use GuidedStepSupportFragment

A GuidedStepFragment is used to guide the user through a decision or series of decisions. It is composed of a guidance view on the left and a view on the right containing a list of possible actions.

Basic Usage

Clients of GuidedStepFragment must create a custom subclass to attach to their Activities. This custom subclass provides the information necessary to construct the user interface and respond to user actions. At a minimum, subclasses should override:

Clients use following helper functions to add GuidedStepFragment to Activity or FragmentManager:

Theming and Stylists

GuidedStepFragment delegates its visual styling to classes called stylists. The GuidanceStylist is responsible for the left guidance view, while the GuidedActionsStylist is responsible for the right actions view. The stylists use theme attributes to derive values associated with the presentation, such as colors, animations, etc. Most simple visual aspects of GuidanceStylist and GuidedActionsStylist can be customized via theming; see their documentation for more information.

GuidedStepFragments must have access to an appropriate theme in order for the stylists to function properly. Specifically, the fragment must receive Theme_Leanback_GuidedStep, or a theme whose parent is is set to that theme. Themes can be provided in one of three ways:

  • The simplest way is to set the theme for the host Activity to the GuidedStep theme or a theme that derives from it.
  • If the Activity already has a theme and setting its parent theme is inconvenient, the existing Activity theme can have an entry added for the attribute LeanbackGuidedStepTheme_guidedStepTheme. If present, this theme will be used by GuidedStepFragment as an overlay to the Activity's theme.
  • Finally, custom subclasses of GuidedStepFragment may provide a theme through the onProvideTheme() method. This can be useful if a subclass is used across multiple Activities.

If the theme is provided in multiple ways, the onProvideTheme override has priority, followed by the Activity's theme. (Themes whose parent theme is already set to the guided step theme do not need to set the guidedStepTheme attribute; if set, it will be ignored.)

If themes do not provide enough customizability, the stylists themselves may be subclassed and provided to the GuidedStepFragment through the onCreateGuidanceStylist() and onCreateActionsStylist() methods. The stylists have simple hooks so that subclasses may override layout files; subclasses may also have more complex logic to determine styling.

Guided sequences

GuidedStepFragments can be grouped together to provide a guided sequence. GuidedStepFragments grouped as a sequence use custom animations provided by GuidanceStylist and GuidedActionsStylist (or subclasses) during transitions between steps. Clients should use add(FragmentManager, GuidedStepFragment) to place subsequent GuidedFragments onto the fragment stack so that custom animations are properly configured. (Custom animations are triggered automatically when the fragment stack is subsequently popped by any normal mechanism.)

Note: Currently GuidedStepFragments grouped in this way must all be defined programmatically, rather than in XML. This restriction may be removed in the future.

Constants

EXTRA_UI_STYLE

added in version 24.1.0
String EXTRA_UI_STYLE

Fragment argument name for UI style. The argument value is persisted in fragment state and used to select fragment transition. The value is initially UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE and might be changed in one of the three helper functions:

Argument value can be either:

Constant Value: "uiStyle"

UI_STYLE_ACTIVITY_ROOT

added in version 24.1.0
int UI_STYLE_ACTIVITY_ROOT

One possible value of argument EXTRA_UI_STYLE. This is the case that we show first GuidedStepFragment in a separate activity. The default behavior of this style:

  • Enter transition is assigned null (will rely on activity transition), exit transition is same as UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE. Note: Changing exit transition by UI style is not working because fragment transition asks for exit transition before UI style is restored in Fragment.onCreate().

Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)

UI_STYLE_DEFAULT

added in version 24.1.0
int UI_STYLE_DEFAULT

This constant was deprecated in API level 24.1.0.
Same value as UI_STYLE_REPLACE.

Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)

UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE

added in version 24.1.0
int UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE

Default value for argument EXTRA_UI_STYLE. The default value is assigned in GuidedStepFragment constructor. This is the case that we show GuidedStepFragment on top of other content. The default behavior of this style:

  • Enter transition slides in from two sides, exit transition slide out to START(left). Background will be faded in. Note: Changing exit transition by UI style is not working because fragment transition asks for exit transition before UI style is restored in Fragment .onCreate().
When popping multiple GuidedStepFragment, finishGuidedStepFragments() also changes the top GuidedStepFragment to UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE in order to run the return transition (reverse of enter transition) of UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

UI_STYLE_REPLACE

added in version 24.1.0
int UI_STYLE_REPLACE

This is the case that we use GuidedStepFragment to replace another existing GuidedStepFragment when moving forward to next step. Default behavior of this style is:

  • Enter transition slides in from END(right), exit transition same as UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE.

Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)

                int id)

Adds the specified GuidedStepFragment to the fragment stack, replacing any existing GuidedStepFragments in the stack, and configuring the fragment-to-fragment custom transitions. A backstack entry is added, so the fragment will be dismissed when BACK key is pressed.

  • If current fragment on stack is GuidedStepFragment: assign UI_STYLE_REPLACE and onAddSharedElementTransition(FragmentTransaction, GuidedStepFragment) will be called to perform shared element transition between GuidedStepFragments.
  • If current fragment on stack is not GuidedStepFragment: assign UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE

    Note: currently fragments added using this method must be created programmatically rather than via XML.

    Parameters
    fragmentManager FragmentManager: The FragmentManager to be used in the transaction.

    Adds the specified GuidedStepFragment as content of Activity; no backstack entry is added so the activity will be dismissed when BACK key is pressed. The method is typically called in Activity.onCreate() when savedInstanceState is null. When savedInstanceState is not null, the Activity is being restored, do not call addAsRoot() to duplicate the Fragment restored by FragmentManager. UI_STYLE_ACTIVITY_ROOT is assigned. Note: currently fragments added using this method must be created programmatically rather than via XML.

    Parameters
    activity Activity: The Activity to be used to insert GuidedstepFragment.

    setActions

    added in version 22.1.0
    void setActions (List<GuidedAction> actions)

    Sets the list of GuidedActions that the user may take in this fragment. Uses DiffCallback set by setActionsDiffCallback(DiffCallback).

    Parameters
    actions List: The list of GuidedActions for this fragment.

    setActionsDiffCallback

    added in version 27.1.0
    void setActionsDiffCallback (DiffCallback<GuidedAction> diffCallback)

    Sets the RecyclerView DiffCallback used when setActions(List) is called. By default GuidedStepFragment uses GuidedActionDiffCallback. Sets it to null if app wants to refresh the whole list.

    Parameters
    diffCallback DiffCallback: DiffCallback used in setActions(List).

    setButtonActions

    added in version 24.1.0
    void setButtonActions (List<GuidedAction> actions)

    setSelectedActionPosition

    added in version 22.1.0
    void setSelectedActionPosition (int position)

    Scrolls the action list to the position indicated, selecting that action's view.

    Parameters
    position int: The integer position of the action of interest.

    setSelectedButtonActionPosition

    added in version 24.1.0
    void setSelectedButtonActionPosition (int position)

    Scrolls the action list to the position indicated, selecting that button action's view.

    Parameters
    position int: The integer position of the button action of interest.

    setUiStyle

    added in version 24.1.0
    void setUiStyle (int style)

    Set UI style to fragment arguments. Default value is UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE when fragment is first initialized. UI style is used to choose different fragment transition animations and determine if this is the first GuidedStepFragment on backstack. In most cases app does not directly call this method, app calls helper function add(FragmentManager, GuidedStepFragment, int). However if the app creates Fragment transaction and controls backstack by itself, it would need call setUiStyle() to select the fragment transition to use.

    Parameters
    style int: UI_STYLE_ACTIVITY_ROOT UI_STYLE_REPLACE or UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE.

    Protected methods

    onAddSharedElementTransition

    added in version 24.1.0
    void onAddSharedElementTransition (FragmentTransaction ft, 
                    GuidedStepFragment disappearing)

    Called when this fragment is added to FragmentTransaction with UI_STYLE_REPLACE (aka when the GuidedStepFragment replacing an existing GuidedStepFragment). Default implementation establishes connections between action background views to morph action background bounds change from disappearing GuidedStepFragment into this GuidedStepFragment. The default implementation heavily relies on GuidedActionsStylist's layout, app may override this method when modifying the default layout of GuidedActionsStylist.

    Parameters
    ft FragmentTransaction: The FragmentTransaction to add shared element.

    disappearing GuidedStepFragment: The disappearing fragment.

    onProvideFragmentTransitions

    added in version 24.1.0
    void onProvideFragmentTransitions ()

    Called by Constructor to provide fragment transitions. The default implementation assigns transitions based on getUiStyle():

    • UI_STYLE_REPLACE Slide from/to end(right) for enter transition, slide from/to start(left) for exit transition, shared element enter transition is set to ChangeBounds.
    • UI_STYLE_ENTRANCE Enter transition is set to slide from both sides, exit transition is same as UI_STYLE_REPLACE, no shared element enter transition.
    • UI_STYLE_ACTIVITY_ROOT Enter transition is set to null and app should rely on activity transition, exit transition is same as UI_STYLE_REPLACE, no shared element enter transition.

    The default implementation heavily relies on GuidedActionsStylist and GuidanceStylist layout, app may override this method when modifying the default layout of GuidedActionsStylist or GuidanceStylist.

    TIP: because the fragment view is removed during fragment transition, in general app cannot use two Visibility transition together. Workaround is to create your own Visibility transition that controls multiple animators (e.g. slide and fade animation in one Transition class).
