When I was browsing the slack application I found new feature I liked, which is the return of activity by dragging without pressing the back button as usual.

So is there a specific code to do that? I did a research on how to do that but I couldn't find any explanation for it, so how can I do that.

Here is a short video about the new feature click here

Thanks to Coding in flow for that. Watch this tutorial for more explanation.

Follow these steps to do the job.

1- We will use a library to do that called Slidr, use the last version.

// swipe the Activity to close
implementation 'com.r0adkll:slidableactivity:2.1.0'

2- Add a new style in your styles.xml called SliderActivityTheme. This theme will make the background for the activity when swipe it as transparent to show the content of the fragment...etc, "default background white"

<!--Theme for Slider Activity-->
<style name="AppTheme.SliderActivityTheme">
    <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>

3- A- Add slide method to your class and called in OnCreate

// Make slider on the Activity
public void Slider () {
    Slidr.attach(this);
}

B- Called in OnCreate

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.your_activity_name_here);

    // slider the activity
    Slider();
}

or just simply add this in your OnCreate directly

// slider the activity
Slidr.attach(this);

4- In your AndroidManifest.xml add the theme that we had to create.

android:theme="@style/AppTheme.SliderActivityTheme"

Make it like that

<activity
   android:name=".Activity.ActivityImages.ImagesMorningActivity"
   android:launchMode="singleTop"
   android:theme="@style/AppTheme.SliderActivityTheme"/>
<activity

That's all, and enjoy with your new feature ;)

Working with Fragment? No problem, check the library page to know how to do that
