only the map.
I resized the map and even removed the map layout, and still the map shows in full screen.

You don't need to say the orientation for constraintLayout. Just make your fragment sizes android:layout_width="match_parent" and
android:layout_height="match_parent" , add button and constraint it to your fragment:

i finally found the problem, i accidentally created 2 similar activities and i was editing the wrong activity, that's why there were no errors. Thanks everybody who tried to help.

Is it possible to pause the auto changing image in view flipper with a touch

Is it possible to pause the auto changing image with a finger touch in view flipper. Here I have given a product 360 view with some images , now I want to give the users a facility to pause and see the image .

when I run the program, it collapses just fine, expected behaviour.
but there seems to be another layout added between the collapsed toolbar and my Swiperefresh layout, it's as tall as the toolbar, but empty and unreactive
Somehow the toolbar is related to this issue as the hight of this phantom layout changes when I change the height of the toolbar
the space im refering to is the one on top of the recyclerView on the bottom.
Amazingly, this was fixed by moving the toolbar below the FrameLayout, when I moved it back up to reproduce the bug, it didn't do it. So I guess the lesson is "Sometimes you just have to move your code around" I guess maybe restarting the computer or shutting down Android Studio could have done the trick as well.

Android transition doesn't care about targetId in transitionSet

I'm confused about how transitionSet is used. This is my definition:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<transitionSet xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:transitionOrdering="sequential">
<slide android:slideEdge="bottom" android:startDelay="0">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/action_save" />
</targets>
</slide>
<slide android:slideEdge="top">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/image_album_background" />
</targets>
</slide>
<slide
android:duration="500"
android:slideEdge="bottom">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/fields_container" />
</targets>
</slide>
</transitionSet>
This way, all views will slide from bottom edge. But if I change the order into this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<transitionSet xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:transitionOrdering="sequential">
<slide android:slideEdge="top">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/image_album_background" />
</targets>
</slide>
<slide android:slideEdge="bottom" android:startDelay="0">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/action_save" />
</targets>
</slide>
<slide
android:duration="500"
android:slideEdge="bottom">
<targets>
<target android:targetId="#id/fields_container" />
</targets>
</slide>
</transitionSet>
Then, all will slide from top edge.
It seems that Android only cares about the first transition.

This is how to open the layout:
String transitionName = "transition_album_cover";
if (AnimationViews.albumCover != null) {
fragmentTx.addSharedElement(AnimationViews.albumCover, transitionName);
}
TransitionInflater inflater = TransitionInflater.from(this);
editorFragment.setEnterTransition(inflater.inflateTransition(R.transition.editor_fragment_enter));
It is tricky to be able to make work all transitions which are child views. Because it depends on ViewGroup (parent view) of that child views.
Quoting from jimulabs:
If the background of a ViewGroup is set (even if it’s android:color/transparent), the transition system will treat the
ViewGroup as a single view and ignore its children. Thus, any
transitions will only run on the ViewGroup, instead of its children
individually; if a transition has its target set to one of the
children only, the transition will not run at all.
Conversely, if a ViewGroup does not have a background (or it’s #null), transitions will run for all its individual children; if a
transition has its target set to the ViewGroup, the transition will
not run at all.
This does NOT happen if you run beginDelayedTransition() in normal cases such as setting the visibility of views in a OnClickListener.
You can also read about this from here on section Transitioning Views & Transition Groups.
However, you should be able to make it work through method ViewGroup#setTransitionGroup(boolean) which i could not make it work. I have tried using this method on parent layout of screen. So i had to stick with javacode for all transitionSet targets which is time consuming.
I just tried this and it works fine for me, so I have to think that it has to do with your specific targets. My guess is that image_album_background contains both action_save and fields_container. If so, those two Views are still going to slide within their container.
The easy way around this is to move the image_album_background into a sibling of other two instead of parent. If you don't already have a container that is capable of that (e.g. LinearLayout), one extra level will do it:
<FrameLayout ...>
<ImageView android:id="#+id/image_album_background"/>
<other views.../>
</FrameLayout>
5.1.1 fixed confirmed
#George Mount mentioned that support.v4.fragments would fix that one, but in return, you will need to implement your Activity as FragmentActivity.
This is an old question, though, today I was having the same problem and I solved it by adding the tag android:transitionGroup="false|true" to the the ViewGroups, include the root, which of course, should be settled to false. I'm now able to run different animations, in different views (include|exclude views) and the behaviour is as expected.

MvxListViews with checkboxes inside the ItemsSource are not selectable

I have an MvxListView that I'm showing some recipe cards in. When the user clicks a card they should be taken to a detail screen. The problem I'm running into is that when there is a CheckBox (bound or unbound) in the cell, the entire cell ignores the click event.
My MvxListView is created with:
<MvxListView
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
local:MvxBind="ItemsSource Recipes; ItemClick ShowRecipeDetailCommand"
local:MvxItemTemplate="#layout/use_recipe_list_item"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="10dp" />
The List item is created with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:local="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#color/use_detail_recipe_background"
android:padding="10dp">
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Title"
android:id="#+id/tvTitle"
android:textSize="24sp"
local:MvxBind="Text Title"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/cbFavorite"
android:textColor="#color/use_detail_recipe_title_text" />
<!-- <CheckBox
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/cbFavorite"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:checked="false"
android:layout_weight="0" />-->
<View
android:id="#+id/vDivider1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="2dp"
android:background="#000000"
android:layout_below="#+id/tvTitle" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Content"
android:id="#+id/tvContent"
android:singleLine="false"
android:layout_below="#+id/vDivider1"
local:MvxBind="Text Content"
android:textColor="#color/use_detail_recipe_content_text"
android:maxLines="4"/>
</RelativeLayout>
If the checkbox isn't commented out, this works. How can I work around this? Would it be possible to add a command to the click on my base RelativeLayout in the item?
Thanks for the tip Stuart. This is indeed not a MvvmCross issue but rather a general Android issue.
The solution was to add the following to each clickable item:
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
