title: How to show "Sliding Menu" on Activity launch?
body: <p>I am trying to use excellent library <a href="https://github.com/jfeinstein10/SlidingMenu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Sliding Menu</a> by Jeremy Feinstein. </p>
  
  <p>For my case it will be great if the activity is launched with Sliding Menu open like</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/QwlYm.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>instead of Sliding menu closed like</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/d7DqM.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>I have tried to put <code>toggle()</code> in the activity but no use.</p>
  
  <p><strong>SlidingSherlockFragmentActivity</strong></p>
  
  <p>It is same as <a href="https://github.com/jfeinstein10/SlidingMenu/blob/master/library/src/com/slidingmenu/lib/app/SlidingFragmentActivity.java" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SlidingFragmentActivity</a> except it extends SherlockFragmentActivity instead of FragmentActivity.</p>
  
  <p><strong>BaseActivity</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>public class BaseActivity extends SlidingSherlockFragmentActivity {
      private int mTitleRes;
      protected ListFragment mFrag;
  
      public BaseActivity(int titleRes) {
          mTitleRes = titleRes;
      }
  
      private static final String TAG = "BaseActivity";
  
      @Override
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
          setTitle(mTitleRes);
  
          // set the Behind View
          setBehindContentView(R.layout.menu_frame);
          FragmentTransaction t = this.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
          mFrag = new SampleListFragment();
          t.replace(R.id.menu_frame, mFrag);
          t.commit();
  
          // customize the SlidingMenu
          SlidingMenu sm = getSlidingMenu();
          sm.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width);
          sm.setShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadow);
          sm.setBehindOffsetRes(R.dimen.slidingmenu_offset);
          sm.setFadeDegree(0.35f);
          sm.setTouchModeAbove(SlidingMenu.TOUCHMODE_FULLSCREEN);
  
          getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
  
          sm.setOnOpenListener(new SlidingMenu.OnOpenListener() {
              @Override
              public void onOpen() {
                  Log.d(TAG, "onOpen");
              }
          });
          sm.setOnOpenedListener(new SlidingMenu.OnOpenedListener() {

                  Log.d(TAG, "onOpened");
              }
          });
          sm.setOnCloseListener(new SlidingMenu.OnCloseListener() {
              @Override

                  Log.d(TAG, "onClose");

  <p><strong>[Edit 2]</strong></p>
  
  <p>Look like <code>toggle()</code> in <code>onStart()</code> is activation both opening and closing of Sliding Menu before activity is displayed.</p>
