adding a tick mark for selected item for popup menu in android

Question

I created popup menu for a Image button and applied some styles to it.

How to reduce popup menu width and add a tick mark when the user selects the popup menu item ?

My Code :

btn_a.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            PopupMenu a_popup = new PopupMenu(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), a_period);
            a_popup.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.popup_a, a_popup.getMenu());

            a_popup.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new OnMenuItemClickListener() {

                @Override
                public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
                    Toast.makeText(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), "Clicked "+item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    return true;
                }
            });
            a_popup.show();
        }
    });

To Add tick mark when popmenu is selected,

Your menu file:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <group android:checkableBehavior="single">
        <item android:id="@+id/flat"
              android:checkable="true"
              android:title="Flat" />
        <item android:id="@+id/stadium"
            android:checkable="true"    
              android:title="Stadium" />
        <item android:id="@+id/jazz"
        android:checkable="true"
              android:title="Jazz" />
         <item android:id="@+id/rock"
         android:checkable="true"
              android:title="Rock" />
         <item android:id="@+id/pop"
         android:checkable="true"
              android:title="Pop" />
    </group>
</menu>

in setOnMenuItemClickListener() write below code:

popup.getMenu().getItem(2).setChecked(true);

It will select 3rd item.

To reduce width of popup menu, you can use Popup Window. Refer this link

Is it possible to move the tick mark to left of the text.(default is right to text.) – tenten May 30 '16 at 04:44
if you want tick mark to left then use popup window instead of default popup menu. – Mehta May 31 '16 at 05:04
