I've been trying to implement a contextual action bar along with a dialog fragment.
Similar to the downloads widget in android.
I've tried to set android:windowActionModeOverlay to be true in the theme.
But it doesnt seem to work. Is there any way I can achieve it??
The downloads window that you have in your screenshot is actually an Activity using the #android:style/Theme.Holo.Dialog theme which makes it look like a dialog. To achieve the same look as the downloads window, your Activity need only use the same theme.
You can set this theme in your manifest like so:
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Dialog" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Example implementation excluding string and drawable resources.
Manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.mceley.dialog.example"
android:versionCode="1"

<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="14"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo.Dialog" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
MainActivity.java:
package com.mceley.dialog.example;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.ActionMode;

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {

findViewById(R.id.context_button).setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
ExampleMode mode = new ExampleMode();
startActionMode(mode);
}
public class ExampleMode implements ActionMode.Callback {

</menu>
Result:
I don't think you can add ActionBar in DialogFragment.
But We can Try that using Activity As Dialog.
I have tried this with ActionBarSherlock and I have added R.style.Sherlock___Theme_Dialog as my Activity's theme but it looks like this:
After doing Above thing i understud, we can't Add ActionBar in Dialog or DialogFragment.

How to start new activity on button click
(28 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I used startActivity() method but it is not working.I think this method is not working because my MainActivity extends app compat actvity.
So please help me to start activity in an app compat activity.
I try various times but when I start my apk and click on button then app crashes.
Here my code
main.xml
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

use this
Intent intent=new Intent(this,Target_Activity.class);
startActivity(intent);
And open your manifest file add this line
<activity android:name=".Target_Activity"
android:parentActivityName=".MainActivity">
</activity>
I hope you try this code..
Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,SecondActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
Please add second activity into android manifest file.
<activity android:name=".SecondActivity"/> // define second activity name.
add this code in android manifest file..
<activity
android:name=".SecondActivity"
android:label="secondActivity" >
</activity>
I'm writing simple tutorial app and for some reason my App icon is not showing up (I want to use it as navigate up button instead of the arrow).
As stated in the topic, I want to do it on Api level 11, however all the sollutions I've found rely on setIcon method.
getActionBar().setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher); //only on API >= 14
The fragment preview in Android studio 1.0.2 does show the icon, however the emulator does not, so I'd expect the resource is ok. Also, the search and delete icons are working like a charm. I've tried setting this both as Icon and a logo to no avail.

I've stumbled upon suggestion that I may be able to define custom style based on one of the existing styles, but can't quite figure out how to approach it.
If you need any other file, let me know and thanks for your time.
since it's API 11..
did you try using the support libraries?
try switching
getActionBar().setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
with :
getSupportActionBar().setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
tell me if it works and we'll continue from there :)
I am using eclipse android
I want to know about the orientantion changes ,when orientation changes gget a log message in logid ,Below is our code

// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
Log.d("Android","orientation changes"+newConfig.orientation);
}

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
here we don't get the message in the log cat .I am trying to log the integer value of the orientation .there is no error in the code
Use
<activity
android:name="com.example.orientation.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize">
Instead of this....
<activity
android:name="com.example.orientation.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize">
see the difference
Is there any way to use ADT's manifest merging feature (manifestmerger.enabled=true in project.properties) in Android Studio?
1. create sample project
2. add new module
3. Module Setting
4. Remove files in App Module

How can I get rid of this spinning circle before I publish the app? It is an ugly and annoying distraction to the app itself.
Thanks Y'all!
Try commenting out the line requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS); in your onCreate() callback.
