Disable dark fading in Navigation Drawer

Question

Is there a way to disable the dark fading effect for the background view in the Navigation Drawer View in Android?

Answer 1

You can use setScrimColor(int color) method. As default color is used 0x99000000. So if you don't want faded background, set transparent color in this method.

mDrawerLayout.setScrimColor(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.transparent));

Answer 2

Addition to koso's answer: you can directly call the colors from Color class like this:

mDrawerLayout.setScrimColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);

Answer 3

drawerLayout.setScrimColor(Color.parseColor("#99000000"));

// For dark fading effect

                            or

drawerLayout.setScrimColor(Color.parseColor("#33000000"));

// For light fading effect

                            or

drawerLayout.setScrimColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);

// For no Fading

Answer 4

You can set a custom shadow:

mDrawerLayout.setDrawerShadow(R.drawable.drawer_shadow, GravityCompat.START);
