OK, but now I am lost. I stopped calling
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE); AND getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.custom_title_1); So I am not missing with the Window Title. I am not getting a custom view in the title anymore, but I am getting a prehoneycomb style title bar with my app name and nothing else. The documentation states: "The Action Bar is a widget for activities that replaces the traditional title bar at the top of the screen. By default, the Action Bar includes the application logo on the left side, followed by the activity title, and access to items from the Options Menu in a drop- down list on the right side." So how do i get that default state? What else could I be doing to stop the Action Bar from occurring? I don't see anything special that the ApiDemos do to make it show up.
