Fluent App Bar

Fluent App Bar is an Android "bottom-sheet" enabling a whole new bottom navigation and menu experience

• Innovative: Fluent App Bar is an innovative UI/UX to manage (Fragment) navigation and visualize menu options.
• Beautiful UI: An elegant UI with a very smooth UX. A bottom navigation bar and a menu in one UI widget.
• Inspired by: Microsoft's Fluent Design System.
• Many thanks to: Dmitry Saviuk who made BlurView, already used for the Blur Dialog

Usage

Add this XML snippet to your layout.

<com.vlstr.fluentappbar.FluentAppBar
        android:id="@+id/fluent_app_bar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        app:fluent_background_colour="@color/colorPrimary"
        app:fluent_foreground_colour="#FFFFFF"

        app:fluent_app_bar_type="FULL_FLUENT"
        app:layout_behavior="android.support.design.widget.BottomSheetBehavior">

</com.vlstr.fluentappbar.FluentAppBar>

And integrate the FluentAppBar this way:

MainActivity.java
---

private void setupFluentAppBar() {
        fluentAppBar = (FluentAppBar) findViewById(R.id.fluent_app_bar);
        fluentAppBar.setNavigationMenu(R.menu.fluent_app_bar_main_menu, this);
        fluentAppBar.setSecondaryMenu(R.menu.fluent_app_bar_secondary_menu, this);
        fluentAppBar.setBlurRadius(10);
}

And to handle the navigation or secondary menu item click:

MainActivity.java
---

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    int resId = (int) v.getTag();
    switch (resId){
        //Navigation Menu
        case R.id.nav_all:
            fluentAppBar.collapse();
            break;
        case R.id.nav_album:
            break;
        case R.id.nav_keywords:
            break;

        // Secondary Menu
        case R.id.menu_sync:
            fluentAppBar.collapse();
            break;
        case R.id.menu_assistant:
            break;
        case R.id.menu_shared:
            break;
    }
  }

You will have to provide 2 XML Menu resource files for the navigation menu and the secondary menu.

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_all"
        android:id="@+id/nav_all"
        android:title="All" />

    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_album"
        android:id="@+id/nav_album"
        android:title="Albums" />

    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_keywords"
        android:id="@+id/nav_keywords"
        android:title="Keywords" />
</menu>

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_sync"
        android:id="@+id/menu_sync"
        android:title="Show Sync Status" />

    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_assistant"
        android:id="@+id/menu_assistant"
        android:title="Photo Assistant" />

    <item
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_shared"
        android:id="@+id/menu_shared"
        android:title="Shared Photos" />
</menu>

Compatibility

This Android library is currently supported by devices with API > 17.

Customisation

Each of the following has got getter/setter methods. Also, the type, background colour and foreground colour can be directly set in the XML layout file.

• Navigation Menu: provide the icons and title for the navigation menu

• Secondary menu

• Type: 3 types are available to you

  • FULL_FLUENT: the fluent blur is always enabled
  • CLICK_FLUENT: the blur is enabled when the FluentAppBar is expanded
  • DISABLE_FLUENT: no blur effect is being used

• Background colour: specify the FluentAppBar's background colour

  • Used as is for the DISABLE_FLUENT and CLICK_FLUENT types
  • Made transparent according to the provided options for FULL_FLUENT and CLICK_FLUENT (when expanded) => works like a filter colour

• Foreground colour: specify the text colour and icon tint

• Ripple style: specify whether you want to use the custom "Fluent Ripple" or keep the default Android ripple

• Background alpha: Set how strong the alpha should be when making the backgrond colour a transparent filter

• Blur radius: Range [1-25] - The lower it is, the more you will see the FluentAppBar's background.

Additional customization These 3 customization options are done through overriding the "@dimen" resource name in your own dimens.xml file. Please name the dimensions like follows:

• Text size
  • Navigation menu ("fluentappbar_navigation_text_size")
  • Secondary menu ("fluentappbar_secondary_menu_text_size")
• Icon size ("fluentappbar_icon_height")

Additional methods

• collapse(): collapse the FluentAppBar after a short delay of 500ms (in order to see the ripple)
• collapseWithoutDelay(): collapse the FluentAppBar without the delay
• expand()
