How to create a DialogFragment without title?

Question

I\'m creating a DialogFragment to show some help messages regarding my app. Everything works fine besides one thing: There is a black stripe at the top of the window that sh

Answer 1

Just add this line of code in your HelpDialog.onCreateView(...)

getDialog().getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

This way you're explicitly asking to get a window without title :)

EDIT

As @DataGraham and @Blundell pointed out on the comments below, it's safer to add the request for a title-less window in the onCreateDialog() method instead of onCreateView(). This way you can prevent ennoying NPE when you're not using your fragment as a Dialog:

@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  Dialog dialog = super.onCreateDialog(savedInstanceState);

  // request a window without the title
  dialog.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
  return dialog;
}

Answer 2

Try easy way

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setStyle(STYLE_NO_TITLE, 0);
}

Answer 3

Dialog fragment has setStyle method, which should be called before view creation Java Doc. Also style of the dialog can be set with the same method

public static MyDialogFragment newInstance() {
        MyDialogFragment mDialogFragment = new MyDialogFragment();
        //Set Arguments here if needed for dialog auto recreation on screen rotation
        mDialogFragment.setStyle(DialogFragment.STYLE_NO_TITLE, 0);
        return mDialogFragment;
}

Answer 4

FragmentManager manager = getSupportFragmentManager();
SettingsDialog sd = new SettingsDialog();
sd.setStyle(DialogFragment.STYLE_NO_TITLE, 0);
sd.show(manager, "settings_dialog");

Answer 5

Set the style to Theme_Holo_Dialog_NoActionBar:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setStyle(STYLE_NORMAL, android.R.style.Theme_Holo_Dialog_NoActionBar);
}

Answer 6

public class LoginDialog extends DialogFragment {   
    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.login_dialog, null);
        getDialog().getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        return view;
    }   
}
