android-actionbar

I have a ListView that I want each row to fill a third of the available screen. I have the status bar visible, and then an actionBar with slidingTabs beneath. I'm doing the current calculation like this: height = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().heightPixels; if (context.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.actionBarSize, tv, true)) { actionBarHeight = TypedValue.complexToDimensionPixelSize(tv.data,context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics()); Log.d("actionBarHeigth", actionBarHeight.toString()); } And setting the views height like this: holder.imageView.getLayoutParams().height

With the help of these program, I created the Tabs. you can look at a below Codes. HomeActivity.java: package com.sit.fth.activity; import android.app.ActionBar; import android.app.ActionBar.Tab; import android.content.Intent; import android.os.Bundle; import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager; import android.util.Log; import android.view.WindowManager; public class HomeActivity extends BaseActivity implements VideoFragment.OnVideoSelectedListener, AboutFragment.OnAboutFragmentSelectedListener, AnnouncenentFragment.OnAnnouncementSelectedListener, GalleryFragment.OnGalItemSelectedListener,

I am trying to add a textView on the actionBar which I can dynamically edit. Why is the below code not working???? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@android:id/text1" style="@style/TextMedium" android:paddingLeft="5dp" android:singleLine="true" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:ellipsize="marquee" /> In the onCreate method of activity, View addView = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.spinner_select_text, null); actionBar.setCustomView(addView,new ActionBar

How does one create this? If you try using a Toolbar and you have inflated MenuItems you'll quickly find out that your Toolbar layout will shrink in width so it does not overlay the MenuItems. The only thing that comes to mind is inflating a layout and adding it to the Window as an overlay that sits on top of the ActionBar. Remember, this is not a problem if you do not need to inflate MenuItems in your Toolbar/ActionBar as then you are given the full width to occupy. So I went with the route of adding my view as an overlay. /** * A Material themed search view that should be overlayed on the

Background I want to show a bitmap on the left side of the title of the activity, in the actionbar (toolbar, to be exact), so I used this: @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar); setSupportActionBar(toolbar); getSupportActionBar().setLogo(R.mipmap.ic_launcher); ... The problem Thing is, the logo seems to have too much margin on its left, while the title text is very near the logo itself, so it looks like this: This is not symmetrical at all.

i just spent some hours on making the Actionbar visible without success: With my RegisterActivity i collect some login data and then i start MainActivity. In RegisterActivity i have a Actionbar but not in MainActivity: AndroidManifest: <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" android:targetSdkVersion="17"/> <application android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" > <activity android:name="RegisterActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN
