As I liked the design from BottomNavigationView
I decided to implement a new Menu for my App with it, instead of just using simple buttons.
I took this
This is the same as the accepted answer except I have changed two lines of code marked below. When looping through the BottomNavigationItemViews, I set checked to false always and I also set checkable to false. This prevents the Menu Items from changing size. You still need this proguard rule:
-keepclassmembers class android.support.design.internal.BottomNavigationMenuView {
boolean mShiftingMode;
}
Updated code:
static void removeShiftMode(BottomNavigationView view)
{
BottomNavigationMenuView menuView = (BottomNavigationMenuView) view.getChildAt(0);
try
{
Field shiftingMode = menuView.getClass().getDeclaredField("mShiftingMode");
shiftingMode.setAccessible(true);
shiftingMode.setBoolean(menuView, false);
shiftingMode.setAccessible(false);
for (int i = 0; i < menuView.getChildCount(); i++)
{
BottomNavigationItemView item = (BottomNavigationItemView) menuView.getChildAt(i);
item.setShiftingMode(false);
item.setChecked(false); // <--- This line changed
item.setCheckable(false); // <-- This line was added
}
}
catch (NoSuchFieldException e)
{
Log.e("ERROR NO SUCH FIELD", "Unable to get shift mode field");
}
catch (IllegalAccessException e)
{
Log.e("ERROR ILLEGAL ALG", "Unable to change value of shift mode");
}
}
