onNavigationItemSelected not getting called
I solved my question , just simply change the order in my activity_main.xml .I have a LinearLayout viewgroup and NavigationView in my DrawerLayout viewgroup , at first the NavigationView is the first in my viewgroup and now I change the order , the first one is the LinearLayout and the second is NavigationView , and it work as it suppose to be . Dear!!!
But can someone tell me why it happend ? Does it matter the view order in a viewgroup regardless the display sequence .
I too had this issue and I finally figured out what was wrong, I initially created a sample project with navigation drawer and the main activity xml was as below,
<include layout="@layout/app_bar_main" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" /><android.support.design.widget.NavigationView android:id="@+id/nav_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main" app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer" />
But in the actual app I made I did a mistake like this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent"android:fitsSystemWindows="true"tools:openDrawer="start"><android.support.design.widget.NavigationView android:id="@+id/nav_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main" app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer" /><LinearLayout...../></android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
I had a LinearLayout below the NavigationView which was the issue.
Then I did this, everything started to work fine.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent"android:fitsSystemWindows="true"tools:openDrawer="start"><LinearLayout...../><android.support.design.widget.NavigationView android:id="@+id/nav_view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main" app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer" /></android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
Key was to put the NavigationView at last. Weird that UI was not disturbed but callback was.
The Navigation Drawer help say this:
The main content view (the FrameLayout above) must be the first child in the DrawerLayout because the XML order implies z-ordering and the drawer must be on top of the content.
regards to this example:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/drawer_layout" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"> <!-- The main content view --> <FrameLayout android:id="@+id/content_frame" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" /> <!-- The navigation drawer --> <ListView android:id="@+id/left_drawer" android:layout_width="240dp" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" android:choiceMode="singleChoice" android:divider="@android:color/transparent" android:dividerHeight="0dp" android:background="#111"/></android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
So this is the explanation, what is kind of annoying is if you have the wrong layout order as a result of an auto-generated template. I have faced this kind of "problems" with Android Studio a few times and is so fustrating.
