Floating View for Android app - Facebook ChatHeads Notification system This is a demo of how works Facebook ChatHeads.

Details

Basiclay all you need to do is to create a service (background running) with image View like this :

windowManager = (WindowManager) getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE);

    chatHead = new ImageView(this);
  	chatHead.setImageResource(R.drawable.floating2);

		final WindowManager.LayoutParams params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
				WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
				WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
				WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
				WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
				PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);

		params.gravity = Gravity.TOP | Gravity.LEFT;
		params.x = 0;
		params.y = 100;

Then start your service :

    startService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, ServiceFloating.class));

If you wanna have a floating window, you can use PopupWindow :

      LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)getBaseContext().getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);  
  		View popupView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.popup, null);  
			pwindo = new PopupWindow(popupView, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,  LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);  
			if(_enable == true) {
			pwindo.showAsDropDown(chatHead, 50, -30);

    Having `gradlew[.bat]` without `gradle` folder is brocken state

    There should be either gradle folder or gradlew[.bat] should be removed.

    @marshallino16 Anthony, do you need PR for that? I can update build to latest.

    On Android L preview - the icon color does not change

    Hello. I compiled from source. On Android 4.4.4 it works fine. But on Android L preview device (Nexus 7 2013) the color of the icon ignores the selection.

    Thought I should report it to you ;) Thank you for the App.

  • Convert to gradle project

    Convert to gradle project

    I converted the project using Android Studio to gradle. Not much changed, mostly file moves, added a .gitignore and added HoloColorPicker as a gradle dependency.

    The newest HoloColorPicker had a different package naming though. I'm not sure if it broke something, but it looked okay in the Android emulator.

    Hi,

    I'm currently thinking about building an app that uses some kind of floating notifications just like this app does. The project misses a license, sadly, so I can't simply base my work on it.

    What are your thoughts about this? I'd suggest taking a look at choosealicense.com and addalicense.com, those pages make it pretty easy to choose a license that fits your needs and may allow people like me to learn and derive from your work.

    Thanks!
