Question: In apps like Google+ or Facebook, you can tap on the upper right icon on the actionbar and the content below the actionbar slides to the left while a menu to the right of the content slides in, like this:

![Google+ Left-to-Right Sliding menu](https://i.stack.imgur.com/nQ0gk.png)

How is this done? Is there some built-in class/widget I can add? I don't want just a menu that pops up but slides in while the content slides out.

Here is a post that addresses this but it's 2 years old:
[Facebook Slider Menu](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13185070/facebook-slide-menu-slide-to-right-in-android)

Maybe Google added this as a built-in feature since then like they did with the Navigation Drawwer?

Answer: 
It's called Navigation Drawer and it is a built-in option in Android. Please visit:
[Navigation Drawer | Android Developers](https://developer.android.com/design/patterns/navigation-drawer.html)

**EDIT (by AndroidDev)**

Here is how a dual navigation drawer is implemented:
[DrawerLayout Double Drawer (Left and Right Drawers simultaneously)](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17861755/drawerlayout-double-drawer-left-and-right-drawers-simultaneously)
You can also take a look at the open-source [SlidingMenu](https://github.com/jfeinstein10/SlidingMenu) library, that is used by an impressive list of apps. It should allow you to achieve the customizations you want.

There's also a [Play Store Demo app called SlidingMenu Demo](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidingmenu.example) you can try.
