Android Open Menu from a button
Is there a way for a button to call a submenu? I currently have a menu where if they select one of the options it opens a submenu, however I want to be able to start the submenu from the Button widget instead of the Menu object. Thanks! I am not necessarily recommending this, but I was able to call the submenu programatically. First, in the override of onCreateOptionsMenu I stored the menu parameter to a private Menu variable in the activity. Then, I was able to simply do the following from the onClick(): MyActivity.this.openOptionsMenu(); // activity's onCreateOptionsMenu gets called
