Shift the screen to right on click of menu; like facebook
android, android-layout, android-side-navigation, facebook
Solution
This UI Pattern is currently being referred to as Side Navigation and discussed in some detail here:
http://www.androiduipatterns.com/2012/06/emerging-ui-pattern-side-navigation.html
The article also links to several projects that have implemented this navigation:
https://github.com/korovyansk/android-fb-like-slideout-navigation
https://github.com/darvds/RibbonMenu
https://bitbucket.org/jfeinstein10/slidingmenu/overview
https://github.com/Gregadeaux/android-fly-in-app-navigation
It is worth reading the article for its discussion about the issues with this kind of navigation also, though.
Problem
In my application, I want to have behavior like facebook app wherein on click of icon I'd like to shift the whole screen towards right and display some menus on the left as shown below: Before Clicking Menu Button After Clicking Menu Button One way is to have a layout with those menu in black color and set its visibility to `gone` But in that case, the shifting animation won't be there like it is there in facebook. So is there any way we can do this?
