Ability to disable swipe gesture.

[tasomaniac]

I believe it is not defined in the Material Design Guideline. And the new inbox application does not do it. You cannot swipe there. I think it shouldn't be enabled by default.

From the guideline:

They automatically disappear after a timeout or after user interaction elsewhere on the screen, whichever comes first. Snackbars can be swiped off screen. They do not block input on the screens they appear on and cannot receive input focus. Show only one snackbar on screen at a time.

Can they be swiped off in any way on the new inbox app? I don't have it yet.

Ok sorry about that. Guidelines tells that they can.
But in the Inbox app they cannot be swiped. They disappear after a timeout our when you interact with the list. For example when you scroll the list.

I see, thanks for the info. We should add two things:

• Support to enable/disable the swipe-to-dismiss functionality. I wonder if it should be enabled by default
• Dismiss the snackbar with any touch event outside of it

If you ask me the default behaviour is not important as long as it can be disabled.

Do you think we can understand the outside touch events? It can be left to the developer.

And when there is a Floating Action Button, SnackBar moves it upward a little bit to not to cross. Do you think it can be added as well?

[wmora]

I'll look into understanding outside touch events, but you are right it can be left to the developer.

Regarding the FAB, since the Snackbar doesn't have any control over it, what we can do is tell a listener when the Snackbar is about to enter the screen and specify its height in order for the caller to take proper action (move the FAB up, for example).

Wow that was quick, I will take a look at it. Thank you
