android-actionbar

I'm currently working on a simple navigation drawer + sliding tab. However, I wanted these a material design on my own app. Therefore, I have no choice except to get rid off ActionBarSherlock . When in these attempt, I found that 2 types of imports which are as follows: import com.actionbarsherlock.app.SherlockFragment; import com.actionbarsherlock.app.SherlockFragmentActivity; has to be removed too. However, more errors seem to appear after removing it. So, is there any other type of imports that could replace these 2 above? Ye Lin Aung If you're going to use appcompat-v7 , I am sure you have

MainActivity.java public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity { public DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout; public ListView mDrawerList; public ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle; // nav drawer title public CharSequence mDrawerTitle; // used to store app title public CharSequence mTitle; // slide menu items public String[] navMenuTitles; public TypedArray navMenuIcons; public ArrayList<NavDrawerItem> navDrawerItems; public NavDrawerListAdapter adapter; ActionBar actionBar; TextView tvTitle, tvTitleNext; private Stack<Fragment> fragmentStack; private Stack<Integer> fragmentCount; private

I am trying to write a code in Android , to hide the Actionbar during scroll down event. I have a grid 10x50. So when i am scrolling down the action bar should hide. I am getting scroll state result in the Log Cat correctly so , whenever i am applying for getActionBar().hide , i am getting NullPointerException error.

how to change the top and bottom padding or margin of the action bar icon or logo space by using XML theme? <style name="Theme.Whycheck" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"> <item name="actionBarItemBackground">@drawable/selectable_background_whycheck</item> <item name="actionBarStyle">@style/ActionBar.Solid.Whycheck</item> <item name="actionModeBackground">@drawable/cab_background_top_whycheck</item> <item name="actionModeSplitBackground">@drawable/cab_background_bottom_whycheck</item> <!-- Light.DarkActionBar specific --> <item name="actionBarWidgetTheme">@style/Theme

I can successfully intercept the ActionBar home button from my NavigationDrawerFragment , which is added to my MainActivity , like so: @Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { if (!loggedIn() && item.getItemId() == android.R.id.home) { login(); return true; } return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item); } However, in my ComposeActivity with ComposeFragment this does not work. onOptionsItemSelected is not called on the fragment. I have debugged the code and the issue seems to come down to the design of the Android support library. It appears that both FragmentActivity and

I have an app with an action bar that looks like this: I would like the text of the menu action buttons "Home" and "Logout" to be white as well. How can I change their text color? Let me know if you want to see any code. Thanks! As i perceive it this is a simple attribute called android:actionMenuTextColor . To use it properly you should create your own styles, like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <style name="myTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light"> <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@color/actionBarText</item> </style> <style name="myTheme.ActionBar"

I am working on a app with action bar for navigation. Now I am trying to add a Spinner to the ActionBar . I am able to get my custom icon on the ActionBar . But when I add entries into the spinner, the icon is hidden behind the selection box with first item selected. I want to have only the icon in the ActionBar and the drop-down-list/spinner to appear when tapped on the icon. This is my code : private void initializeMenu(Menu menu) { MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater(); inflater.inflate(R.menu.options, menu); View v = (View) menu.findItem(R.id.menuSort).getActionView(); Spinner spinner=

The actionbar shows a space on the left side of the logo. This space is reserved for the upindicator i think. I want to give this space a defined distance of 20dp for example. How can i do this? I can set the padding of the icon to 0, but that does not remove the space between the logo and the left side of the screen. I tried to solve it by using a custom layout. But there is a little problem. Every time the activity launches, first the normal actionbar appears and then shows the custom layout. This is how i show my custom view: @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
