Android Tv RecyclerView set next focus of its item

Android Tv RecyclerView set next focus of its item

In Android TV, managing focus is crucial for a good user experience. To set the next focus of items in a RecyclerView for Android TV, you can use the setOnItemViewSelectedListener method along with setSelectedPosition on the HorizontalGridView (a specialized RecyclerView for horizontal scrolling, commonly used in Android TV applications).

Here's an example of how you can set the next focus of items in an HorizontalGridView:

import android.os.Bundle; import android.support.v17.leanback.app.HorizontalGridView; import android.support.v17.leanback.app.VerticalGridFragment; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.ArrayObjectAdapter; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.OnItemViewSelectedListener; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.Presenter; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.PresenterSelector; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.Row; import android.support.v17.leanback.widget.RowPresenter; public class MyVerticalGridFragment extends VerticalGridFragment { @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); // Create a custom PresenterSelector and set it to your VerticalGridPresenter VerticalGridPresenter verticalGridPresenter = new VerticalGridPresenter(ZOOM_FACTOR_NONE); verticalGridPresenter.setNumberOfColumns(4); verticalGridPresenter.setShadowEnabled(false); verticalGridPresenter.setKeepChildForeground(false); setGridPresenter(verticalGridPresenter); // Create your custom Adapter ArrayObjectAdapter adapter = new ArrayObjectAdapter(new MyPresenterSelector()); // Add items to the adapter // ... // Set the adapter to the VerticalGridFragment setAdapter(adapter); // Set an OnItemViewSelectedListener to handle focus change setOnItemViewSelectedListener(new OnItemViewSelectedListener() { @Override public void onItemSelected(Presenter.ViewHolder itemViewHolder, Object item, RowPresenter.ViewHolder rowViewHolder, Row row) { // Set the next focus item when an item is selected int position = getVerticalGridView().getSelectedPosition(); getVerticalGridView().setSelectedPositionSmooth(position + 1); } }); } // Define your custom PresenterSelector private static class MyPresenterSelector extends PresenterSelector { @Override public Presenter getPresenter(Object item) { // Return the appropriate Presenter for each item // ... } } }

In this example:

  • MyVerticalGridFragment extends VerticalGridFragment and sets up the VerticalGridPresenter and the custom ArrayObjectAdapter.
  • An OnItemViewSelectedListener is added to the VerticalGridFragment using setOnItemViewSelectedListener. This listener is called when an item is selected, and it sets the next focus item using setSelectedPositionSmooth.
  • The MyPresenterSelector class is a placeholder for your custom PresenterSelector implementation. Adjust it according to your needs.

This is a basic example, and you might need to customize it based on your specific use case and the structure of your RecyclerView. The key is to use the setOnItemViewSelectedListener to handle focus changes and set the next focus item accordingly.
