I realize this thread has been dead for a couple of months, but I just
composed a list of drawables from android.R.drawable. I left out all
the NinePatch drawables; these are just the ones that might be
suitable for use as icons. Anyway, here's the link:
+1 for written guide lines.
Also I think it's a bad idea that every vendor can opt for its own look and
feel and I hope they don't. However I am aware, that this ship has sailed.
It still feels strange though to have an application platform that enables
and encourages the deployement of 3rd party
excellent advice, thanks:
So back to the whole issue of menu icons... if there are standard menu
icons you want to use, I recommend just copying them out of the platform
source and into your app, so you can make sure that the other icons you
design remain consistent with them.

Hmmm. Honestly, I found the screamingpengiun page far more helpful,
even if it's unofficial and therefore possibly risky. The official
list of resources is so terse and lacks any imagery that I find it
mostly useless. It gives no more information than the editor's javadoc

That's a very bad idea. If they're not part of the documented API,
they could very easily go away again on the next os release. Using

Hi Mark,
I think there are two things being mixed here: you mention a number of times
the basic user interaction model of not having a close menu item, but seem
to be equating that with not having a standard look for menu icons across
all applications.
To me, these are really different things.

Have a look at android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools\lib\res\default
\drawable.
I suppose these are the public drawables.

Why not have a look at the res/drawable folder in the android.jar.

To think of the day of work I could've saved if I known these were there.
So much for my custom icons :)

As with other resources, the official list of public resources is here:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.drawable.html
Note that a lot of these are actually things like state list drawable XML
files, which map to some set of multiple underlying images that you can not

That is what the originally referenced page shows (though a somewhat older
version), but many of those are not in the public SDK.

In the code referenced above the author's code iterates over
android.R.drawable and puts the result in a list. It is a bit more
illustrative as you can actually see the icons.
Also when looking for what's what and how should you

There's this list, which has been accurate for all the images I've used:

Not that old. Are there any you've found that do not work?

That list is... very questionable. It contains lots and lots of resources
that are not in the public SDK, and which you should not be using.
