Edit: Cross platform example based on B4XPages
A class that implements a sliding menu. Unlike the nice jfeinstein SlidingMenu library the drawer covers the activity instead of pushing it. It is similar to the various design support navigation drawer libraries.
Instructions:
1. Initialize the drawer object:
300dip = left menu width
2. Load the "Activity layout" to the drawer:
3. Load the menu layout:
4. Handle back key (B4A):
5. Handle resize (B4i):
The attached example is based on AppCompat. However you can use it in any project you like. You can also customize its behavior. The code is not too complicated.
Updates:
- 1.55 - New StateChanged (Open As Boolean) event.
- 1.53 - Adds support for B4J (without gestures). No need to update if using with B4A or B4i.
- 1.52 - Clicks on the drawer panel are not passed to the underlying panel.
- 1.51 - GestureEnabled property.
B4XDrawer is distributed as a b4xlib. It is an internal library.
[B4X] B4XPages + B4XDrawer
B4XDrawer v1.53 adds support for B4J. This is a good opportunity to create a B4XPages example using B4XDrawer. It does require some configuration so pay attention. The example is based on the three pages example...
