Android Question B4XDrawer CenterPanel use?

[Computersmith64]

After having some issues with getting B4XDrawer to work correctly with a layout containing a TabHost & a ScrollView, I discovered that I don't need to use the CenterPanel property - & in this case if I don't use it everything works as expected.

So, given that I am not using AppCompat in this case, am I right in assuming that the CenterPanel property isn't required if AppCompat isn't used?

OK - I did find one issue with not using CenterPanel. It makes any views on the very left side of the screen unresponsive to touches, however in most activities in this particular app it doesn't matter.

No. The CenterPanel should hold the activity content.

No. The CenterPanel should hold the activity content.

Can you please explain in more detail what the purpose of CenterPanel is?

The main content should go into CenterPanel. Otherwise the main content elements will intercept the touch events instead of the drawer.
