How would I go about implementing a shadow like the one you see under the title bar? I know this can be done (see for example the app “Andlytics”, where this effect shows on the bottom as well).

My best guess is that it’s a banner image used as the background for the layout. But maybe there is a better way?
I looked through the images in the SDK’s data/res folder and I found what is probably being used:
title_bar_shadow.9.png. Errr, can’t attach it here, but you should be able to find it in yourandroid-sdk-location/platforms/android-N/data/res/drawable-hdpi/folder.
