Question

I\'m updating my current app to use snackbars, in the Google spec they show various ways of using them http://www.google.com/design/spec/components/snackbars-toasts.html#sna

Answer 1

I just add my solution because the @BamsMamx solution's didn't work I need to add getChildAt(0)

  public static void displaySnackBarWithBottomMargin(BaseActivity activity, View main) {
   Snackbar snackbar = Snackbar.make(main, R.string.register_contacts_snackbar, Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT);
    final FrameLayout snackBarView = (FrameLayout) snackbar.getView();

    FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = (FrameLayout.LayoutParams) snackBarView.getChildAt(0).getLayoutParams();
    params.setMargins(params.leftMargin,
                params.topMargin,
                params.rightMargin,
                params.bottomMargin + 100;
    snackBarView.getChildAt(0).setLayoutParams(params);
    snackbar.show();
}

Just add it in your theme:

<item name="snackbarStyle">@style/SnackbarMessageStyle</item>

And add the style:

<style name="SnackbarMessageStyle" parent="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Snackbar">
    <item name="android:layout_margin">@dimen/snackbarMessageMargin</item>
</style>

For kotlin developers, just some handy extension that I use,

inline fun View.snack(message:String, left:Int = 10, top:Int = 10, right:Int = 10, bottom:Int = 10, duration:Int = Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT){
 Snackbar.make(this, message, duration).apply {

     val params = CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams(CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT )
     params.setMargins(left, top, right, bottom)
     params.gravity = Gravity.BOTTOM
     params.anchorGravity = Gravity.BOTTOM

     view.layoutParams = params
     show()
 }
}


inline fun View.longSnack(message:String){
   snack(message, duration = Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
}

This works for me
container is parent tag which is CoordinatorLayout
R.id.bottom_bar is a view on which above snackbar should be shown

    Snackbar.make(container, getString(R.string.copied), Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG).apply {
        val params = view.layoutParams as CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams
        params.anchorId = R.id.bottom_bar
        params.anchorGravity = Gravity.TOP or Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL
        params.gravity = Gravity.TOP or Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL
        view.layoutParams = params
        show()
    }

if yout want additional margin then simply add padding to R.id.bottom_bar. This only works

Try this:

Snackbar snackbar = Snackbar.make(findViewById(android.R.id.content), "message", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG);

View snackBarView = snackbar.getView();
            LayoutParams params = new LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,      
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

params.setMargins(left, top, right, bottom);

snackBarView.setLayoutParams(params);

snackbar.show();

Answer 6

Personally, none of the proposed methods has come up (Android 9)
I decided in the following way.
I added an invisible object (anchor_view) to the layout and made:

snackbar.anchorView = anchor_view
