I am trying to force "reset" to show up in ActionBar's overflow (3 vertical dots). The appearance of summary is correct, but I can't seem to make the overflow appear. What set of enums do I need for android:showAsAction? I have tried these 3 variants but none give the desired result:
android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText" android:showAsAction="never|withText" android:showAsAction="always|withText" Maybe it's user error, but this would be useful to add to the docs http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html#ActionItems I have also looked on stackoverflow and have not found anything directly answering this question. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9286822/how-to-force-use-of-overflow-menu-on-devices-with-menu-button http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9163594/overflow-actionbar-entry-missing-for-ics-phone-using-compat-lib?rq=1 [image: Inline image 3] <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" > <item android:id="@+id/menu_reset" android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_reset" android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText" android:title="@string/menu_reset"/> <item android:id="@+id/menu_summary" android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_summary" android:showAsAction="always" android:title="@string/menu_summary"/> </menu> public class MainActivity extends Activity { @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activitymain); ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar(); actionBar.show(); return; } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
