Android Question How can I load different panels with buttons

Hello,

I am trying to create a dashboard where on the left side I have 5 buttons. When the App starts I would like to show a homescreen (Default view)
When I click for example on button 2 I would like to load a panel on top of the homescreen.
Similarly I would like to do it for other buttons. Every button is linked to one panel.

Can someone point me to an example or show me how can I do this ?

Thank you

Hi RushilD:

You can simply add the panels to your layout, and set their "visible" property to false.
Then, in the button_click event, set it to true.

i.e. (not tested)
B4X: 
...
pnlsArray = Array As Panel(Panel0, Panel1, Panel3, ...)
 
...

Private Sub Button3_Click
  'Hide any other visible panel
    For i = 0 To pnlsArray.Length - 1
        pnlsArray(i).visibility= false
    Next
  Panel3.visible = true
End Sub

Jose Thank you for reply.

For example (below image is just an example).

There are button on the left side. Every time I click on a particular button the black rectangle area will load / display a new panel linked to the button
So I will have 5 button and 5 panels.

Every panel will be unique in it own meaning it will have different information.

For me, I create a big panel, and based on the menu item that's clicked, I remove and load new layout in that big panel ( content area.)

Check these demo and other tutorial on my YouTube channel.

Mcqueccu thank you for your reply. I want to do something similar.

When you say "load new layout in that big content panel (content area)"

Do you load the complete layout or only just the panel in the content area ?
If it's only the panel in the content area can you share some example how I can do this ?

Mcqueccu OK understood. Thank you so much.

Just one more doubt. Second layout would also contain the buttons on the left correct ? So that when it is loaded I can switch again to the first one similarly

No, the buttons on the left (menu) will be static. It wont change or be removed
