You can put submenus in an LinearLayout and add play with View.VISIBLE/View.GONE in onClickListener
It's a simple example.
you should complete it by yourself.
in xml.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/attachments_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button
android:id="@+id/btn_menu1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:text="Menu1"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/subview_menu1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:visibility="gone"
>
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="S1"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="S2"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="S3"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:text="Menu2"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:text="Menu3"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
</LinearLayout>
in btn_menu1 OnClickListener
public void onClick(View v) {
if (subview_menu1.isShown()) {
subview_menu1.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
else{
subview_menu1.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
