How to get Toolbar from fragment?

Question

I have ActionBarActivity with NavigationDrawer and use support_v7 Toolbar as ActionBar. In one of my fragments toolbar has custom view

Answer 1

if you are using custom toolbar or ActionBar and you want to get reference of your toolbar/action bar from Fragments then you need to first get instance of your Main Activity from Fragment's onCreateView Method like below.

MainActivity activity = (MainActivity) getActivity();

then use activity for further implementation like below

ImageView vRightBtn = activity.toolbar.findViewById(R.id.toolbar_right_btn);

Before calling this, you need to initialize your custom toolbar in your MainActivity as below.

First set define your toolbar public like

public Toolbar toolbar;
public ActionBar actionBar;

and in onCreate() Method assign the custom toolbar id

toolbar = findViewById(R.id.custom_toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
actionBar = getSupportActionBar();

That's It. It will work in Fragment.
