this error happens when you add two navigationview with same gravity to 1 drawerlayout

@maxhectorizquierdo could you please also add some information what you try to do? the errortext is thrown from the DraverLayout so it could be everything.

Well, actually I can't figure out how to emulate the error, because I noticed it from my Fabric dashboard. I just have the complete Stack Error.

do you also see if it was in RTL mode or not?

mikepenz on 27 Apr 2017

No it wasn't. :(

maxhectorizquierdo on 27 Apr 2017

It seems it happens after a time the user pauses the app(when the app comes to the background) and then he resumes it , maybe two hours after(and comes to the foreground) in that very moment the app crashes along with the DrawerLayout. I just 've experienced this a few seconds ago.

@maxhectorizquierdo can you provide a small demo application which reproduces this. I can't see it in the sample app

mikepenz on 1 May 2017

Closing until more details are provided as it was not reproduceable

I had the same problem. And it happens when you don't have proper handling of fragments. The way I solved my problem was that I was creating the fragment again, so there were two fragments added after the app was killed in the background. One was the automatic recreated fragment and the second was mine, so then 2 drawer menus are added on the same side of the layout, which causes the exception.
So then I decided to check if the fragment was recreated, and if it is then use that one, if not then created and add it.

I found this issue when it comes to RTL languages. If you open the drawer, then tap on the outside of an open drawer, i get this crash. I am working on a solution at the moment
