Standard app bar

Specs:

The standard app bar height is 56dp on mobile and 64dp on larger screen sizes.

The app bar has two scrolling options:

1. The app bar can scroll off-screen with the content and return when the user reverse scrolls
2. The app bar can stay fixed at the top with content scrolling under it

App bar with tabs

The standard app bar component that can include the following blocks: a toolbar, tab bar, or flexible space.

Tabs may have one of these behaviors:

1. The tab bar stays anchored at the top, while the toolbar scrolls off
2. The app bar stays anchored at the top, with the content scrolling underneath
3. Both the toolbar and tab bar scroll off with content. The tab bar returns on reverse-scroll, and the toolbar returns on complete reverse scroll

Flexible space

Because the app bar is flexible, it can be extended to accommodate larger typography or images. To extend the app bar, add a flexible space block.

Flexible space may be displayed one of two ways:

1. The flexible space shrinks until only the toolbar remains. The title shrinks to 20sp in the navigation bar. When scrolling to the top of the page, the flexible space and the title grow into place again.
2. The whole app bar scrolls off. When the user reverse scrolls, the toolbar returns anchored to the top. When scrolling all the way back, the flexible space and the title grow into place again.

Flexible space with image

Use flexible space to accommodate images in the app bar with the desired aspect ratio.

In this example, the aspect ratio is 4:3. When scrolling, the content pushes up the image, which shrinks the flexible space. At the end of the transformation, the image gets tinted with the primary color, independent of scrolling.

Flexible space with overlapping content

Content can overlap the app bar.

The app bar has two scrolling options:

• The app bar is initially positioned behind the content. Upon upward scroll, the app bar should scroll faster than the content, until the content no longer overlaps it. Once anchored in place, the app bar lifts up for content to scroll underneath.

• The app bar can scroll off-screen with the content and return when the user reverse scrolls

In this interaction, the app bar cannot include tabs.
