Navigation drawer menu icon is not displayed correctly

Question

I want to input my customized icon into the menu in navigation drawer. However, when I run the application it only display a shadow of icon. How do I show the image correctly?

Answer 1

It works now by removing the tint effect from icon by setItemIconTintList(null). Put the line of code below under the navigationView.

 NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
 navigationView.setItemIconTintList(null);
 navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);

Answer 2

Did you try to change to another image to see if it is displaying?

<item name="ic_recent_picture" type="drawable">@mipmap/ic_recent</item>

Path @mipmap contains correct image?

Answer 3

if you still haven't solved the problem by removing the tint, you might want to move your resource file to drawable (use Poject View) instead of drawable-anydpi like I did
