I have created a navigation drawer in my application, Its working fine, but when i open another activity and go back to previous activity, the button of navigation drawer stops working, Although navigation drawer is still there. If i slide from left to right it opens the drawer, but when i click on Hamburger icon, it just doesn't do anything.
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_base_navigation);
ViewGroup content = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.base_layout);
getLayoutInflater().inflate(getLayoutRes(), content, true);
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout_main);
headerLayout= (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.header_layout);
btnOpenDrawer= (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_openDrawer);
homeLayout= (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.home_layout);
btnOpenDrawer.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
drawerLayout.openDrawer(Gravity.LEFT);
}
});
Kindly guide me that what i need to add in onRestart(). Do i need to write all this code in onRestart() as well?
I have a NavigationDrawer for my main activity, in one instance I show a fragment and the "Hamburger menu" changes into an arrow.
I disabled the ability to open the drawer via swipe when that fragment is shown by using this
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);
and it works fine but now the problem is the user can still open the drawer by clicking the home button "Arrow". I want the arrow to act as the back button and not open the drawer so how can I stop the drawer from opening?
I guess you need to use setNavigationOnClickListener() on toolbar to override drawer behavior.
Like -
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// logic to decide if drawer open/close, or pop fragment etc
}
});
This does prevents drawer from opening by clicking on icon. But it does open by swiping. But that you already taken care of. So this should work.
Note This works only after you set ActionBarDrawerToggle by calling
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(getActivity(), mDrawerLayout, toolbar, R.string.openDrawer, R.string.closeDrawer){ ...
Put this on your Activity:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (item.getId() == android.R.id.home){
doSomething(); //can be a finish()
}
}
Or, from this answer
mDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
popStackIfNeeded();
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_UNLOCKED);
mActionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
}
});
You could try overriding onOptionsItemSelected check for the id android.R.id.home and call finish() to go back to your previous activity.
try to override on options item select.
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home :
// do what you want
return true;
}
return true;
}
I'm scratching my head with this one now.... I have an ActionBarActivity that loads an initial Fragment - the original menu is inflated within the activity. Now, I have a navigation bar that, when an item is selected, loads a different fragment and adds this to the backstack.
When I do this, there are a couple of things I want to set:
Set the home as up indicator
Invalidate the options menu from the main activity
Set has options to true for the Fragment
Ensure that the up indicator correctly navigates back to the original Fragment
Something rather strange is going on - the up indicator appears once only and does not behave as the back button and although I've invalidated and inflated a new menu, the new menu gets appended to the original Activity menu.
EDIT: Ok I've resolved the appending issue - forgot to add menu.clear() in the onCreateOptionsMenu method.
My navigation drawer layout has onClick methods to all menu items which would trigger the load of another Fragment:
public void navItemClick(View view) {
switch (view.getId()) {
case R.id.ripSMS:
mNavigationDrawer.toggleHome(false);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
FragmentTransaction mTrans = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
mTrans.replace(R.id.voiceover_frame_layout,new MessageFragment(),"main_ui")
.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE).addToBackStack("msg").commit();
break;
case R.id.ripEmail:
break;
case R.id.ripSettings:
break;
}
mNavigationDrawer.closeDrawer();
}
toggleHome:
public void toggleHome(boolean show) {
mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(show);
if (!show) {
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);
} else {
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_UNLOCKED);
}
}
Once the item is triggered the onCreate contains the invalidate and the hasOptions code:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getActivity().invalidateOptionsMenu();
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}
The onCreateOptionsMenu then inflates another menu layout (contains a single item called settings).
As mentioned, this only partially works once - the first time I use the item to load the Fragment, I get the back icon but it's also not working (this is set within onOptionsItemSelected to check for the home item press - it does nothing). When I press the back button it takes me back to the correct place. If I navigate back however, the back arrow now longer shows even though the code runs through onCreate!
Ok so I managed to solve this after some trial and error. Two changes made:
Implement addOnBackStackChangedListener
ActionBarDrawerToggle's setToolbarNavigationClickListener needed to be set
As I only have one activity (everything else is Fragment classes) I added the backstack listener to the Parent Activity's onCreate method:
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
} else {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
}
}
});
This resolved the disappearing back arrow when going back to the fragment. Finally added the listener to my NavigationDrawer's setup class:
mDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getActivity().onBackPressed();
}
});
I suppose the only questions I have is everything pointed towards using the onOptionsItemSelected method with android.R.id.home but this never worked for me. It might be the way I've implemented things of course but if someone sees anything obvious as to why please do let me know!
These steps helps you to show back button in toolbar when a fragment is loaded. And to pop out when its clicked.
Set setNavigationOnClickListener to toolbar in you activity.
final DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0){
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
}else {
drawer.openDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
}
});
Implement FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener in you Activity. And register it with SupportFragmentManager in OnCreate()
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(this);
OnBackStackChangedListener Implementation method:
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
if(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0){
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
}else {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
toggle.syncState();
}
}
For me the above answer was not enough, but i've used #Hamz4h_ and added some more after digging into the ActionBarDrawerToggle class. I'm just calling this method of mine from the activity's onCreate:
private void initNavigationElements() {
final ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, mBinding.drawerLayout, mBinding.appBarMain.toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
mBinding.drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(toggle);
// Tricking the toggle by giving it its own arrow as a custom indicator.
// It will use it when setDrawerIndicatorEnabled is called with false
toggle.setHomeAsUpIndicator(toggle.getDrawerArrowDrawable());
toggle.syncState();
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
DrawerArrowDrawable drawerArrowDrawable = toggle.getDrawerArrowDrawable();
if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
// 1 - Display as arrow
drawerArrowDrawable.setProgress(1);
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
} else {
// 2 - Display as arrow menu
drawerArrowDrawable.setProgress(0);
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
}
}
});
toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// This is called only when setDrawerIndicatorEnabled is set as false, meaning we are not at the "root" fragment.
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStackImmediate();
}
});
}
Hope this will help someone :)
I've been searching for a while on how to change between the drawer open/close icon (going from a hamburger to the arrow) to a simple back arrow. My application at the moment only has one Activity which switches between several fragments. At one point, I want to transition between one of the main fragments (ie, one of the fragments in the drawer) to a fragment that hierarchically is under the previous fragment (ie, an "Add New " fragment). In this new fragment, I want to have the Toolbar to show the back button instead of the drawer button.
I've been looking around and trying different solutions for quite a while. Here are the most notable:
Change drawer icon back to back arrow - I successfully removed the drawer icon, but in place there's.... nothing. No up caret, no back button, no icon. I suspect this is because my Activity has no parent, but other than a cheap work around (create another Activity that acts as a parent which launches the main Activity), I'm at a lost of what to do.
Switching between Android Navigation Drawer image and Up caret when using fragments - Similar to the above, yet has far more detail. Ultimately, the icon still doesn't turn into a back button.
Android lollipop toolbar switch between open/close drawer and back button - I find this hard to follow, but ultimately the drawer icon can be tapped and does nothing (although I believe I know how to make it act as a back press). However, the icon doesn't change.
At the moment, I'm thinking of a long, arduous method of creating a custom icon that I hide and show (and hide/show the native drawer icon). However, is there a better way to switch between the drawer and back buttons?
As a side yet related question, I've been looking at the Material Design docs, and a few examples have an X in the top left corner. How different is that to implement than implementing the drawer vs back/up buttons?
Thanks~
Edit:
I can figure out how to replace the icon, but how would I get the click event?
So far, this was my best lead:
Cannot catch toolbar home button click event
What I've tried now:
Disabled the DrawerToggle when necessary (ie, mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(useDrawer);)
Added logs in onOptionsItemSelected in my NavigationDrawerFragment, my Activity, as well as the DialogFragment I'm currently testing which run if item.getItemId() == android.R.id.home is true. None of these log statements go off
For better context, I now have a full screen fragment which adds a "Save" button to the menu and changes the drawer icon to an "X". The fragment can get the save menu event, yet not even the Activity and Drawer can get when the X is tapped.
Edit2:
As requested, here is some code. Note that this is all from this Github repo, which I'm actively working on (note that I have a few useless functions here or there from rapid testing).
ActivityMain:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Add the toolbar
mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
if (mToolbar != null) {
setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
}
// Initialize the drawer
mNavigationDrawerFragment = (NavigationDrawerFragment)
getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.navigation_drawer);
// Set up the drawer
mNavigationDrawerFragment.setUp(
R.id.navigation_drawer,
(DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout),
mToolbar);
// TODO: Check if this helps to catch the main toolbar button click
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);
// Get the titles for the Toolbar
mTitles = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.drawer_items);
mDrawerPosition = -1;
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
// If there was no saved position, then the default, starting position should be used
forceChangeItemSelected(0);
}
else {
// Otherwise, get the saved position from the bundle
int position = savedInstanceState.getInt(KEY_DRAWERPOS);
mNavigationDrawerFragment.setSelectedItem(position);
// Title needs to be re-set
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mTitles[position]);
}
// If I include the below bit, then the DrawerToggle doesn't function
// I don't know how to switch it back and forth
mToolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Log.d(LOG_TAG, "Navigation was clicked");
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
Log.d(LOG_TAG, "Activity responding to menu click...");
if(item.getItemId() == android.R.id.home) Log.d(LOG_TAG, "Activity got it....");
// If the fragment is supposed to handle things, then let it
if(mIsFragmentHandlingMenus) return false;
int id = item.getItemId();
if(id == R.id.save) {
// This isn't implemented! If chosen, then there's a bug!
Log.e(LOG_TAG, "onOptionsItemSelected: Save was selected!");
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#Override
public void fragmentHandlingMenus(boolean isFragmentHandlingMenus) {
// Simply store the setting
mIsFragmentHandlingMenus = isFragmentHandlingMenus;
// Toggle the drawer as necessary
mNavigationDrawerFragment.toggleDrawerUse(!isFragmentHandlingMenus);
}
NavigationDrawerFragment:
public void toggleDrawerUse(boolean useDrawer) {
// Enable/Disable the icon being used by the drawer
mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(useDrawer);
// TODO: Enable/Disable the drawer even being able to open/close
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Log.d(LOGTAG, "Drawer responding to menu click...");
if(item.getItemId() == android.R.id.home) Log.d(LOGTAG, "Drawer got it....");
if (mDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
GoalAdderFragment:
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
// Allow this fragment to handle toolbar menu items
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
// Set up the toolbar
((ActionBarActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
((ActionBarActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(android.R.drawable.ic_menu_close_clear_cancel);
((ActionBarActivity) getActivity()).getSupportActionBar().setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.title_addgoal));

case R.id.save:
return true;
case android.R.id.home:
return true;
default:

return false;
}
Solution:
This is the ultimate solution I ended up on, with the help of natario's answer below:
NavigationDrawerFragment:
private View.OnClickListener mOriginalListener;
public void setUp(int fragmentId, DrawerLayout drawerLayout, Toolbar toolbar) {
/* Rest of setting up code */
// Save the default listener after setting everything else up
mOriginalListener = mDrawerToggle.getToolbarNavigationClickListener();
}
// Tells the toolbar+drawer to switch to the up button or switch back to the normal drawer
public void toggleDrawerUse(boolean useDrawer) {
// Enable/Disable the icon being used by the drawer
mDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(useDrawer);
// Switch between the listeners as necessary
if(useDrawer)
mDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(mOriginalListener);
else
mDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Custom listener", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
Put this code into onCreate() of your Activity. Works well for me. Even using compileSdk 23 and higher.
drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
final Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
if(toolbar != null) {
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
toggle.syncState();
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); // show back button
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
onBackPressed();
}
});
} else {
//show hamburger
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
toggle.syncState();
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
drawer.openDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
});
}
}
});
It should work even for latest API 24.
In your activity onCreate() do this:
final Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
final DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
final ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawer, toolbar,
R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
final View.OnClickListener originalToolbarListener = toggle.getToolbarNavigationClickListener();
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
}
});
} else {
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(originalToolbarListener);
}
}
});
That's probably not what you would like to hear, but even from a conceptual point of view I would go for a new activity rather than a fragment.
Your main activity is strictly linked to the drawer, so loading a new fragment without any access to the drawer makes no sense to me (but feel free wait for other answers if you think so). A new activity would solve both problems, since it would have no drawer and could be a child of the main one.
Your side question looks spot on also. A "Add New" activity could nicely fit into the "full-screen dialog" visual pattern from the guidelines. See:
http://www.google.com/design/spec/components/dialogs.html#dialogs-full-screen-dialogs
This pattern has a "save", positive button on top-right, and a X. Conceptually, the X button is to cancel/abort a process, rather than navigating up some backstack. It means you are dismissing something without letting any action happen. This fits well for what you want to do.
From a design point of view, it's easily made by a new Activity, that can stay on top of others. Also, if the point of fragments is basically being able to represent two or more at once in tablets and bigger screen - again - I wouldn't be so happy with an old fragment on my left and an "Add New" fragment on the right.
Rather - on tablets - I would go for a floating dialog, as suggested by the guidelines.
http://www.google.com/design/spec/components/dialogs.html#dialogs-confirmation-dialogs
So full-screen activity with a X button for phones, and floating dialog (with buttons at the bottom) for tablets. This, to me, is the most guidelines-coherent approach.
I recommend reading the whole link. On the difference between <- and X,
The X differs from an Up arrow, which is used when the view’s state is constantly being saved or when apps have draft or autosave capabilities. For example, an Up arrow is used in Settings because all changes are committed immediately.
And also
Touching the X in this Settings example will discard all changes. Changes will be saved only upon touching Save.
The answer from #matusalem works great. I just had one bit to add to it - be careful because the drawer can also be opened by swiping in from the left side of the screen. For some, this may be desired, but for me I was disabling the drawer because it didn't make sense in any fragment but my main fragment. The swipe is easily disabled here -
Navigation drawer - disable swipe
This probably belongs in a comment to the answer, but I don't have enough reputation. My apologies.
I had same problem with switching between hamburger menu and back arrow inside same activity when changing fragments. Here is my working solution, hope it helps to someone.
Listener inside your activity:
private View.OnClickListener toolbarMenuListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//will be called only if toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false); !
Log.v(tag,"toggle onClick:"+v.getId()+" android.R.id.home:"+android.R.id.home);
onBackPressed();
}
};
Code onCreate() something like:
...
...
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
//set listener so you know when back on arrow is pressed
toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(toolbarMenuListener);
...
...
Part you are interested in with comments (Class returned is some of mine class, can set to be void):
/**
* Method to set up action bar drawer.
* #param enableBackDrawerIcon set true if want to show drawer back arrow,
* false to show hamburger menu.
* #param title shown next to drawer icon
*/
public BaseMenusActivity drawerSetupToggle(boolean enableBackDrawerIcon, String title) {
//NOTE: order of methods call is important!
// If you change order order of setDrawerIndicatorEnabled and setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled
// method calls it won't work, weird bugs will happen (like no icon at all)
if(enableBackDrawerIcon){
Log.v(tag,"show drawer back icon");
//hides hamburger menu and enables View.OnClickListener to be called
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
//show back arrow
if(getSupportActionBar()!=null)
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
} else {
Log.v(tag,"show hamburger menu");
//hide back arrow
if(getSupportActionBar()!=null)
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
//shows hamburger menu and prevents View.OnClickListener to be called
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
}
setTitle(title);
return this;
}
NOTE: order of called methods is important! Would be better if could just write it in 2 lines like this but WON'T WORK (at least for me):
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(!enableBackDrawerIcon);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(enableBackDrawerIcon);
If you are interested why order of method calls mess things up, look into implementation of those methods.
//This if block makes the menu back button to respond to clicks
//The onOptionsItemSelected fun for whatever reason was not capturing back menu clicks
if (toolbar != null) {
/* toggle = ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer_layout, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close)
toggle.syncState()
drawer_layout.setDrawerListener(toggle)*/
supportFragmentManager.addOnBackStackChangedListener(object : FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener {
override fun onBackStackChanged() {
if (supportFragmentManager.backStackEntryCount > 0) {
supportActionBar?.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true) // show back button
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(object : View.OnClickListener {
override fun onClick(v: View) {
onBackPressed()
}
})
} else {
//show hamburger
supportActionBar?.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false)
toggle.syncState()
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(object : View.OnClickListener {
override fun onClick(v: View) {
drawer_layout.openDrawer(GravityCompat.START)
}
})
}
}
})
}
You need to comment out "toggle = ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer_layout, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close)
toggle.syncState()
drawer_layout.setDrawerListener(toggle)" (4-7 lines) if you are using the auto generated Navigation layout in Android Studio, else the behavior of the back menu button will be erratic. That is what i did and it worked perfectly for me. Hope this helps someone
I want to hide back button when sliding menu is opened, otherwise to show it
How should I implement SlidingMenu OnOpenedListener?
I use this SlidingMenu with ActionBarSharlock.
Here is the solution, for those who are interested in.
Set OnOpenedListener and OnClosedListener to your SlidingMenu object
SlidingMenu menu = new SlidingMenu(this);
To show back button (sliding menu is closed)
menu.setOnOpenedListener(new OnOpenedListener() {
#Override
public void onOpened() {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
}
});
To hide back button (sliding menu is opened)
menu.setOnClosedListener(new OnOpenedListener() {
#Override
public void onClosed() {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
}
});
