alloy-widget-drawermenu's Issues

problem with SDK 3.5.0 and later

Hello and thanks to this widget .
I noticed that the widget does not work if you use an SDK 3.5.0 and later !
do you have any solution ?

Recalculation of width

Hi Ricardo!
I've been having some issues with the width recalculation, and found out that this line is useless:
if (OS_ANDROID)
newWidth /= Ti.Platform.displayCaps.logicalDensityFactor;

In android, by just using Ti.Platform.displayCaps.logicalDensityFactor works just fine;
In fact, it messes up with the width of the main container if you divide the new width with the logical density factor.

Cand you explain exactly why this is set?
In my case it was safe to remove it and I can pull a request to merge my changes, unless we can figure out why is that line important!

Saludos!

add multiple views and switch between views

how to switch between views on item click from slide menu

Centering contents inside of the menu

I've been having issues centering labels and imagines in the menu container. It seems that this is occurring because the width of the menu is greater than the display area of the menu on the device screen. This leads to everything being offset to the right, or on some large screen sizes, not being displayed at all.

Demos failing when launching...

Hi

This widget looks like what I need. I have found many with classic code - but I really want to use Alloy instead ;-)

I have downloaded the project and tried to run the demos on iPhone. However, they fail at the same place in index.js:

$.drawermenu.addEventListener('open', function menuOpen () {
Ti.API.info("Menu opened");
});

The error is (here from tishadow - but it is the same if run directly):

[ERROR] [iphone, 7.1, 192.168.42.38] TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function (evaluating '$.drawermenu.addEventListener("open", function() {
__log.info("Menu opened");
})')

I have tried the "demo" app inside the project. I also tried to use the "ActionBar Demo" - for Android emulator (using titanium_17_WVGA854). It failed either with a timeout or with "Not enough free space on the device". Then I tried to enable iPhone in tiapp.xml - but that fails with the same error as above?

What am I missing to make this run?

I'am on Mac OS 10.9.3 and Studio 3.2.3

Switching views in drawermainview from external controller in iOS

Hello, is it possible to replace current view loaded into drawermainview from controller other than index.js? I've got a controller with a button, and its eventlistener with:

$.drawermenu.drawermainview.add(myView.getView());

which doesn't work.

Does not working with Windows

If I use windows instead of views, it won't work.

Screen rotation

On android real phone or emulator.
If you change the screen orientation while the app is loading (on splash screen) you get the following error
Location:

Message:

Actionbar demo

Hi Ricardo,
I am trying to use your widget as actionbar in Android.

It doesn't show me the icon in the Action Bar.
Do you have some suggestions?

Multiple views Android

Hi,
I have used drawer menu to remove the tabgroup from the app, and have a sliding menu. I have multiple views in one , on click of one menu item i hide the present view and show the new one. But at this time the menu icon is not clickable. Is there something m missing to do?

Hi Ricardo,

lock landscape mode for Android

I tried locking landscape for Android

tries editing android XML

also, tried these tweaks

Ti.Gesture.addEventListener('orientationchange', function(e) {

Ti.Android.currentActivity.setRequestedOrientation(Ti.Android.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);

});
$.home.orientationModes = [Titanium.UI.PORTRAIT];

works perfect for screen that do not have drawer menu , but any screen that is part of drawer menu goes to landscape and sometimes even app restarts or crashes

any idea what I am doing wrong here?
