JFEinstien sliding menu unable to set width of the behind view

I was working on implementing the sliding menu.

I want to set the width of the sliding menu as 2/3 of the screen width when active.

Here is my MainActivity

public class MainActivity extends SlidingActivity {

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

    setBehindContentView(R.layout.slidemenu_layout);

    setSlidingActionBarEnabled(false);

    SlidingMenu menu = new SlidingMenu(this);
    menu.setMode(SlidingMenu.LEFT);
    menu.setTouchModeAbove(SlidingMenu.TOUCHMODE_MARGIN);
    menu.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width);
    menu.setShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadow);
    menu.setFadeDegree(0.35f);
    menu.attachToActivity(this, SlidingMenu.SLIDING_CONTENT);

    DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
    getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);

    menu.setBehindWidth((2*displaymetrics.widthPixels)/3);

}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getSupportMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
    case android.R.id.home:
        toggle();
        return true;
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

}

*NOTE :*I had initially made MainActivity extend Activity and it was working fine there. I had to move to SlidingActivity to implement Action Bar Sherlock

EDIT :I replaced SlidingActivity with SherlockActivity and deleted the setBehindContentView(..) and carried on.But no clue why 1st one did not work.

Have you tried using setBehindWidthRes rather than setBehindOffsetRes?

You can try setting the behind width with setBehindOffsetRes, and passing an id from a resource XML, like in this answer.
