Question

Basically I need the functionality of onWindowFocusChanged() but on a Fragment.
The onWindowFocusChanged() listener isn’t actually available to fragments unfortunately, so I’m not sure what to do.

Any way to do this?

Fragments are “drawn” via the View you return in onCreateView(). You can use the event handlers in that. Usually, if there’s a command that needs to be run when the View first comes to view, you can assign it in a Runnable and attach it to the View via the post() method.

getView().post(new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
      // code you want to run when view is visible for the first time
    }
  }
)
