I'm working on an Android app using Java and I'd like to create dropdown menus that behave like the ones in the attached mockup images.
Each dropdown (AutoCompleteTextView) should:
Show a downward arrow on the right.
Expand fully below when clicked, pushing other views down (not overlapping).
Display a list of app names.
Be part of a scrollable layout if needed.
Reference images:
I’m currently using AutoCompleteTextView inside TextInputLayout, but the dropdown appears over other views instead of expanding the layout downwards.
Question: How can I make the dropdown expand within the layout, so that it pushes other views down (like an ExpandableListView or similar behavior), instead of appearing as a floating overlay?
Thanks!
