Android DialogFragment with AppCompat theme issue

Question

I\'ve trying to create DialoFragment with AppCompat theme, but when i use AppCompat theme, dialog title is not shown.

I\'am using defined style:

Answer 1

Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog sets no title window in default.

Try something like below:

<style name="DialogFragment" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog">
   <item name="android:windowNoTitle">false</item>
</style>

As far as i know once you override onCreateView you are overriding the default layout of the dialogFragment. so i suggest that you create the whole custom dialog fragment layout.

here's a sample xml layout.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:layout_width="fill_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:background="@drawable/rounded_dialog"
              android:orientation="vertical"
              android:padding="@dimen/margin_standard">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:padding="@dimen/margin_standard"
        >


        <TextView
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
            android:id="@+id/dialog_error_prompt_title"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/lorem"
            />
    </LinearLayout>
    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/margin_standard"
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/horizontal_margin"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/margin_standard"
        android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/margin_standard"
        >
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/dialog_error_prompt_description"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/lorem_long"
            />
    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="right"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:weightSum="1"
        android:padding="@dimen/margin_standard">

        <TextView
            android:visibility="invisible"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_margin="@dimen/margin_standard"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:padding="@dimen/margin_standard"
            android:text="@string/cancel"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceButton"
            android:layout_weight=".70"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:textColor="@color/primary"/>

        <TextView
            android:gravity="center"
            android:layout_weight=".30"
            android:id="@+id/dialog_error_prompt_positive_button"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="@dimen/standard_button_height"
            android:layout_margin="@dimen/margin_standard"
            android:background="@drawable/primary_button_selector_background"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:padding="@dimen/margin_standard"
            android:text="@string/ok"`enter code here`
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceButton"
            android:textColor="@color/background_floating_material_light"/>
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Try extending AppCompatDialogFragment instead of DialogFragment. That should do the trick.
