A sliding menu for Android, as found in the Google+ or Facebook apps.

A sliding menu for Android, very much like the Google+ and Facebook apps have. That is, this one slides the activity title / action bar out of the way as well!

Based upon the great work done by stackoverflow user Scirocco (http://stackoverflow.com/a/11367825/361413), thanks a lot!

The XML parsing code comes from https://github.com/darvds/RibbonMenu, thanks!

Usage

Menus are created in xml as normal, adding text and possibly an icon.

In the activity where you want a SlideMenu, just instantiate one and call its show() method where appropriate, i.e. on app-icon click in action bar or on button click. The SlideMenu constructor will require you to have the calling class implement the SlideMenu callback to get notified about menu item clicks.

The sample activity shows how it all works.

Credit

Thanks go out to stackoverflow user scirocco (http://stackoverflow.com/users/1150188/scirocco) whose work we just slightly extended and also to David Scott for the XML parsing code in RibbonMenu (https://github.com/darvds/RibbonMenu) that we used to complete this implementation.

libslidemenu's Issues

menu hide does not animate back

Hi I am using your library and I have encountered a weird problem that occurs only in xperia devices , when I hide the menu the main activity doesn't animate back leaving a black screen on the place the menu use to be.

how can i use this to an activity without title bar?

how can i use this to an activity without title bar?

Slide from right

It'd be great to be able to choose to implement this drawer from the left and/or the right.

Android system bar covering the SlideMenu

I'm using LibSlideMenu on my Samsung Galaxy Note with Ice Cream Sandwich and the system bar is covering the top part of the SlideMenu.

A quick fix would be to check if the system bar is visible and scale down the SlideMenu of the size of the SystemBar.

Adding a custom layout instead of a list

This is a helpful library but is it possible to add a layout in place of list
Can you give a sample of that link

Sometimes make error at some devices

I refer similar code in stackoverflow, and it worked very well on my device(HTC raidar 4G, Nexus 7, Galaxy)

But If I use other phone(other htc phone, motorola atrix) it crashed. I track code and find that devices have different view.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11650847/decorview-child-framelayout
<- This issue has similar problem with me.

That thread said that remove NoTitleBar attribute, but it doesn't work to me.

So I asked here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12109512/decorview-child-framelayout-is-different-at-devices

and one said that do not use android.R.id.content since it is different with devices. Have you any idea about this? Thanks,

consider merging with ened/LibSlideMenu?

I was going to make a few additions to this project in order to be able to customize views and introduce non-clickable headers, when I found that Sebastian Roth (ened) had already made those customizations. I really quite like the changes he made apart from one minor edit which means that the menu will slide open a long way on tablet devices, which I've subsequently undone and posted here:
https://github.com/danieltwagner/LibSlideMenu.

The changes look much worse than they are in real life because indentation was changed. If you do a diff with whitespace ignored then you'll see that they are actually minimally invasive.

Sliding back does not work

Hello,
using your library but it does not slide back.
i have to click outside the menu or click the actionbar button.

how can i slide it back?

Slide to hide menu

This is a great library so far, but I miss a little feature.
If you look at the youtube or google+ app, it is possible to grab the main view and slide it back over the menu to hide it. Is it possible to implement this?

List becomes Hidden on orientation change

I love this library, but have noticed if the orientation changes whilst the menu is open the list is half hidden.

ClassCastException: LinearLayout casting to FrameLaout.

I found solution 👍

1. private static ViewGroup parent;

2. Converted all FrameLayout.LayoutParams to LayoutParams
   

3. parent = (ViewGroup) act.getWindow().getDecorView();

LibSlideMenu doesn't work with target sdks 14 and 15.

Thank you for making this menu available - it's awesome. Just wanted to add that it appears it doesn't work with sdks 14 and 15. Menu icon in upper left corner is not clickable (and no menu appears) when compiling with target sdk 14 and higher.

How is the correct mode to use this lib, with fragments or activities?

I think it's the first case, fragments, the correct mode was any MenuItem call a update of the master fragment.

If the correct mode was with activity, i think it's necessary have a master activity and all the other activities extends master activity.

How is the correct mode?
How i've to call the other fragment/activity by the onSlideMenuItemClick? Is it a intent?

[Question] How can i set menu width?

Hello,
Is there a way to set slide menu width?

Override isShown() method in your SlideMenu Class

Since slidemenu.isShown() method returns "true" even though menu was not shown. The below code(What I thought to be valid) ends up in exception since menu object is null.

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MENU) {
if(slideMenu.isShown())
slideMenu.hide();
}
}
