I have more then a few ActionBar items, and I am using splitActionBarWhenNarrow option. Latest Gmail app also uses it. But it also have a custom item on upper right that sho
When the ActionBar is splitted (using android:uiOptions="splitActionBarWhenNarrow"
), all menu items automatically go to the bottom bar but custom view can still be put in the top.
View customNav = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.custom_view, null);
getActionBar().setCustomView(customView);
