How to show/Hide Navigation Drawer programmatically
to Close Drawer:
drawer.CloseDrawer((int)GravityFlags.Left);
to Open Drawer:
drawer.OpenDrawer((int)GravityFlags.Left);
Grab a reference to the DrawerLayout
and call closeDrawer(int) to close it and openDrawer(int) to open it. The int
parameter refers to the gravity. In your case it should be GravityCompat.LEFT
/ GravityCompat.START
, because accordingly to the screenshot you posted, your DrawerLayout
open and close on the left.
To open the Drawer
DrawerLayout drawer = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.openDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
To close the drawer
DrawerLayout drawer = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
