Bottom Navigation icons not highlighting with respect to the loaded fragment

Issue

I have ,

1. Two fragments (Fragment1,Fragment2).
2. Two buttons (Btn1 in frag1 , Btn2 in frag2).
3. A bottom navigation view.

On clicking the Btn in frag1 , we will be directed to frag2.

On clicking the Btn in frag2 , we will be directed to frag1.

while directing from frag(1->2 or 2->1), the icon on the bottom navigation view stays the same

Is there a way to highlight that icon with respect to the loaded fragment?

On Click Listener for btn in frag1

this.getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.body_container, new Fragment2()).commit();

On Click Listener for btn in frag2

this.getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.body_container, new Fragment1()).commit();

OnItemSelectedListener for bottom nav in MainActivity Code

((BottomNavigationView)findViewById(R.id.bottom_nav)).setOnItemSelectedListener(new NavigationBarView.OnItemSelectedListener(){
            Fragment clickedFragment = null;
            @Override
            public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
                switch (item.getItemId()) { 
                    case R.id.one:  clickedFragment = new Fragment1();  break;
                    case R.id.two:  clickedFragment = new Fragment2();  break;
                }
                getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.body_container, clickedFragment).commit();
                return true;
            }
        });

Solution

The setOnItemSelectedListener is only triggered whenever the selected item of the BottomNavigationView changes. What you are currently doing is changing the current displayed fragment. Instead of changing the fragment, you should set the selected item of the BottomNavigationView instead. Something like this should work

((BottomNavigationView) findViewById(R.id.bottom_nav)).setSelectedItemId(R.id.your_menu_item_id);
