Aligning the ActionBar icon












0














I followed this tutorial to create a Navigation Drawer activity. I have the following code:



Activity XML



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".Activities.DashboardActivity">

<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="@color/login_blue"
android:theme="@style/MyNavbarTheme" />

</FrameLayout>

<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:menu="@menu/drawer_view"
app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header"/>

</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>


Activity code



....

ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();

try {
actionbar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
actionbar.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.icon_menu_white);
}
catch (NullPointerException err) {
err.printStackTrace();
}

...


However, the menu icon isn't aligned with the text (see image). The icon is slightly above the center. How can I fix this? Also how can I change the color of the title text? enter image description here

  • Does this happen after you start the activity in landscape and rotate the phone to portrait?

This is how I managed to solve this issue.



I removed this from my code



actionbar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
actionbar.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.icon_menu_white);


and used this instead:



 ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, mDrawerLayout, toolbar, R.string.text_in,
R.string.text_out);
mDrawerLayout.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
