Hello Star-Dust! Nice a set menu, this is exactly what I was looking for! But I have a question, How do the menu return to the first position? I put it in the bottomenu1.position, but that does not work.

 

[Star-Dust]

I have updated the code to version 1.1

Now you can set the position or simply read it with BottoMenu.Position

Tip: Create a single thread with [B4X] prefix and post the library as a b4xlib. It will be easier for you to maintain.

I will do it, unfortunately I have yet to learn how to do it, but it is planned.

It is a matter of building a zip file with the modules and optionally adding a small text file to the zip.

hi how can i move it from code? try with BottoMenu1.Position = 1 but it does not work

 

[Carlos marin]

I get an error when launching the app in release
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Field bottomenu1 was declared with the wrong type.

Yes, you can.

I get an error when launching the app in release
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Field bottomenu1 was declared with the wrong type.

I need to see the code to figure out where you went wrong.

Does the example work for you?

 

[Carlos marin]

hello dear, and solve the error. Can you tell me how I can move from code?

The code you used is correct.
But you're probably not using the latest version.

Then update the library.
If you want to use the old version after the change of position use the Invalidate method

hi star-dust
if you mean this file SD_BottoMenu.b4xlib, I do not know how to update it or where I can download it

Hi @Star-Dust , you’re really amazing. Have used this Bottom Menu is most of my projects but had some little issues with regards to:
1. changing the icon on each tab
2. adding titles to each tab

Please guide me on how to resolve these issues.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

[Star-Dust]

To change the icon I entered a new method (update to post#1)

SetValueAt(Position As Int, CharText As String, FontName As B4XFont)
​

As for having a title under the image, it's not expected because it's not a TAB View but a BottonMenu

Complimenti Star-Dust, you 're the man!!! Very nice job. Very handy view. I discovered a bug. When you click a menu item and click another after a fraction of the second the menu gets totally confused and the circle with the clicked item goes cuckoo (pazzo)... Try it once or two times. It must be something in the animation. Congratulations again.

Update 1.41

• Solved a bug in the animation. If another option is clicked while the animation has not yet finished, the click is ignored

V1.41 seems to be buggy. (I haven't tried previous versions.) Creating a new project with just the code from post #2 and then clicking on the tabs, some tab icons disappear and then reappear, and then eventually the interface stops responding at all. I have attached a screenshot at the point the interface has become unresponsive and the 4th tab's icon has disappeared. And another screenshot showing tab 2's icon having been replaced with tab 1's icon.

I just tried it and it works properly. Maybe you did something wrong. I added a complete example in post # 2 you can download it and try it out

 

[CaptKronos]

Just tried aSample1 from post #2 and the same problem. (Tab 3 and 4 has same icon.) I am definitely using v1.41. Testing using an S8.
