I’m trying to implement an application with a specific view. It needs to have a horizontal bar at the top that contains the app icon, and other buttons and spinners. These items must be static and should appear on every page of the app.
Below that horizontal bar will be a Tabbed component, with the tabs being horizontal at the bottom of the page. I can also implement the desired behavior with the tabs on top of the Tabbed component. Each tab will obviously change the fragment being displayed within the tab’s frame.
I am working on an implementation that uses the ActionBar and the menu options. However, I can’t get the menu options (my buttons and spinners) to appear above the tabs. And I’m not sure if menu options is the right approach. Any ideas?
Silly me! the answer was right there. I simply had to turn the title bar back on (only with no title) and the menu options would appear right into that title bar.
