ActionBar Divider Styling

Question

I have two questions. Before detailing these questions, I want to add I\'m using

Answer 1

the attribute you are looking for is:

<style name="Theme.Example" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
    <item name="actionBarDivider">@drawable/small_detail_divider</item>
    ....
    <item name="android:actionBarDivider">@drawable/small_detail_divider</item>
    ...
</style>

Just to give you some more info.

The split ActionBar should be set with:

<style name="Theme.Example" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
    <item name="actionBarSplitStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBarSplit</item>
    <item name="android:actionBarSplitStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBarSplit</item>
    ...

Then provide your custom style for the split action bar..

Thrid question: Adding in order:

When you add the menu item pragmatically use: Menu

menu.add (0, R.id.menu_new_ab_item, 0, "Item");

The order determines how you order your menu items.

You can be more specific in your menu.xml files android:orderInCategory="1..n" can be any int. I normally start at 10 or so, so I can inflate items in-front of the standard items.
