Can show up to 7 items.

B4A project is attached. Class is supported by B4J and B4i as well. Depends on XUI and BitmapCreator libraries.

Note that in your project you "try" to add 10 items (For i = 1 To 10)
True. I added more items as a test. It ignores the 8th and above items.

Now it is needed to add images inside the hexagons; who will do it?
Shouldn't be too difficult to do. There are several ways to add images. If the images are small so you don't need to deal with clipping then the simplest way is to add ImageViews in the same way that the labels are added.

It is also not too complicated to deal with clipping. It can be done by drawing with bc.DrawPath2 and a BCBrush that is based on a BitmapCreator.

As you know, I'm lazy :D, so I used a single image and I didn't manage the labels (superimpose them on the ImageViews or set a LabelsOnly property, for example).

Thanks Erel! In B4I a number appears instead of the icon.

I have one of the hexmenu buttons that opens a browser using
B4X:
StartActivity(xph.OpenBrowser("http://mechanicalpowergen.com"))
when I press back the button text disappears when I press any other button in hexmenu.
