I am developing application which contains 2 fragments and i want to show hide according to my need. Following code has simple example of my problem. This simple Fragmentactivity contains 1 button and one listfragment.
This simple example works flawless. but i am not satisfied with show hide fragment. If you remove layout.setVisibility(View.GONE); from the code then ft.hide(f); will not hide fragment. In fact we are not hiding fragment we are hiding container.
My Question is, IS this a way to show hide fragments? If not then please explain with tested example How to hide and show Fragments because lots of people are facing this problem.
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnClickListener {
Fragment1 f;
Button b;
LinearLayout layout;
Fragment myf;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll);
f = new Fragment1();
}
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.animator.fade_in, android.R.animator.fade_out);
if (f.isHidden()) {
ft.show(f);
layout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
b.setText("Hide");
} else {
ft.hide(f);
b.setText("Show");
layout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
ft.commit();
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}

I may be way way too late but it could help someone in the future.
This answer is a modification to mangu23
answer
I only added a for loop to avoid repetition and to easily add more fragments without boilerplate code.
We first need a list of the fragments that should be displayed
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
//...
List<Fragment> fragmentList = new ArrayList<>();
}
Then we need to fill it with our fragments
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
//...
HomeFragment homeFragment = new HomeFragment();
MessagesFragment messagesFragment = new MessagesFragment();
UserFragment userFragment = new UserFragment();
FavoriteFragment favoriteFragment = new FavoriteFragment();
MapFragment mapFragment = new MapFragment();
fragmentList.add(homeFragment);
fragmentList.add(messagesFragment);
fragmentList.add(userFragment);
fragmentList.add(favoriteFragment);
fragmentList.add(mapFragment);
}
And we need a way to know which fragment were selected from the list, so we need getFragmentIndex
function
private int getFragmentIndex(Fragment fragment) {
int index = -1;
for (int i = 0; i < fragmentList.size(); i++) {
if (fragment.hashCode() == fragmentList.get(i).hashCode()){
return i;
}
}
return index;
}
And finally, the displayFragment
method will like this:
private void displayFragment(Fragment fragment) {
int index = getFragmentIndex(fragment);
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
if (fragment.isAdded()) { // if the fragment is already in container
transaction.show(fragment);
} else { // fragment needs to be added to frame container
transaction.add(R.id.placeholder, fragment);
}
// hiding the other fragments
for (int i = 0; i < fragmentList.size(); i++) {
if (fragmentList.get(i).isAdded() && i != index) {
transaction.hide(fragmentList.get(i));
}
}
transaction.commit();
}
In this way, we can call displayFragment(homeFragment)
for example.
This will automatically show the HomeFragment
and hide any other fragment in the list.
This solution allows you to append more fragments to the fragmentList
without having to repeat the if
statements in the old displayFragment
version.
I hope someone will find this useful.

final Fragment fragment1 = new fragment1();
final Fragment fragment2 = new fragment2();
final FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment active = fragment1;
In onCreate, after setContentView, i hid two fragments and committed them to the fragment manager, but i didn't hide the first fragment that will serve as home.
fm.beginTransaction().add(R.id.main_container, fragment2, "2").hide(fragment2).commit();
fm.beginTransaction().add(R.id.main_container,fragment1, "1").commit();
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Fragment another = fragment1;
if(active==fragment1){
another = fragment2;
}
fm.beginTransaction().hide(active).show(another).commit();
active = another;
}

From my code, comparing to above solution, the simplest way is to define a layout which contains the fragment, then you could hide or unhide the fragment by controlling the layout attribute which is align with the general way of view. No additional code needed in this case and the additional deployment attributes of the fragment could be moved to the outer layout.
<LinearLayout style="@style/StHorizontalLinearView"
>
<fragment
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="390dp"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
/>
</LinearLayout>

the answers here are correct and i liked @Jyo the Whiff idea of a show and hide fragment implementation except the way he has it currently would hide the fragment on the first run so i added a slight change in that i added the isAdded check and show the fragment if its not already
public void showHideCardPreview(int id) {
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putInt(Constants.CARD, id);
cardPreviewFragment.setArguments(b);
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction()
.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out);
if (!cardPreviewFragment.isAdded()){
ft.add(R.id.full_screen_container, cardPreviewFragment);
ft.show(cardPreviewFragment);
} else {
if (cardPreviewFragment.isHidden()) {
Log.d(TAG,"++++++++++++++++++++ show");
ft.show(cardPreviewFragment);
} else {
Log.d(TAG,"++++++++++++++++++++ hide");
ft.hide(cardPreviewFragment);
}
}
ft.commit();
}

Try this:
MapFragment mapFragment = (MapFragment)getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.mapview);
mapFragment.getView().setVisibility(View.GONE);

This worked for me
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
if(tag.equalsIgnoreCase("dashboard")){
DashboardFragment dashboardFragment = (DashboardFragment)
fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("dashboard");
if(dashboardFragment!=null) ft.show(dashboardFragment);
ShowcaseFragment showcaseFragment = (ShowcaseFragment)
fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("showcase");
if(showcaseFragment!=null) ft.hide(showcaseFragment);
} else if(tag.equalsIgnoreCase("showcase")){
DashboardFragment dashboardFragment = (DashboardFragment)
fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("dashboard");
if(dashboardFragment!=null) ft.hide(dashboardFragment);
ShowcaseFragment showcaseFragment = (ShowcaseFragment)
fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("showcase");
if(showcaseFragment!=null) ft.show(showcaseFragment);
}
ft.commit();

Don't mess with the visibility flags of the container - FragmentTransaction.hide/show does that internally for you.
So the correct way to do this is:
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction()
.setCustomAnimations(android.R.animator.fade_in, android.R.animator.fade_out)
.show(somefrag)
.commit();
OR if you are using android.support.v4.app.Fragment
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction()
.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out)
.show(somefrag)
.commit();

public void showHideFragment(final Fragment fragment){
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.animator.fade_in,
android.R.animator.fade_out);
if (fragment.isHidden()) {
ft.show(fragment);
Log.d("hidden","Show");
} else {
ft.hide(fragment);
Log.d("Shown","Hide");
}
ft.commit();
}

Hi you do it by using this approach, all fragments will remain in the container once added initially and then we are simply revealing the desired fragment and hiding the others within the container.
// Within an activity
private FragmentA fragmentA;
private FragmentB fragmentB;
private FragmentC fragmentC;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
fragmentA = FragmentA.newInstance("foo");
fragmentB = FragmentB.newInstance("bar");
fragmentC = FragmentC.newInstance("baz");
}
}
// Replace the switch method
protected void displayFragmentA() {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
if (fragmentA.isAdded()) { // if the fragment is already in container
ft.show(fragmentA);
} else { // fragment needs to be added to frame container
ft.add(R.id.flContainer, fragmentA, "A");
}
// Hide fragment B
if (fragmentB.isAdded()) { ft.hide(fragmentB); }
// Hide fragment C
if (fragmentC.isAdded()) { ft.hide(fragmentC); }
// Commit changes
ft.commit();
}
Please see https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Creating-and-Using-Fragments for more info. I hope I get to help anyone. Even if it this is an old question.

In addittion, you can do in a Fragment (for example when getting server data failed):
getView().setVisibility(View.GONE);
