navigation-drawer

I wanted to set the background color of my Navigation drawer in java but it seems as setBackgroundColor and all similar methods have no effect. Only the XML line android:background="@color/mycolor" is working. If remove the xml line and try one of the methods the drawer just stays transparent. Any ideas? In your activity_main.xml include the following <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView android:id="@+id/navigation_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" app:headerLayout="@layout/navigation_drawer_header" app:menu="

I want to make my background Activity a little bit smaller while opening the Navigation Drawer , Simulate the effect that exists in the Airbnb application. I guess the best explanation would be a screenshot: But the point is not to make the View just smaller, but to make it an animation that is synchronized to the Drawer Open/Close animation. So if you started to open the Drawer an in the middle decided to stop and go back, the background Activity scale will be affected accordingly. How can this be done using the build in DrawerLayout? Is there some implementation for this? You can perform

Basically I liked the background used by Mr. Jonathan Lee for Navigation Drawer header back ground in google official link http://www.google.com/design/spec/patterns/navigation-drawer.html#navigation-drawer-content So I wanted to reproduce something similar inspired by that.

But the question is, what should be the dimensions and pixels so that it matches different kind of devices? The above link has guidelines for icons and margins, but I haven't seen any dimensions mentioned for that background.

I am trying to add the navigation drawer in my app.. Everything is working fine But now I still got the arrow icon although I replaced it with the ic_drawer from Android? Here's my code: private ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout); ExpandableListView mDrawerList = (ExpandableListView) findViewById(R.id.left_drawer); mDrawerLayout.setDrawerShadow(R.drawable.drawer_shadow,

I have created MainActivity with NavigationView . When Activity is opened I want to automatically select the first item in the navigation drawer and open Fragment under that item. I've searched a lot but didn't find any proper solutions. What is the proper way to do this ? Main Activity : public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements Config { private NavigationView navigationView; private DrawerLayout drawerLayout; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); Toolbar toolbar =

I have a simple android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar and all I am trying to do is to open a NavigationDrawer by pressing the "hamburger" icon in the top left corner. The "hamburger" button is visible, and when I start to pull from the left I see the animation on the button but pressing the button does not open/close the NavigationDrawer as I expect. I have followed the [Google Documentation][1] and still am not able to figure this out. Sorry for any confusion, below is the simplified code I am currently attempting to use: public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements View
