How to disable bottom navigation view in xamarin android?

Question

I'm trying to disable my bottom navigation view in my activity but it didn't work. But when i try to hide it and show it, its worked fine. But to disable and enable it, it doesn't work. Btw I used android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView

This is the code i tried

BottomNavigationView bottomNavView = FindViewById<BottomNavigationView>(Resource.Id.bottom_navigation);

bottomNavView.Enable = true;

its not working and i don't know why :/

When you say disable, what actually are you trying to disable? The individual navigation items? The shift mode? ...? — SushiHangover, Jul 02 '18 at 06:08
The bottom navigation button or the individual navigation item. — Jayson E Garcia, Jul 02 '18 at 06:31

I am using NavigationView but I saw the same methods on BottomNavigationView (I declared it on my code). To disable the item you can do this:

navigationView = FindViewById<NavigationView>(Resource.Id.nav_view);//My navigationview
IMenuItem asd = (IMenuItem)navigationView.Menu.GetItem(2);
asd.SetEnabled(false);

If you want to remove items you can do this:

navigationView.Menu.RemoveItem(Resource.Id.nav_Cambiar_TPK);
navigationView.Menu.RemoveItem(Resource.Id.nav_nuevo);
