ExpandableButtonMenu is an Android library which implements an expandable button that can be used as a substitute of a fixed size menu. It is a Foursquare like button that expands into three buttons.
The library is available on Maven Central
dependencies {
compile 'co.lemonlabs:expandable-button-menu:1.0.0'
}
The library supports Android 2.3+.
Just include this view to your root layout (current only RelativeLayout is supported):
<lt.lemonlabs.android.expandablebuttonmenu.ExpandableMenuOverlay
android:id="@+id/button_menu"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:src="@drawable/circle_home"
/>
Custom attributes can be used for easy customization. Add this to your layout declaration:
xmlns:ebm="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
and you can use these attributes
ebm:dimAmount="0.8" // Screen dim amount when menu is expanded
ebm:mainButtonSize="0.25" // Main button size in % of screen height
ebm:otherButtonSize="0.22" // Expanded menu button size in % of screen height
ebm:distanceY="0.17" // Distance between expanded and collapsed button in screen % of screen height
ebm:distanceX="0.28" // Distance between expanded button in % of screen width
ebm:bottomPad="0.02" // Button padding in % of screen height
// Button drawable and text resources
ebm:closeButtonSrc="@drawable/circle_close"
ebm:leftButtonSrc="@drawable/circle_1"
ebm:midButtonSrc="@drawable/circle_2"
ebm:rightButtonSrc="@drawable/circle_3"
ebm:leftButtonText="@string/action_left"
ebm:midButtonText="@string/action_mid"
ebm:rightButtonText="@string/action_right"
In your activity/fragment add the callbacks:
menuOverlay = (ExpandableMenuOverlay) findViewById(R.id.button_menu);
menuOverlay.setOnMenuButtonClickListener(new ExpandableButtonMenu.OnMenuButtonClick() {
@Override
public void onClick(ExpandableButtonMenu.MenuButton action) {
switch (action) {
case MID:
// do stuff and dismiss
menuOverlay.getButtonMenu().toggle();
break;
case LEFT:
// do stuff
break;
case RIGHT:
// do stuff
break;
}
}
});
- Thanks to Rockmelt android app for inspiration. Unfortunately, their app is no longer available.
- NineOldDroids for allowing back porting the library.
