Question

i can’t set title to Action bar sherlock. Here is my code:

public void addNavaigationBar(){

       //Create Action Bar sherlock
ActionBar navigation_bar =  getSupportActionBar();



//Setting standart navigation bar view
navigation_bar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD);



navigation_bar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
navigation_bar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
navigation_bar.setTitle("Testing");



}

I want to add Testing tile but it don’t changes. This should be easy but i can’t find it.

Also i am wondering if i could create this navigation bar on top and Tab bar on bottom with Action bar sherlock ?

Thanks.

EDIT:
Sorry this is working, it’s my other mistake.

Answer 1

First off, I can’t find the documentation, but it’s not considered best practices to place Android tabs on the bottom – something about that being how it’s done on iOS. Theoretically, though, it could be possible with SplitWhenNarrow if you filled the top bar with enough other things – but it would be unreliable, because on a tablet, for example, there might be enough space to load the tabs with everything else on the top bar.

Edit~ Just tested in my code – you can leave out the show title method(true) and still call setTitle on the actionbar, and it sets the title properly.
