Material Design Using Toolbar as Standalone
08 Dec 2014This post is related to my last post where i discussed using toolbar as an action bar. In this post i will discuss using it as standalone, now the situations will you be using the toolbar as a standalone may be summarized as
- Show multiple toolbars.
- Vary the width of the toolbar etc.
Here you see how to use it as standalone
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.my_layout);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.my_basic_toolbar);
// Set an OnMenuItemClickListener to handle menu item clicks
toolbar.setOnMenuItemClickListener(
new Toolbar.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
// Handle the menu item
return true;
}
});
// Inflate a menu to be displayed in the toolbar
toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.my_toolbar_menu);
}#####Note
when using toolbar as standalone we don’t have to disable the action bar.Rest things are same as discussed in my previous post
