android-menu

I have been trying to figure out why my boolean is not changing when I press the button, when I changed it manually it worked, but it doesn't do any thing. I have tried to follow tutorials to the word but they don't work. Can anybody point out where I am going wrong? public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem menu) { MenuItem freeze = (MenuItem)findViewById(R.id.freeze); // Handle item selection switch (menu.getItemId()) { case R.id.freeze: if (freze == false){ freze = true; } else { freze = false; } return true; case R.id.toggleVolCount: if (toggleVol == true){ toggleVol = false; } else {

Only one theme is recommended. Code <resources> <!-- Base application theme

However, I want to divide them in two lines, with

After switching to toolbar there is a problem with menu icons. Although I set for a menu item android:showAsAction="always" it does not show the icon, I can only find it clicking on the popup icon. This is myActivity public class myActivity extends AppCompatActivity{ ......... public void onCreate(....){ ............. Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(....); setSupportActionBar(toolbar); } ............ public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu{ getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu, menu); return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu); } ............. } menu.xml <menu xmlns:android="http:/
