<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/drawer_nav"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"
app:headerLayout="@layout/drawer_header"
app:menu="@menu/menu_drawer"
/>
I am using android.support.design.library
for material design.
What I want is to hide some menu items when the user is not logged-in.
Now I have trouble to get the menu item in NavigationView
.
I have tried:
MenuItem logoutItem = (MenuItem) mNavigationView.findViewById(R.id.menu_logout);
logoutItem.setVisible(false);
But it's not working.
How can I do this?
Thanks.
You can get that by method of NavigationView.getMenu()
Menu menuNav = mNavigationView.getMenu();
Then you can find specific item by
MenuItem logoutItem = menuNav.findItem(R.id.menu_logout);
See Official documentation for NavigationView
I think you should first get the menu like this:
navigationView.getMenu().findItem(R.id.login).setVisible(false);
The main aspect of this code is calling navigationView.getMenu() to get the menu from this you will have a reference of current inflated menu and call findViewById() and after that you can whatever you what.
For Group of item ex:-
<group
android:id="@+id/group_1"
android:checkableBehavior="single"
android:visible="false">
...
and then you can control this using :-
navigationView.getMenu().setGroupVisible(R.id.group_1, true)
just use below way
nav_draw = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_draw);
nav_draw.getMenu().findItem(R.id.navigation_item_1).setVisible(false);
