How to make Toolbar transparent? #9

Closed gblancogarcia closed 9 years ago

Hey @kanytu, Nice work :+1:. I wonder if it could be possible to make the toolbar transparent. Do you have any ideas? Thanks in advance. Cheers,

kanytu commented 9 years ago

You can chance the toolbar background to a transparent one. Like #00000000.

Thank you very much for your quick answer. I have already tried it but it is not working. I have also added this code:

<item name="windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>
<item name="android:windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>

Check my other repo for some code to make the toolbar transparent. https://github.com/kanytu/android-parallax-recyclerview. Check the readme

Do you mean this code?

@Override
public void onParallaxScroll(float percentage, float offset, View parallax) {
  Drawable c = mToolbar.getBackground();
  c.setAlpha(Math.round(percentage * 255));
  mToolbar.setBackground(c);
}

This is a cool effect but I am trying to make Toolbar always transparent. My problem is that the content is not below the Toolbar. I have tried to change the layout and place the content layout below the Toolbar but it is not working.

My problem is that the content is not below the Toolbar

How is that a problem? I don't see how that could be a problem. If the toolbar have a transparent background that would not a problem.

Without more information on how you're setting your layout or how you're trying to change the background I can't be of more assistance. Since this is not a lib related issue I suggest you try stackoverflow for a better help on your problem.

I know this is not a issue related with your library. Anyway, thanks for your help.
