Contextual action bar does not overlay my toolbar

问题

I have created an activity and set toolbar as the actionbar which i have positioned at the bottom.

Inside that activity, I have a listview that contain some data.

Problem is, when I long press a list item, contextual action bar appears at the top instead of overlaying my toolbar which is positioned at the bottom.

my activity theme

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="myActivityTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionModeOverlay">true</item>
</style>

my toolbar

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:id="@+id/toorbar"
    android:background="@android:color/white"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

my activity

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
    ToolBar toolbar =(ToolBar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar)
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar)
}

What should i do to make CAB overlay my toolbar?

EDIT

This is onCreateActionMode method in my class that handle long clicks

private class Selector implements AbsListView.MultiChoiceModeListener{

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateActionMode(android.view.ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
        mode.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.my_activity_menu,menu);
        toolbar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        return true;
    }

回答1:

If you want the Contextual ActionBar overlap over Toolbar then use this

<item name="windowActionModeOverlay">true</item>

instead of

<item name="android:windowActionModeOverlay">true</item>

回答2:

you can try this theme this may solve your problem.

 <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">

        <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
        <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
        <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>

 </style>

<!-- Base application theme. -->
    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
        <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/color_primary</item>
        <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/color_primary_dark</item>
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/color_accent</item>

        <item name="alertDialogTheme">@style/AppCompatAlertDialogStyle</item>

        <!-- required for toolbar in prelolipop -->
        <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
        **<item name="windowActionModeOverlay">true</item>**

    </style>

use <item name="windowActionModeOverlay>true</item> for Contextual action bar to overlay toolbar. And remove if you have used <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>. It worked for me.
