Popup menu comes out in left bottom












0















I am trying to implement popup menu in my fragment but the result is far beyond my desire. I have a button on the action bar and one of these buttons call the popup menu and no problem till here. It successfully calls and I can see the popup menu. Here is how I do that.



In fragment class



@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (item.getItemId() == R.id.x) {
} else showPopup(view /* or getView() */);

return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

public void showPopup(View v) {
PopupMenu popupMenu = new PopupMenu(getContext(), v);
MenuInflater menuInflater = popupMenu.getMenuInflater();
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.event_popup, popupMenu.getMenu());
popupMenu.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem menuItem) {
return false;
}
});
popupMenu.show();
}


popup_menu.xml



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item android:id="@+id/a"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_back"
android:title="a" />

<item android:id="@+id/b"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_back"
android:title="b" />




Fragment's action menu (includes button which opens popup menu)



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:yourapp="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item android:id="@+id/x"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_back"
yourapp:showAsAction="ifRoom"
android:title="" />

<item android:id="@+id/y"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_menu_dot"
yourapp:showAsAction="ifRoom"
android:title="" />

</menu>


And in the result here is how it looks. I want it to be on top right. How can I handle this. As far as I know, Its default placement is already top right.

          You need to provide proper anchor view (overflow menu in this case) to the popup menu.



          Try changing



          showPopup(view);


          to



          View menuItemView = MyActivity.this.findViewById(R.id.overflow_menu); // replace with your id
          showPopup(menuItemView);


          This should bring the popup menu to top. If its still on the left side use



          popupMenu.setGravity(Gravity.END);
