Hello.
I have not found in tutorials a clear "lesson" to make menus - for sheer beginners - but several ready2use great menus (sliding, animating, Popup, Side swipe.....)
So I am trying to go ahead and the first thing I meet is that I suppose I must have the main menu in the Main Activity Module and as result of event handler for the menu I must trig the second activity (first menu option), v.gr.:
B4X:
StartActivity(Activity2)


Appart from the "Two activities example" in the B4A-Tutorials.pdf, I have not found much help.
Could you please suggest a good "thread" for a complete beginner?

Thank you very much for your help.

You need to be more precise on what exactly you want or need.
In Android there are several means to implement this.
You might have a look at the Beginner's Guide.
And a more specific thread Different examples with 2 layouts, it doesn't use menus but could be interesting for you.
Personally I don't like menus, but prefer toolboxes with buttons.
