Compile the example and try it out, or install it from the App Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidingmenu.example

This actually works.
Amazingly well, in fact.
Even on 2.1.

As an Android developer I can't understate just how much this library will improve my quality of life. Dunno if anyone else is as thrilled by the existence of this library as I am.

This is fantastic. My only gripe is that the documentation doesn't seem to explicitly define the what above and below mean (that is which view is the sidebar and which is the main content). It's clear from the view attribute explanations, but I had to scroll down and stare at them for a second before it clicked.

Yeah it's a bit of a pain and I'm wrestling with UI stuff myself. I don't know about your stuff specifically, but maybe this will help?

It's a pretty comprehensive overview of how themes and styles work, and how you can stash common attributes in a style so you're not repeating yourself. Maybe you're already familiar with it or it's no use for states, but worth a look I guess

Thanks, that link is great.
