FadingActionBar

FadingActionBar is a library which implements the cool fading action bar effect that can be seen in the new Play Music app.

This library uses the techniques outlined by Cyril Mottier in a recent blog post.

For reasons of backwards compatibility this library relies on ActionBarSherlock. If your app uses the native action bar, there is a fork for you.

Try out the sample application:

Or browse the source code of the sample application for a complete example of use.

Including in your project

Just add the library to your application as a library project. And don't forget that your project must use ActionBarSherlock!

Or if you use maven, add the following dependency to your pom:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.manuelpeinado.fadingactionbar</groupId>
    <artifactId>fadingactionbar</artifactId>
    <version>2.2.2</version>
    <type>apklib</type>
</dependency>

Usage

Using the library is really simple, just look at the source code of the provided samples:

You can even use the library from a fragment, which is useful when implementing a dual phone/tablet layout.

Tutorials for all these scenarios are in the works
