<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#v4">v4 Support library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added <code>OnScrollChangedListener</code> interface support to the
<code>NestedScrollView</code> widget. It
allows you to receive callbacks when the scroll X or Y positions change.</li>
<li>Added a <code>MediaButtonReceiver</code> class to forward received playback controls
to a service that’s managing the <code>MediaSessionCompat</code> class. The
<code>MediaSessionCompat</code> class has a
constructor that can automatically find a media button receiver in the manifest. A
media button receiver is a key part to <a href=

playback controls</a> from hardware or bluetooth controls.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#v7-appcompat">v7 appcompat library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added material design <code>Seekbar</code> and <code>ImageButton</code> widgets.</li>
<li>Updated the <code>ImageView</code> widget to support the tint feature.</li>
<li>Updated the look-and-feel of the <code>SwitchCompat</code> widget.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#v7-mediarouter">v7 mediarouter library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added the following features to the <code>MediaRouteChooserDialog</code> class:</li>
<ul>
<li>Displays a loading page while discovering media route providers.</li>
<li>Includes a device type icon for easier device identification.</li>
<li>Sorts the routes according to frequency of use in the current app.</li>
<li>Supports landscape mode.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Added the following features to the <code>MediaRouteControllerDialog</code> class:</li>
<ul>
<li>Recognizes screen casting and provides a proper description.</li>
<li>Supports various album art sizes and aspect ratios, and loads the art asynchronously.</li>
<li>Automatically selects the content color based on the primary color of the app.</li>
<li>Adjusts the dialog layout based on available screen space on the device.</li>
<li>Supports landscape mode.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#v7-palette">v7 palette library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added the <code>setRegion()</code> method to support extracting color from a specific
region of a <code>Bitmap</code> object.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#v7-recyclerview">v7 recyclerview library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added an improved animation API to the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class for better
customizations:</li>
<ul>
<li>Change animations no longer enforce two copies of the <code>ViewHolder</code> object,
which enables item content animations. Also, the <code>ItemAnimator</code> object
decides whether it wants to reuse the same <code>ViewHolder</code> object or create a
new one.</li>
<li>The new information record API gives the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class the flexibility
to collect data at the correct point in the layout lifecycle. This information is later
passed into the animate callbacks.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Provided an easy transition plan for this backward-incompatible API change:</li>
<ul>
<li>If you’ve previously extended the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class, you can change
your base class to <code>SimpleItemAnimator</code> and your code should work as before.
The <code>SimpleItemAnimator</code> class provides the old API by wrapping the new API.</li>
<li>Some methods were removed from the <code>ItemAnimator</code> class. The following
code will no longer compile:</li>
<pre>recyclerView.getItemAnimator().setSupportsChangeAnimations(false)</pre>
<p>You can replace it with:</p>
<pre>
ItemAnimator animator = recyclerView.getItemAnimator();
if (animator instanceof SimpleItemAnimator) {
((SimpleItemAnimator) animator).setSupportsChangeAnimations(false);
}
</pre>

<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added a version of the <code>GuidedStepFragment</code> class for the Support library
(extends <code>android.support.v4.app.Fragment</code>), and improved animations and
transitions.</li>
<li>Updated the <code>GuidedStepFragment</code> class so it can be placed on top of
existing content.</li>
<li>Added the ability to annotate different types of search completions to the
<code>SearchFragment</code> class.</li>
<li>Added staggered slide transition support to the <code>VerticalGridFragment</code>
class.</li>

character counting</a> support to the <code>TextInputLayout</code> widget.</li>
<li>Added edge snapping support to the <code>AppBarLayout</code> class by adding the
<code>SCROLL_FLAG_SNAP</code> constant. When scrolling ends, if the view is only
partially visible, the view is snapped and scrolled to its closest edge.</li>
<li>Added support for custom views to the <code>NavigationView</code> class by using the
<code>app:actionLayout</code> attribute or <code>MenuItemCompat.setActionView()</code>
method.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dt>Changes for <a href="features.html#custom-tabs">Custom Tabs Support library:</a></dt>
<dd>
<ul>
<li>Added the <code>enableUrlBarHiding()</code> method to the <code>CustomTabsIntent</code>
class. It lets the client customize whether the URL bar should be hidden automatically
on scroll down.</li>
<li>Added the <code>setActionButton()</code> method to the <code>CustomTabsSession</code>
class. It lets the client
change the icon for a custom action button in an already launched custom tab.</li>
