Have you tried this way ?

override fun void onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setHasOptionsMenu(true)
    }

    override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu, inflater: MenuInflater) {
        inflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu_buttons,menu)
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater)
    }

[Md Sajid Shahriar]

You have try this inside the Fragment you want to show the menu option

[Joshua]

should I try using setHasOptionsMenu(true) inside my fragment?

[Md Sajid Shahriar]

Yes.

also you need to override the onCreateOptionsMenu to add the menu inside your fragment also.

[Joshua]

I want to hide this button from the fragment

[Joshua]

and then on some fragments I want to show it

[Joshua]

I just want to show the button on certain specific fragments

[Joshua]

Im using single activity pattern

[Md Sajid Shahriar]

I see

Can you try this in the fragment you want to hide ?

override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu?, inflater: MenuInflater?) {
    super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater)
    menu?.findItem(R.id.menu_id)?.isVisible = false 
}

[Joshua]

that did not work

override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu?): Boolean {

        menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu_buttons,menu)
        //val menu = findViewById<NavigationView>(R.id.navigation_view).menu
        //menu.getItem(R.id.action_goOffline).isVisible = cancelButtonIsVisible
        menu?.getItem(R.id.action_goOffline)?.isVisible = false
        return true
    }

[Joshua]
