remove or hide header navigationView in android - android

i am using design 23.1.1 in my project. i want drawer without header. just menu items are enough. i dont add any header view(programmatically or in XML). but in drawer i have empty header. please help me how to remove this empty header.
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="right"
app:menu="#menu/drawer"
/>

View headerView= LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.drawer_header, null);
navigationView.addHeaderView(headerView);
navigationView.getHeaderView(0).setVisibility(View.GONE);
i use dummy layout. and solved my problem but i think it is ridiculous.

If You want to remove header:
navigationView.removeHeaderView(navigationView.getHeaderView(0));
Of cource if You have more haeders You have to do this in some loop to remove them all. 0 is index of the first one.

try to add this to your style file <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>
and remove app:headerLayout from navigationView xml.
and add this to your navigationView xml :
android:layout_marginTop ="#dimen/abc_action_bar_default_height_material"
it worked perfect for me.

To remove it permanently:
The Layout that contains the NavigationView widget is like this:
<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"/>
Just remove the app:headerLayout line from it:
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main"

I want to change the icon in the navigation view

<item
android:id="#+id/nav_day"
android:checkable="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_weekly_calendar"
android:textColor="#ff00ff"
android:title="Day Planner!" />
I want to know how to change the color of the icon of the menu item I get from the navigation view. I know that you can use ItemIconTint to change at once.
I want to use the original color of the icon as it is. What should I do?
<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"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
app:itemIconTint="#android:color/primary_text_dark"
app:itemTextColor="#android:color/white"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer"
/>
yourNavigationView.setItemIconTintList(null);

<layout_gravity="start"> doesn't work on NavigationView?

I'm trying to make a Navigation Drawer, and inside the NavigationView I've added the layout_gravity="start" attribute, but it wont hide the View. this is my code:
<RelativeLayout ... >
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
app:menu="#menu/navigation_menu"></android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
</RelativeLayout>
What could be wrong? Thanks.
If you intend for the NavigationView to behave as a drawer, then the root View should be <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>, instead of <RelativeLayout>
I hope this works for you because layout_gravity cannot be used inside Relativelayout.
<androidx.drawerlayout.widget.DrawerLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
app:menu="#menu/navigation_menu"></android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
</androidx.drawerlayout.widget.DrawerLayout>

Android NavigationView set menu from XML programmatically

How do I create Android Navigation View menu from XML programmatically?
Using design support library you can add Navigation view easily.
Add below code in xml:
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#android:color/white"
app:headerLayout="#layout/layout_drawer_header"
app:itemTextColor="#000000"
app:menu="#menu/global"></android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
and then create a menu file for navigation

Navigation View Multiline Text

I have an app with a Navigation View for my DrawerLayout. I add programmatically items in the menu because I receive the information over the network. But sometimes, an item name can be very long and is just cut off with even having the ellipsize icon "..."
Does someone have an idea on how to have multiline for my menu items?
Thanks
Override design_navigation_menu_item.xml from the Android Support Design Library and modify the things you need (set android:ellipsize="end" and android:maxLines="2")
Your res/layout/design_navigation_menu_item.xml should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<merge xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<CheckedTextView
android:id="#+id/design_menu_item_text"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:drawablePadding="#dimen/design_navigation_icon_padding"
android:gravity="center_vertical|start"
android:textAppearance="#style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body2"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:maxLines="2" />
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/design_menu_item_action_area_stub"
android:inflatedId="#+id/design_menu_item_action_area"
android:layout="#layout/design_menu_item_action_area"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</merge>
However, you should just ellipsize the text to properly follow the Material Design guidelines.
You have not to override anything to just ellipsize the text:
Add a new style to the styles.xml
Set the new style to the NavigationView
res / values / styles.xml
<style name="TextAppearance">
<item name="android:ellipsize">end</item>
</style>
res / layout / activity_main.xml
<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"
app:theme="#style/TextAppearance" />
Just add app:itemMaxLines="2" attribute on the NavigationView tag like this:
<com.google.android.mayerial.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"
app:itemMaxLines="2" />
NOTE: Material dependency is--
implementation 'com.google.android.material.material:1.0.0'
Add a style to your NavigationDrawer and then include 2 lines in the style.
<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:background="#drawable/estilo"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:itemTextColor="#color/white"
app:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer" />
<style name="NavigationDrawerStyle">
<item name="android:lines">2</item>
</style>
Check out this answer. Default android slide menu is not very flexible, most likely you will have to create your custom view.
I really this tutorial from AndroidHive.
I had the same problem and I tried and tried, There was no progress with Menu, I don't say it was impossible but I couldn't find a way to break MenuItem lines.
But if you don't insist on using Menu I suggest you to use a ListView or RecyclerView in your layout like this:
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_draw_header">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/rv"
android:layout_marginTop="160dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
As you can see there is no special thing to explain, no menu, just a RecyclerView, layout_marginTop value is same as header height, I'm sure you know the rest of the story (How to fire up RecyclerView), This approach gives more flexibility to NavigationView menu items (actually RecyclerView items).
If my answer is not clear enough to you let me know.
Here is the result:
You shouldn't change that.
Check out the material design guideline: https://material.io/design/components/navigation-drawer.html#anatomy
Add a style in your NavigationDrawer that declares the number of lines as 'two', like so:
<style name="NavigationDrawerStyle">
<item name="android:lines">2</item>
</style>
and in your view:
<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:background="#drawable/estilo"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:itemTextColor="#color/white"
app:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer" />

Change Navigation Drawer Icon and Text Spacing

I am wondering how do we change the spacing between the icon and the text?
Is it doable?
Any thoughts?
Thank you
Add the following line to app\src\main\res\values\dimens.xml file. No need to add new layout.
<dimen tools:override="true" name="design_navigation_icon_padding">5dp</dimen>
I added one line to xml: app:itemIconPadding="#dimen/space24" and it`s worked
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#android:color/white"
android:clipToPadding="false"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/space48"
app:headerLayout="#layout/layout_nav_header"
app:insetForeground="#color/black"
**app:itemIconPadding="#dimen/space24"**
app:itemBackground="#drawable/background_selected_menu"
app:itemHorizontalPadding="#dimen/horizontal_padding_on_nav_drawer"
app:menu="#menu/drawer">
If you change in your dimens.xml file you'll change on all of your project. I suggest you to change locally, just in NavigationView, like Vadym purpouse. Or you can change there like that:
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
app:itemIconPadding="4dp"
../>
This worked perfectly to me, and you can just change the value of the padding to everthing that you want.
You will need another layout which you will inflate. In the layout, you can set the margin to what you want. Inflater allows you to adapt a layout to a view. check this out http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/LayoutInflater.html
or this
http://khajanpndey.blogspot.com.ng/2012/12/android-layoutinflater-tutorial.html
Whichever view you are using, checkout how you can inflate the view.
Hope this help.
Here is the solution -
app:itemIconPadding="15dp"
Example:
<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" android:fitsSystemWindows="false" app:itemIconPadding="15dp" app:itemIconSize="28dp" app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main2" app:itemIconTint="#color/navigation_item_text_color" app:menu="#menu/activity_main_drawer" app:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle" app:itemBackground="#color/white" />
