When restoring the state of the adapter, all the fragments' menu
visibility were set to false, effectively disabling the menu from the
user until he switched pages or another event that triggered the menu to
be visible again happened.
FragmentStatePagerAdapter is deprecated and should be replaced with its
ViewPager2 counterpart, until then, this should do it.
- Use a proper drop up/down arrow icon.
- Move selected service views for better visibility.
- Show the selected service icon next to its name.
- Add a subtle fade background to the service name/icon for better
readability.
When contents of NewPipe navigation drawer change, NavigationMenuView
(which is actually a RecyclerView) removes and re-adds all its adapter
children, which leads to temporary loss of focus on currently focused drawer
child. This situation was not anticipated by developers of original
support library DrawerLayout: while NavigationMenuView itself is able
to keep focus from escaping via onRequestFocusInDescendants(),
the implementation of that method in DrawerLayout does not pass focus
to previously focused View. In fact it does not pass focus correctly at all
because the AOSP implementation of that method does not call addFocusables()
and simply focuses the first available VISIBLE View, without regard
to state of drawers.
Keyboard focus clusters prevent that from working, so
we simply remove all focus clusters.
While they are generally a good idea, focus clusters were created
with Chrome OS and it's keyboard-driven interface in mind - there is no
documented way to move focus between clusters using only IR remote.
As such, there are no negative consequences to disabling them on Android TV.
YouTube, for example, has a dedicated feed which was built to be used
like this. It comes with some caveats though, like lacking enough
information about the items and returning a limited amount of them.
Nonetheless, a nice option for users that like speedy updates but don't
mind this issue.
Now only the subscriptions from the selected group by the user will be
loaded.
Also add an option to decide how much time have to pass since the last
refresh before the subscription is deemed as not up to date. This helps
when a subscription appear in multiple groups, since updating in one
will not require to be fetched again in the others.
- Introduce Groupie for easier lists implementations
- Use some of the new components of the Android Architecture libraries
- Add a bunch of icons for groups, using vectors, which still is
compatible with older APIs through the compatibility layer
