I have a requirement that action Overflow menu icon should show in fragment, but not activity.
Code:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.filter:
openFilterDialog();
return true;
default:
break;
}
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_mail_list, menu);
return true;
}
menu xml:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context="com.dwisehealthcare.pmstablet.consult.activity.ConsultActivity">
<item
android:id="#+id/filter"
android:title="Filter"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_baseline_filter_list_24"
app:showAsAction="always" />
</menu>
I searched, but everyone is talking about menu item, not action icon.
Try this link may be it will help you, with the help of this you can add menu anywhere you want.Just add an ImageView to that fragment and when you click that imageView you create a PopUpMenu
I have an action bar in my activity with 3 items - Add item, Options item and Overflow item.
Add item is set to always be visible in the action bar, so is the overflow item.
My problem is with the Options item - I want it to be shown at the overflow menu, but whenever I click at the overflow item(the icon with the 3 dots), it simply does nothin. However, if I click built-in menu button on the device, it shows me the overflow menu with my Options item.
So my question is - why when I click the overflow icon, nothing happens but when I click the built-in menu button on the device, it does show me the overflow menu?
Here is my XML menu code:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" >
<item
android:id="#+id/action_add"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_new"
android:showAsAction="ifRoom"
android:title="#string/action_add_ringtone"/>
<item
android:id="#+id/action_set_options"
android:showAsAction="never"
android:title="Options" />
<item
android:id="#+id/action_settings"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_overflow"
android:orderInCategory="100"
android:showAsAction="always"
android:title="#string/action_settings"/>
</menu>
Here is my implementation for onOptionsItemSelected :
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
switch (id) {
case R.id.action_settings:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
case R.id.action_add:
pickRingtone(1000);
return true;
case android.R.id.home:
NavUtils.navigateUpFromSameTask(this);
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
You will need to override the onCreateOptionsMenu method (Ctrl+O in Android Studio).
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.your_menu_name, menu);
}
For a fragment the MenuInflater will already be a parameter, and you will need to call setHasOptionsMenu(true); somewhere such as at the end of onCreate as well.
I have seen this question asked many times, however, none of those solutions have helped me. My problem is that I have an ActionBar menu and I want its items to always be displayed on the ActionBar instead of the drop down menu.
I have tried actions suchs as "ifRoom", "always", etc. and they still show only with text on the drop down menu.
Menu: devotional_fragment_actions.xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item android:id="#+id/action_previous"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_previous_item"
android:title="#string/previous_action"
app:showAsAction="always"/>
<item android:id="#+id/action_search"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_go_to_today"
android:title="#string/date_action"
app:showAsAction="always"/>
<item android:id="#+id/action_next"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_next_item"
android:title="#string/next_action"
app:showAsAction="always"/>
</menu>
On my fragment I have:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
// action bar
inflater.inflate(R.menu.devotional_fragment_actions, menu);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// handle item selection of action bar
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_search:
showDatePickerDialog();
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
The menu works fine but is not displaying as I want it. Thanks
In each item use android namespace instead of app. You can even remove this namespace declaration xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto".
Try set it like in code below:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="#+id/action_previous"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_previous_item"
android:title="#string/previous_action"
android:showAsAction="always"/>
</menu>
While i m trying to show 3 menu in overflow menu on sherlockactionbar but it not showing overflow icon , but when i press menu button from hardware it shows option at bottom of screen :
I m overriding menu through this in SherlockFragmentActivity
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(com.actionbarsherlock.view.Menu menu) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
MenuInflater inflater = getSupportMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.activity_home, menu);
return true;
}
and in Menu xml i have also added android:showAsAction="never" property coding for that .xml:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_settings"
android:icon="#android:drawable/ic_menu_info_details"
android:showAsAction="never"
android:title="about"/>
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_settings2"
android:icon="#drawable/plusnew"
android:showAsAction="never"
android:title="Add"/>
<item
android:id="#+id/menu_settings3"
android:icon="#drawable/tem2"
android:showAsAction="never"
android:title="Done"/>
</menu>
If your Phone has a HardwareButton for the Overflowmenu, it wont display the software button because you don't need it.
In this Case:
Not a Bug, its a feature :)
Try,
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Used to put dark icons on light action bar
SubMenu subMenu1 = menu.addSubMenu("Share");
subMenu1.add("Facebook").setOnMenuItemClickListener(
new OnMenuItemClickListener() {
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
return false;
}
});
MenuItem subMenu1Item = subMenu1.getItem();
subMenu1Item.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_share);
subMenu1Item.setShowAsAction(MenuItem.SHOW_AS_ACTION_ALWAYS
| MenuItem.SHOW_AS_ACTION_WITH_TEXT); //Note the flag SHOW_AS_ACTION_ALWAYS
return true;
}
I've got a SherlockListActivity, and am trying to have a button in the action bar. Here's my menu.xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android=">http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:id="#+id/add"
android:title="Add"
android:showAsAction="ifRoom" />
</menu>
Here's my java code to show the menu:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = this.getSupportMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.layout.menu, menu);
return false;
}
But in my activity, the action bar shows, but with no button, and the menu button on my device does nothing. My device is running 2.3.3.
Thanks.
Try to return true from onCreateOptionsMenu().
