</FrameLayout>

What I want is I want to open the searchView programmatically to open searchbar without using pressing the search icon in actionbar . How can i achieve this.any help.

Answer 1

您可以使用该库必须扩展的 autocompletetextview 的内置功能

search_view.setFocusedByDefault(true);

Answer 2

I observed the library and MaterialSearchView class i see there one method it is showSearch(). may be it is for show SearchView.

method is in MaterialSearchView.class

public void showSearch(boolean animate) {
if (isSearchOpen()) {
   return;
}

So you can call this method like this :

materialSearchView.showSearch(true/false);

May be work for your requirement. Hope this help you.
