so I only need to know when the user clicks on a certain menu item in my bottom navigation bar, the thing is that navigation works correctly if I put a navController.navigate() inside of this listener, but I don't want to do it because it messes with my cache state strategy, what I only want is to keep the bottom nav runing as always and navigating without any issues.

Only thing that I need to do is to register when the user clicks on that menu item, and I'm doing that with this

if(bottomNavigationBar.menu.getItem(3).isVisible) {
            bottomNavigationBar.menu.getItem(3).setOnMenuItemClickListener {
                trackEvent()
                true
            }
        }

thing is that with this code it tracks when I click the menu item but it does not navigate to the destination

any one knows why I need to add navController.navigate() to this click event to navigate ? I don't want to do so

what is `trackevent()` and why are you using inside menu click listener? – Ramesh Oct 14 '21 at 19:17
Because I need to track event when that menu item is clicked @Ramesh – SNM Oct 14 '21 at 19:20
okay, add condition in event() which menuID is clicked then call navigate() function – Ramesh Oct 14 '21 at 19:23
I cannot call navigate because it will mess with my saving state of that fragment – SNM Oct 14 '21 at 19:24
simply use replace fragment function I think – Ramesh Oct 14 '21 at 19:25
