So I started a fresh project to test this out, completely fresh, the only
code I use is
Toolbar tb = f.getToolbar();
Container IncludeSideBar = (Container) createContainer(r, "SIDEA");
tb.addComponentToSideMenu(IncludeSideBar);
still 2 issues,
1-when menu comes out it does not push the screen behind along the x
coordinate, so you cant see the hamburger button anymore (in your tutorial
you can see it) - is this meant to happen?
2- when you add a container it doesnt seem to respect the height of the
screen, so if I use a gridlayout (3,3) and add 9 buttons, in the editor
they fill the available space, but on the simulator they do not, they are
all at the top of the screen, this happens even if I use this code to try
get it to use all the space:
IncludeSideBar.setWidth(Display.getInstance().getDisplayWidth()/2);
IncludeSideBar.setHeight((Display.getInstance().getDisplayHeight()));
Screenshot shows both
problems:

I then tried your demo project from here
https://github.com/codenameone/ToolbarSidemenu
this doesnt open as a cn1 project so wont compile. Same happens with the
kitchen sink demo. Im just looking for a demo somewhere that uses a
container on the side menu and slides out and works (ie screen behind moves
along x axis as it should, and containers layout & height are respected).
Any help would be much appreciated, making a nice side menu should be very
easy these days. When following your tutorial through and doing it by code
etc, it does work as expected (form behind scrolls along x and menu looks
good) BUT this is done by code, I want to add a container from gui builder,
OR failing that do my layout in code but it needs to respect the height of
the container, since as you can see in my screenshot the client wants 8
buttons which take up equal space and fill the entire height of the
screen... is this possible?
I guess my main issue is this:
For example, why does the container "gaz" here not get its height set to
600? here when I add it to the toolbar:
Container gaz = new Container();
GridLayout grid = new GridLayout(3,3);
gaz.setLayout(grid);
gaz.setHeight(600);
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
gaz.add(new Button("TEST"));
tb.addComponentToSideMenu(gaz);
Thanks... I hope it can do this or client will have to change their designs.
