SeekBar in a NavigationDrawer

Question

I want to use a seekbar in a Navigation Drawer

Basically I need to slide left and right to set the seekbar and, well, you guessed it, it slides the navigation drawer...

What I would like to do is to slide the seekbar when it's focused and the navigationdrawer when it's not.

How should I do that?

Here is my code when setting an item (I haven't set the seekbar yet)

private View onCritereView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    View mView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_critere, container, false);
    LinearLayout mLinearLayout = (LinearLayout) mView.findViewById(R.id.critere_linearlayout);

    View mViewElement = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_critere, null);
    ((TextView)mViewElement.findViewById(R.id.critere_title)).setText("Prix Maximum");

    mLinearLayout.addView(mViewElement);

    return mView;
}

Here is the item_critere.xml with the seekbar:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/critere_item"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:stretchColumns="*">

    <TableRow
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent">

        <TextView
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
                android:text="Large Text"
                android:id="@+id/critere_title"
                android:layout_gravity="left|center_vertical"
                android:layout_column="0"/>

        <SeekBar
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:id="@+id/critere_qualifier"
                android:layout_column="1"
                android:layout_span="4"/>
    </TableRow>

    <TableRow
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent">

        <TextView
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
                android:text="Medium Text"
                android:id="@+id/critere_value"
                android:layout_span="4"/>
    </TableRow>

</TableLayout>

Thanks in advance :)

Just add an onTouchListener. When you touch the screen on the seekbar (action_down) disallow parent to intercept the event.

seekbar.setOnTouchListener(new ListView.OnTouchListener() 
{
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) 
    {
        int action = event.getAction();
        switch (action) 
        {
        case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
            // Disallow Drawer to intercept touch events.
            v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
            break;

        case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
            // Allow Drawer to intercept touch events.
            v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(false);
            break;
        }

        // Handle seekbar touch events.
        v.onTouchEvent(event);
        return true;
    }
});
