Sliding panel

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion

I have a hamburger icon which when someone clicks on it, I want a sliding panel to come up from the left side.

I followed these tutorials:

https://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/08/19/tutorial-building-a-sliding-menu/

And they didn’t work.

Does anyone have a working source code for this.

  1. I’m sure those tutorials worked just fine.  You meant, they aren’t want you need, right?

  2. You haven’t been entirely clear about what you’re looking for.

SSK2, comes with a slide in dialog tray module that supports,

  1. I don’t think that is what you mean.  I think you mean a dock:

hmmm so the code created by engineers doesn’t work? Yeah coz that is likely…

“I want a sliding panel to come up from the left side.” then how about you do the work needed to actually do this?

When you have this working 100% then you can share it with others. coz you want to help others right?

sorry for the unclear answer. 

I am sure the code in the tutorial works, but I keep on getting error messages. Does anyone have the full source codes for both tutorials.

For response to the quote above, I am a beginner so I don’t know how to do this.

Sometimes the articles don’t come with a downloadable example (I think it would be better if they always did).

I made one for you from this article:

https://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/08/19/tutorial-building-a-sliding-menu/

Here is my approximation of a sample:

I couldn’t get to the other link you provided.  It seems to be missing?:  https://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/04/15/tutorial-creating-a-sharing-panel/

Thanks

I actually tried this link: https://github.com/roaminggamer/RG_FreeStuff/raw/master/AskEd/2017/06/basicDock.zip

from your previous post and it worked perfectly.

I have created a plugin that support sliding panel. Here is the link : https://marketplace.coronalabs.com/plugin/dialogs-normal-informative-calendar-menu

@garygusep2, I’m sorry those tutorials didn’t work for you. When you run into problems like this, you will make it much easier for us to help you if you tell us how its not working. Copy and paste the entire error from the console log window. Also if you can post your source code that goes with that error it will help us pin down the error for you.
