AmbientMode

public final class AmbientMode
extends Fragment

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.app.Fragment
     ↳ android.support.wear.ambient.AmbientMode


This class was deprecated in API level 27.1.0.
please use AmbientModeSupport instead.

Use this as a headless Fragment to add ambient support to an Activity on Wearable devices.

The application that uses this should add the WAKE_LOCK permission to its manifest.

The primary entry point for this code is the attachAmbientSupport(Activity) method. It should be called with an Activity as an argument and that Activity will then be able to receive ambient lifecycle events through an AmbientMode.AmbientCallback. The Activity will also receive a AmbientMode.AmbientController object from the attachment which can be used to query the current status of the ambient mode. An example of how to attach AmbientMode to your Activity and use the AmbientMode.AmbientController can be found below:

AmbientMode.AmbientController controller = AmbientMode.attachAmbientSupport(this);
     boolean isAmbient =  controller.isAmbient();
 

Summary

Nested classes

class AmbientMode.AmbientCallback

Callback to receive ambient mode state changes. 

interface AmbientMode.AmbientCallbackProvider

Interface for any Activity that wishes to implement Ambient Mode. 

class AmbientMode.AmbientController

A class for interacting with the ambient mode on a wearable device. 

Constants

String EXTRA_BURN_IN_PROTECTION

Property in bundle passed to AmbientCallback#onEnterAmbient(Bundle) to indicate whether burn-in protection is required.

String EXTRA_LOWBIT_AMBIENT

Property in bundle passed to AmbientCallback#onEnterAmbient(Bundle) to indicate whether the device has low-bit ambient mode.

String FRAGMENT_TAG

Fragment tag used by default when adding AmbientMode to add ambient support to an Activity.

Constants

EXTRA_BURN_IN_PROTECTION

added in version 27.1.0
String EXTRA_BURN_IN_PROTECTION

Property in bundle passed to AmbientCallback#onEnterAmbient(Bundle) to indicate whether burn-in protection is required. When this property is set to true, views must be shifted around periodically in ambient mode. To ensure that content isn't shifted off the screen, avoid placing content within 10 pixels of the edge of the screen. Activities should also avoid solid white areas to prevent pixel burn-in. Both of these requirements only apply in ambient mode, and only when this property is set to true.

Constant Value: "com.google.android.wearable.compat.extra.BURN_IN_PROTECTION"

EXTRA_LOWBIT_AMBIENT

added in version 27.1.0
String EXTRA_LOWBIT_AMBIENT

Property in bundle passed to AmbientCallback#onEnterAmbient(Bundle) to indicate whether the device has low-bit ambient mode. When this property is set to true, the screen supports fewer bits for each color in ambient mode. In this case, activities should disable anti-aliasing in ambient mode.

Constant Value: "com.google.android.wearable.compat.extra.LOWBIT_AMBIENT"

FRAGMENT_TAG

String FRAGMENT_TAG

Public methods

attachAmbientSupport

added in version 27.1.0
AmbientMode.AmbientController attachAmbientSupport (T activity)

Attach ambient support to the given activity. Calling this method with an Activity implementing the AmbientMode.AmbientCallbackProvider interface will provide you with an opportunity to react to ambient events such as onEnterAmbient. Alternatively, you can call this method with an Activity which does not implement the AmbientMode.AmbientCallbackProvider interface and that will only enable the auto-resume functionality. This is equivalent to providing (@code null} from the AmbientMode.AmbientCallbackProvider.

Parameters
activity T: the activity to attach ambient support to.

Returns
AmbientMode.AmbientController the associated AmbientMode.AmbientController which can be used to query the state of ambient mode.
