How to change the index icon of option menu? I mean icon (3). Here is my code: @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater(); inflater.inflate(R.menu.options, menu); return true; } And here is the XML file: <item android:id="@+id/Bugreport" android:title="@string/option_bugreport" /> <item android:id="@+id/Info" android:title="@string/option_info" /> <item android:id="@+id/About" android:title="@string/option_about" /> Syed Raza Mehdi The following lines should be updated in app -> main -> res -> values -> Styles.xml <!-- Application theme.

How to change text color of menu item title. I tried to change it as below <style name="Theme.Kanku.ActionBar.TitleTextStyle" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title"> <item name="android:textColor">@color/white</item> </style> But it change color only of Action Bar title text, but not menu item text.

I am attempting to update my android application to look better for tablets running Honeycomb. As such, I am targeting version 11 of the SDK (my minSdkVersion = 4). This adds the Honeycomb theme to my app, making it look better. However, I have no way to access my menu options. So, I am attempting to add my menu items as an action bar item with the following in the file in my /res/menu/ folder: android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText" However, I get the following error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'showAsAction' in package 'android' I tried altering my minSdkVersion number to 11

I can't understand why wrong and incompatible (AndroidStudio tells me "Should use app:showAsAction with the appcompat library) code <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" > <item android:id="@+id/action_search" android:title="@string/action_search" android:icon="@drawable/search" android:showAsAction="always" /> </menu> works perfect, but proper and compatible version like <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" > <item android:id="@+id/action_search" android:title="@string/action_search"

I'm building an Android application and I'm trying to build a user management system where users can login, logout, etc. I want to display a login menu item if the user is logged out and a logout button if the user is logged in. How can I do this dynamically? This is the layout file right now: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item android:id="@+id/add" android:title="Add" android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_add"/> <item android:id="@+id/list" android:title="List" android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_list"/> <item android:id="@+id
