Snackbar is shown behind button in Android kotlin

Question

I'm trying to show snackbar without context but it gets hidden behind the system UI buttons, So what to do for the same?

Code:

Snackbar.make(this.vie, message, Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT)
            .setBackgroundTint(resources.getColor(R.color.blue, null)).show()

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Is your window set to no limits(maybe for supporting transparent nav bar)? If so, removing that piece of code can be a fix for now, I guess.

Answer 2

For example you can use setAnchorView method where you will define views according to which you would like to align your snackBar. Some sample below:

Snackbar snackbar = Snackbar.make(view,"Snackbar over BottomNav",Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE);
    snackbar.setAnchorView(bottomNavigationView);
    snackbar.show();

and also setLayoutParams can be useful:

Snackbar snack = Snackbar.make(findViewById(R.id.coordinatorLayout), 
    "Your message", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG);
CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams params = (CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams) 
    snack.getView().getLayoutParams();
params.setMargins(leftMargin, topMargin, rightMargin, bottomBar.height);
snack.getView().setLayoutParams(params);
snack.show();
