I trying to have dividers between items in my NavigationView, I tried with DividerItemDecoration but it didn't work exactly as I wanted.
MainActivity layout:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!-- As the main content view, the view below consumes the entire
space available using match_parent in both dimensions. -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:customTypeface="#string/font_lato_light"
app:itemTextColor="#color/drawer_text_color_selector"
app:itemTextAppearance="#style/TextViewBody"
app:itemIconTint="#color/mainBlue"
app:itemBackground="#drawable/menu_item_bg"
app:menu="#menu/drawer_view"/>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
and this is my menu
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<item android:title="#string/historico" >
<menu>
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_historico"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/historico" />
</menu>
</item>
<item android:title="#string/pagamento">
<menu>
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_pagamento"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/pagamento" />
</menu>
</item>
<item android:title="#string/definicoes">
<menu>
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_terms"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/terms" />
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_lang"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/alterar_idioma" />
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_pass"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/gestao_pass" />
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_ped"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/gestao_ped" />
<item

<item
android:id="#+id/menu_end_session"
android:icon="#drawable/user"
android:title="#string/terminar_sessao" />
</menu>
</item>
This is the result.

Notice some items have bold texts and some items have regular texts.
Why is that happening?
I'm using Material Design 3.
The solution
<style name="styleName" parent="TextAppearance.Material3.LabelLarge">
<item name="fontFamily">#font/font_regular</item>
</style>
Then add this inside NavigationView
app:itemTextAppearance="#style/styleName"
In my app I want an expandable list view, only one item and expandable list item comes from mysql database, with a click on the item it opens a fragment. I have searched many answers, but nothing work for me, I want when clicking on a category the list shows which data comes from a database. And when clicking on any item it works like a drawer item click.
I want this category as expandable listview.

There is library named MaterialDrawer.
It is really simple to use and it can satisfy your expectations.
I tried to set margin to default navigation drawer's "divider" attribute. I found many approach in Stackoverflow form but none of the answers are adequate.
I could create a custom navigation drawer list without using /menu/activity_main_drawer.xml. That looks like what I want. But I have concerns about the performance of the application.
I want to add margin to default divider. Is there a way to customize default navigation drawer divider?
That is my customized divider. Everything is perfect.
That is the default navigation drawer's divider which I could not give any margin.

I know it's been a while, but for anyone that might stumble upon this, I had the same issue and resolved it like this.
Where you define the navigation view, you can just set padding horizontal, which will set a padding for the entire navigation view. This will apply to the dividers as well.
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigationView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingHorizontal="24dp">
You can create a drawable named menu_divider.xml in your resources folder:
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="#c0c0c0"
android:left="16dp"
android:right="16dp" />
and set your navigation view to use it:
<style name="ThemeOverlay.App.NavigationView" parent="">
<item name="android:listDivider">#drawable/menu_divider</item>
</style>
Just add this in the drawer layout:
app:dividerInsetEnd="25dp"
app:dividerInsetStart="57dp"
Like below:
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
app:dividerInsetEnd="25dp"
app:dividerInsetStart="57dp"
app:elevation="32dp"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main"
app:itemIconTint="#color/gray"
app:itemTextColor="#color/gray"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer">
In my app i want to change the navigation view menu background, but i dont know how to do this. All posts i have watched explains how to change each menu item background, but all i need is to change the entire background of the menu.
This is what i want to change, the entire white background:
activity_main_drawer.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item android:id="#+id/nav_camara" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_camera"
android:title="Import" />
<item android:id="#+id/nav_gallery" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:title="Gallery" />
<item android:id="#+id/nav_slideshow" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_slideshow"
android:title="Slideshow" />
<item android:id="#+id/nav_manage" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_manage"
android:title="Tools" />
</group>
<item android:title="Communicate">
<menu>
<item android:id="#+id/nav_share" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_share"
android:title="Share" />
<item android:id="#+id/nav_send" android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_send"
android:title="Send" />
</menu>
</item>
</menu>
Is there anyway to change the white background from the activity_main_drawer layout?
activity_main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true" tools:openDrawer="start">
<include layout="#layout/app_bar_main" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start" android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main" app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
Thanks in advance.
You can set background to your NavigationView to change its color like below (set to app_white ) & for header set any color as a background of drawer_header_layout.
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/adcl_navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#color/app_white"
app:headerLayout="#layout/drawer_header_layout"
app:itemIconTint="#color/app_secondary_text"
app:itemTextColor="#color/app_secondary_text"
app:menu="#menu/menu_drawer"
app:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
just add android:background="#color/yourColor" to the <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView.
I'm designing a native navigation drawer in Android Studio.
I can't see the drawer in my preview because it is sitting left of the activity, out of range of the preview.
For now I'm using a testlayout.xml file to see my changes, but a lot of times I forget to copy paste them into the right activity.
Is there a way to preview the drawer layout?
If you want to be able to preview the drawer layout / navigation bar
If you are following the tutorial at https://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/nav-drawer.html
You can put your listview for the nav drawer in a different xml file in the /layout folder, then include it in the drawer layout xml. Means you can edit it in the drawer_layout file and be able to see it properly
layout/drawer_layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ListView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="280dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:background="#color/nav_drawer_background_color"/>
Then in the navbar
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!-- The main content view -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</FrameLayout>
<!-- The navigation drawer -->
<include
android:id="#+id/listView"
layout="#layout/drawer_layout"/>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
To see NavigationView preview add tools namespace to your drawer layout:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
then add attribute tools:openDrawer equal to gravity of layout_gravity value of your Navigation view, for example
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:openDrawer="left">
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="left"
app:headerLayout="#layout/navigation_header_main"
app:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavigationItemStyleLight"
app:menu="#menu/navigation_main_menu"/>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:showIn="navigation_view">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_camera"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_camera"
android:title="Import" />
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_gallery"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:title="Gallery" />
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_slideshow"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_slideshow"
android:title="Slideshow" />
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_manage"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_manage"
android:title="Tools" />
</group>
<item android:title="Communicate">
<menu>
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_share"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_share"
android:title="Share" />
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_send"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu_send"
android:title="Send" />
</menu>
</item>
Just Add
tools:showIn="navigation_view"
You can use NavigationView to get its preview on AndroidStudio, Its much better and easier to implement then the old NavigationDrawer.
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<include
layout="#layout/prof_app_bar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:itemTextColor="#color/text_head_color"
app:itemIconTint="#null"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main2"
app:menu="#menu/professional_menu" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
Define the menu in navigationmenu.xml place it in menu resource folder:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single"
android:id="#+id/top_menu">
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_setting"
android:icon="#drawable/accountsettings"
android:title="#string/paccount_settingss" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_expertise"
android:icon="#drawable/professional"
android:title="#string/pexpertise" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_comu"
android:icon="#drawable/communication"
android:title="#string/pcomunication" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_change_pass"
android:icon="#drawable/changepasswd"
android:title="#string/pchange_pass" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_change_lang"
android:icon="#drawable/changelang"
android:title="#string/pchange_lang"
android:visible="true"/>
</group>
<group android:checkableBehavior="single"
android:id="#+id/middle_menu">
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_about_us"
android:icon="#drawable/aboutus"
android:title="#string/about_us" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_feedback"
android:icon="#drawable/feedback"
android:title="#string/feedback"
android:visible="false"/>
<item
android:id="#+id/nav_privacy_policy"
android:icon="#drawable/privacy"
android:title="#string/privacy_policy" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_faq"
android:icon="#drawable/faq"
android:visible="false"
android:title="#string/faq" />
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_contact_us"
android:icon="#drawable/contactus"
android:title="#string/contact_us" />
</group>
<group android:checkableBehavior="single"
android:id="#+id/bottom_menu">
<item
android:id="#+id/pnav_sign_out"
android:icon="#drawable/signout"
android:title="#string/sign_out" />
</group>
</menu>
And, for getting click events use this:-
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(yourItemclickListener);
