Action Bar (Toolbar) Icon - android

I have navigation drawer, in order to show it over Action bar, I made custom Toolbar View and set it as Action Bar. And now I have arrow icon which I can't change.
This is part of my Base Activity, I tried those methods, nothing changes:
protected void onCreateDrawer()
{
// R.id.drawer_layout should be in every activity with exactly the same id.
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tool_bar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
drawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle((Activity) this, drawerLayout, R.drawable.ic_drawer, 0, 0)
{
public void onDrawerClosed(View view)
{
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(R.string.app_name);
}
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView)
{
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Aaaaaaaaaaa");
}
};
drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(drawerToggle);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setLogo(R.drawable.ic_drawer);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
part of XML of MainActivity where I have Toolbar, and all content of Activity set in frame 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"
android:fitsSystemWindows="false">
<!-- The main content view -->
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/tool_bar"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frame_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize">
Navigation Drawer over Action bar works great, but, I can not change any of icon on Toolbar.
I set icon on toolbar before adding it like Action Bar and it works great, but no way that I can set title or something else with ActionBar/Toolbar.
Screenshot:

Use toolbar.setTitle("Aaaaaaaaa") instead of
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Aaaaaaaa");

Try like this.
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/custom_actionbar"
style="#style/ToolBarStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/transparent"
android:minHeight="#dimen/abc_action_bar_default_height_material">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/toolbar_title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:gravity="center"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
In Base Activity set your title to textview
Toolbar mToolbar =(Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.metro_toolbar_actionbar);
TextView mTitle = (TextView) mToolbar.findViewById(R.id.toolbar_title);
setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
mTitle.setText("Your text");

Displaying grid-layout in Navigation Drawer Layout?

I am beginner to android. I want to display a home page with four buttons and Navigation Drawer menu. I used GridLayout to display the four buttons. I don't know where to place the GridLayout code in activity_main.xml. Whether I want to use LinearLayout or what to do? Please help me.
activity.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">

android:text="#string/contact" />
</GridLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I attached all buttons and GridLayout in MainAcitvity.java.
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
Button organicbtn,newseedsbtn,tobenotedbtn,contactsbtn;
DrawerLayout drawer;
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle;
GridLayout gridLayout;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
organicbtn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.orgnicshopbutton);
newseedsbtn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.newseedsbutton);
tobenotedbtn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.tobenotedbutton);
contactsbtn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.contactbutton);
gridLayout=(GridLayout)findViewById(R.id.GridLayout2);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show();
}
});
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();
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
Have a look at Creating a NavigationDrawer in the android documentation. The DrawerLayout should have two child views. The first one is used for the regular content of the screen - in here you should put your buttons. The second one is used for the navigation drawer.
In pseudo xml it would look something like so:
<DrawerLayout>
<!-- main content -->
<GridLayout>
<Button>
<Button>
...
</GridLayout>
<!-- this goes into the navigation drawer -->
<LinearLayout>
<Button> <!-- nav button -->
<Button> <!-- another nav button -->
</LinearLayout>
</DrawerLayout>

Android DrawerLayout with custom Toolbar

My Activity code:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Overview overview = new Overview();
Intent intent = getIntent();
user.setUserName(intent.getStringExtra("Username"));
setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.mycontainer, overview)
.commit();
}
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_toolbar);
DrawerLayout drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawerLayout, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
NavigationView navView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navview);
navView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.actionbar_menu, menu);
return true;
}
// Toggle function for the navigational drawer
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item){
if(toggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)){
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
After adding this line:
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
My drawer dissapeared. So all I have left is my actionbar_menu.
My XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
tools:context=".SecondActivity.SecondActivity"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity="center"
android:id="#+id/mycontainer"
>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/my_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:elevation="4dp"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:id="#+id/navview"
app:menu="#menu/nav_menu"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header"
>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
So basically, how do I get both my actionbar, my DrawerLayout and a custom title to work? I have to disable the showTitleEnabled to set a custom title, but it makes my menu dissapear. So how do I fix this?
You can create a custom toolbar layout and include it in your XML instead of <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
and in your custom toolbar layout put a TextView.
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
Was missing. This fixes it

Toolbar not being shown in child activity

I am working on having a single navigation drawer for all the activities, so I thought to add it in BaseActivity and then inherit it in other activities wherever I need the navigation drawer and I did indeed succeed in getting the navigation drawer working but for some reason the toolbar is not being displayed in the child activities that inherit the BaseActivity, The I tried a lot things and checkout lot of questions on stack overflow but I could not really figure out what is the issue.
Here is the code: layout file
activity_base.xml
<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/DrawerLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
android:elevation="7dp">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/RecyclerView"
android:layout_width="320dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:scrollbars="vertical">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
I am using this layout file here in onCreate of BaseActivity:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_base);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.RecyclerView); mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true); // Letting the system know that the list objects are of fixed size
mAdapter = new NavigationFragmentAdapter(TITLES,ICONS,NAME,EMAIL,PROFILE); // Creating the Adapter of MyAdapter class(which we are going to see in a bit)
// And passing the titles,icons,header view name, header view email,
// and header view profile picture
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mAdapter); // Setting the adapter to RecyclerView
mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this); // Creating a layout Manager
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager); // Setting the layout Manager
Drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.DrawerLayout); // Drawer object Assigned to the view
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this,Drawer,toolbar,R.string.drawer_open,R.string.drawer_close){
#Override
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
super.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
// code here will execute once the drawer is opened( As I dont want anything happened whe drawer is
// open I am not going to put anything here)
}
#Override
public void onDrawerClosed(View drawerView) {
super.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
// Code here will execute once drawer is closed
}
}; // Drawer Toggle Object Made
Drawer.setDrawerListener(mDrawerToggle); // Drawer Listener set to the Drawer toggle
mDrawerToggle.syncState(); // Finally we set the drawer toggle sync State
}
Then I am inheriting this activity in other child activity (HomeActivity):
public class HomeActivity extends BaseActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
ViewGroup content = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.content_frame);
getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.activity_home, content, true);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
The xml file for HomeActivity:
<LinearLayout 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/home_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context="app.packman.activity.HomeActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/home_tab_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<include layout="#layout/content_home" />
<!-- other content of activity-->
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
the output screenshot of HomeActivity which has no toolbar (which is the problem I am facing):
Any suggestions will of great help
You can try add
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
in your FrameLayout

Setting a toolbar in a List Activity

I have a ListActivity that I want to use the toolbar in but I get the error can't resolve getSupportToolbar. Everything works fine in my main activity but here I get errors.
found this excerpt on an Android dev blog post. You have to use the toolbar as a standalone object and add your own items.
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.blah);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_awesome_toolbar);
// Set an OnMenuItemClickListener to handle menu item clicks
toolbar.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new Toolbar.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
// Handle the menu item
return true;
}
});
// Inflate a menu to be displayed in the toolbar
toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.your_toolbar_menu);
}
According to me, you haven't set the toolbar in your activity. First you have to set the app theme to#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar,
Then you have to set the custom toolbar in your MainActivity like
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tool_bar_main_activity);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
TextView toolbar_title = (TextView) toolbar.findViewById(R.id.title_toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayOptions(0, ActionBar.DISPLAY_SHOW_TITLE);
I hope this might solve your problem.
This is how I had set up a toolbar in my List Activity. I will post the layout file details
activity1.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#android:id/list" />
</LinearLayout>
toolbar_activity.xml

Toolbar buttons don't respond to touch when a Navigation Drawer is open

I'm working on a material design version of my app using the appcompat v7 libraries, and I've hit an issue with the navigation drawer. When it opens, buttons in the material design toolbar cease to function - any touch outside the navigation drawer just closes the drawer. A following is a gif of what I mean
Here is the xml layout I'm using for the activity:
<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">
<!-- The main content view -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/action_toolbar"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
android:elevation="4dp"
/>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/note_list_container"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<net.rymate.notes.ui.FloatingActionButton
android:id="#+id/fabbutton"
android:layout_width="72dp"
android:layout_height="72dp"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|right"
android:layout_marginBottom="16dp"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp" />
</FrameLayout>
<!-- The navigation drawer -->
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/cat_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:background="?catBackColour" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
And here is the onCreate code that initialises the drawer and the toolbar.
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
ROBOTO_LIGHT = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(), "Roboto-Light.ttf");
ROBOTO_LIGHT_ITALICS = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(), "Roboto-LightItalic.ttf");
setContentView(R.layout.activity_notes);
if (findViewById(R.id.note_container) != null) {
// The detail container view will be present only in the
// large-screen layouts (res/values-large and
// res/values-sw600dp). If this view is present, then the
// activity should be in two-pane mode.
mTwoPane = true;
// In two-pane mode, list items should be given the
// 'activated' state when touched.
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
//list.setActivateOnItemClick(true);
}
if (!mTwoPane) {
final FloatingActionButton mFab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fabbutton);
mFab.init(Color.parseColor("#1e90ff"));
mFab.setFabDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_action_new));
mFab.showFab();
mFab.setOnClickListener(this);
list = new NotesListFragment(mFab);
} else {
list = new NotesListFragment();
}
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.action_toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.note_list_container, list)
.commit();
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout); // the layout
mDrawerLinear = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.left_drawer);
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerShadow(R.drawable.drawer_shadow, GravityCompat.START);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
mDrawerLayout.setScrimColor(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.transparent));
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, /* host Activity */
mDrawerLayout, /* DrawerLayout object */
toolbar, /* toolbar */
R.string.drawer_open, /* "open drawer" description */
R.string.drawer_close /* "close drawer" description */
) {
/** Called when a drawer has settled in a completely closed state. */
public void onDrawerClosed(View view) {
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Rymate Notes");
supportInvalidateOptionsMenu();
}
/** Called when a drawer has settled in a completely open state. */
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
getSupportActionBar().setTitle("Categories");
supportInvalidateOptionsMenu();
}
};
// Set the drawer toggle as the DrawerListener
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerListener(mDrawerToggle);
pref = getSharedPreferences("rymatenotesprefs", MODE_PRIVATE);
mDrawerList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.cat_list);
mDrawerList.setOnItemClickListener(new DrawerItemClickListener());
mDbHelper = new NotesDbAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open();
if (mDbHelper.fetchAllNotes().getCount() == 0) {
IntroFragment fragment = new IntroFragment();
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.note_list_container, fragment)
.commit();
}
getCategories(); // calls a function which populates the listview
}
Is there a way to possibly fix this?
Seems that touch event is stolen by the shadow of the drawer, i.e DrawerLayout keeps intercepting the touch events, because Toolbar is part of the content view, unlike the ActionBar being on top of the decor view.
Possible work around is intercepting the touch event:
If it s between 0 (top) and Toolbar height (bottom), dispatch the event directly to the Toolbar object. Otherwise keep the normal behaviour.
Is same case for drawer toggle clicks?
Turns out Nikola Despotoski had the right idea - the touch event was stolen by the DrawerLayout. However instead of intercepting the touch event I just adjusted the activity layout like so:
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/action_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:elevation="4dp"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
app:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="?attr/actionBarSize" >
<!-- The main content view -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/note_list_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
<net.rymate.notes.ui.FloatingActionButton
android:id="#+id/fabbutton"
android:layout_width="72dp"
android:layout_height="72dp"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|right"
android:layout_marginBottom="16dp"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp" />
</FrameLayout>
<!-- The navigation drawer -->
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/cat_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="?catBackColour"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
</FrameLayout>
This has the intended effect of allowing touch events to be registered by the Toolbar rather than the DrawerLayout.
