DialogFragment fullscreen shows padding on sides

Question

I am creating a custom DialogFragment that is displayed underneath the actionbar. So far everything works great. The layout parameters for dialog fragment are match_pa

Answer 1

DialogFragment (when not told explicitly), will use its inner styles that will wrap your custom layout in it (no fullscreen, etc.).

No need to create custom theme for this problem. Just use this method and set style and theme of your choosing:

/* theme is optional, I am using leanback... */
setStyle(STYLE_NORMAL, R.style.AppTheme_Leanback);
