Question

I found an example how to use a context menu with actionBar. This example waits for clicks on the phones menu button. But I want to have it appended to the icon or better the activity name. thanks

  public class menu extends Activity {

        @Override
        public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
           MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
           inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_fragen, menu);
           return true;
        }
    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
..

Answer 1

After the logo and title comes an drop down menu indicator.

That has nothing to do with onCreateOptionsMenu() or onOptionsItemSelected(). To set up that Spinner:

1. Get your ActionBar via getActionBar()

2. Call setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST) on the ActionBar

3. Call setListNavigationCallbacks() on the ActionBar with your SpinnerAdapter and a listener object to be notified when the user makes a selection change in the Spinner
