B4X:
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    'Initialize Scale
    'Scale.SetRate(0.5)
    'Activity.LoadLayout("Menu")
    'Activity.Width = 100%x
    'Activity.Height = 100%y
   
    pnlMenu.Initialize("")
    Activity.AddView(pnlMenu,0dip,0dip,100%x,100%y)
    pnlMenu.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"menu.png"))
   
    'play button
   
    btnPlay.Initialize("button_play")
    btnPlay.Text="Herry"
   
    pnlMenu.AddView(btnPlay,0,0,50%x,70%y)
    'btnPlay.Bitmap=LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"playbutton.png")
    'btnPlay.BringToFront
    'Activity.AddView(btnPlay,50%x - 80%x / 2, 50%y - 40%y / 2, 80%x, 40%y)
   
    'Scale.VerticalCenter2(pnlMenu, imgPlay,pnlMenu)
    'btnPlay.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"playbutton.png"))
    'Scale.ScaleView(imgPlay)
   
    CREATE_SLIDE_MENU
End Sub
Sub button_play_click
    ToastMessageShow("you rocked the world!!!, yeah",True)
End Sub

I've followed the example given in this Post https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/how-does-one-add-a-button-to-a-panel-in-code.25628/

Though still it doesn't work.
Whats wrong with this.

Thanks for the help in advance.

This code works:
B4X:
Sub Globals
    Dim pnlMenu As Panel
    Dim btnPlay As Button
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    pnlMenu.Initialize("")
    Activity.AddView(pnlMenu,0dip,0dip,100%x,100%y)
'    pnlMenu.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"menu.png"))
    btnPlay.Initialize("button_play")
    btnPlay.Text="Herry"
    pnlMenu.AddView(btnPlay,0,0,50%x,70%y)
End Sub

Sub button_play_click
    ToastMessageShow("you rocked the world!!!, yeah",True)
End Sub
So the problem must be somewhere else.
What are you doing in CREATE_SLIDE_MENU ?

I would suggest you to use "btnPlay" for the generic event name instead of "button_play".
And then Sub btnPlay_Click, the code would better readable.

Hi klaus, I've already change "button_play" to "btnplay", but still it doesn't work.

When I swipe the right side of "pnlMenu" it shows another menu. Here is the code of CREATE_SLIDE_MENU


B4X:
Sub CREATE_SLIDE_MENU
    sldMenu.Initialize("Drawer", pnlMenu, (pnlMenu.Width-100dip))
    sldMenu.SetEdgeSize(sldMenu.GRAVITY_START,sldMenu.GetEdgeSize(sldMenu.GRAVITY_START) * 3)
    'btn sound
    btnSound.Initialize("button_sound")
    btnSound.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"btnsound.png"))
    'btn Music
    btnMusic.Initialize("button_music")
    btnMusic.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"btnmusic.png"))
    'view
    sldMenu.NavigationPanel.AddView(btnSound,50%x - 80%x / 2,70%y - 50%y / 2,(pnlMenu.Width-130%x),(pnlMenu.Height-250%y))
    sldMenu.NavigationPanel.AddView(btnMusic,110%x - 170%x / 2,70%y - 50%y / 2,(pnlMenu.Width-130%x),(pnlMenu.Height-250%y))
    sldMenu.NavigationPanel.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"slidemenu.png"))
   
    'sldMenu.NavigationPanel.Color = Colors.RGB(209,151,35)
End Sub
