Initially in my app I am creating an AlertDialog
which has three buttons, in which the middle button opens up another AlertDialog
. The problem is that when the second AlertDialog
closes after a button is pressed, the first one closes with it. I think both AlertDialogs
get closed after I press a button on the second AlertDialog
.
What I want is for the first AlertDialog
to open another AlertDialog
that has its own buttons, and when second AlertDialog
presses a button, it only closes itself and goes back to the first one. Is there any way to achieve this?
Here is the code for the button used to open the AlertDialog
:
final ImageButton fabgroup = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.groupButton);
Here's the code for a button that opens an AlertDialog
that contains another button that opens another AlertDialog
using the middle button (create button) on itself, but closes them both when a button on the second one is pressed (either the yes or no button, which is not what I want as I only want the second one to close itself and go back to the first AlertDialog
, and yea this sounds pretty confusing in theory so I can try to clarify if needed):
fabgroup.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
final AlertDialog.Builder helpBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(CreateNote.this);
helpBuilder.setTitle("Select a group");
helpBuilder.setMessage("Add to group?");
final TextView input = new TextView(mainactiv.this);
input.setSingleLine();
input.setText("");
helpBuilder.setView(input);
helpBuilder.setNegativeButton("Yes",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// Do nothing but close the dialog
Toast.makeText(CreateNote.this, "Page has been added to group", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
helpBuilder.setNeutralButton("Create", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
//open another alertbox
AlertDialog.Builder helpBuilder2 = new AlertDialog.Builder(CreateNote.this);
helpBuilder2.setTitle("Assign a new group");
helpBuilder2.setMessage("Create group?");
final EditText input = new EditText(CreateNote.this);
input.setSingleLine();
input.setText("");
helpBuilder2.setView(input);
helpBuilder2.setNegativeButton("Yes",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// Create Group
Toast.makeText(CreateNote.this, "Group has been created", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
helpBuilder2.setPositiveButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// Do nothing
}
});
// Remember, create doesn't show the dialog
AlertDialog helpDialog2 = helpBuilder2.create();
helpDialog2.show();
}
});
helpBuilder.setPositiveButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// Do nothing
}
});
// Remember, create doesn't show the dialog
AlertDialog helpDialog = helpBuilder.create();
helpDialog.show();
}
});
Help would be greatly appreciated.
