Clicking Hamburger Icon does not open Navigation Drawer

Question

I have simple a navigation drawer app and the navigation drawer and hamburger is work fine in my main activity.

In the "Visiting Place" activity I do all things the same as the Main activity. All I am trying to do is to open a NavigationDrawer by pressing the "hamburger" icon in the top left corner. The "hamburger" button is visible, and when I start to pull from the left I see the animation on the button but pressing the button does not open/close the NavigationDrawer as I expect in My "Visiting Place activity".

Sorry for any confusion, below is the simplified code I am currently attempting to use:

This is my main activity code:

    package com.example.android.raidighitour;

   import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.appcompat.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.drawerlayout.widget.DrawerLayout;

import android.content.ClipData;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.Toast;

import com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
    private ActionBarDrawerToggle actionBarDrawerToggle;
    private NavigationView navigationView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        drawerLayout =(DrawerLayout)findViewById(R.id.activity_main);
        actionBarDrawerToggle=new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this,drawerLayout,R.string.open,R.string.close);

        drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(actionBarDrawerToggle);
        actionBarDrawerToggle.syncState();

        getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

        navigationView=(NavigationView)findViewById(R.id.navigation);

        Intent i1= new Intent(this,VisitingPlace.class);


        navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(new NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
                int id= item.getItemId();
                switch (id){
                    case R.id.home:
                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,"THis is home",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        break;
                    case R.id.visiting_place:
                        startActivity(i1);
                        break;
                    default:
                        return true;
                }

                return true;
            }
        });


        ImageView visiting_place=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.image_visiting_place);

        visiting_place.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                Intent i2= new Intent(MainActivity.this,VisitingPlace.class);
                startActivity(i2);
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
        if(actionBarDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item))return  true;
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
}

Answer 1

You need to implement onOptionsItemSelected in the VisitingPlace activity as well. Are you implementing this?

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
    if (actionBarDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)) {
        return true;
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
