iOS Question [Solved] iSideMenu with B4XPages?

[John Naylor]

I can run the iSideMenu demo project which is a regular B4i app just fine but when I try to implement it in B4XPages I'm struggling.

Errors any time I try to initialize.

Both fail....

    smc.Initialize(lp, Root , rp)

' or

    smc.Initialize(lp, Main.NavControl , rp)

I'm looking for a left & right drawer solution that works with B4XPages.

Thanks!

Use B4XDrawer it’s simpler !

I would but I need a left & right drawer and even using this modified version the right drawer isn't available in B4i....

Try to add the side menu in Application_Start, as done here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/isidemenu.46914/post-290466

Slightly different but I'm still seeing an error...

Can you make a small project with this and upload it?

Of course, please bear with me!

Sample project as requested.

Your code is wrong. Carefully go over this code: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/isidemenu.46914/#post-290466

Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)
    Dim nc As NavigationController
    nc.Initialize("nc")
    NavControl = nc
    
    Dim lp As Page
    lp.Initialize("lp")
    lp.RootPanel.Color = Colors.Red
    lp.RootPanel.LoadLayout("test")
    Dim rp As Page
    rp.Initialize("rp")
    rp.RootPanel.Color = Colors.Green
    rp.RootPanel.LoadLayout("test")
    smc.Initialize(lp, NavControl , rp)
    App.KeyController = smc
        
    smc.LeftMenuMaxWidth = 80%x
    smc.RightMenuMaxWidth = 80%x
    Dim PagesManager As B4XPagesManager
    PagesManager.Initialize(NavControl)
End Sub

Thank's as always @Erel! - I see where I was going wrong now!
