NavigationView and custom Layout
Solution 1:
Here's how I solved it, and worked perfectly:
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/navigation"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include layout="@layout/nav_header" />
<ListView
android:id="@+id/lst_menu_items"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
Solution 2:
Yes You can .... As I have done ... Just take your custom layout inside the NavigationView
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
android:id="@+id/drawer"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/navView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start">
<ListView
android:entries="@array/test"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
The above code work for me...
But don't forget to remove app:menu
from NavigationView
. Otherwise it will overlap your custom view on the menu items.
