http://stackoverflow.com – I have an application with an FragmentActivity called MainActivity which holds two fragments, one menu fragment to the left and one content fragment to the right. On a large device both of these fragments are shown. On a small device only the menu fragment is shown and when the user presses an item in said menu the content fragment is displayed in a new Activity. Lets say the user is currently using the application on his phone and only the menu is visible: The ActionBar of MainActivity can be manipulated by user choices in the menu. When the user selects a specific menu item, a new Activity (HowTos)

Stories similar to Share ActionBar between different activities

I have added an actionbar menu option called share for my fragment which appears but the selection event is not being caught

I am adding it like this

@Override public void onCreateOptionsMenu (Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) { MenuItem item = menu.add(0, 7,0, R.string.share); item.setIcon(R.drawable.social_share).setShowAsAction(MenuItem.SHOW_AS_ACTION_IF_ROOM); }

Trying to capt

My app uses a ViewPager in portrait mode and a dual-fragment layout in landscape.

I am trying to kick off an AsyncTask, that is in the Fragment, from Activity. The AsyncTask is normally started from a menu item in the Actionbar, but I have a need to start it programatically from the Activity.

The menu item is an ImageView and I'm animating it while the AsyncTask is running.

I have an activity showing a few fragments. Activity view contains only ViewPager initialized with custom FragmentPagerAdapter. This adapter provide navigation among 3 fragments.

All seems to work fine except Action bar.

I override onCreateOptionsMenu() method in my fragments to create individual Action bar for any fragment:

@Override public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInfla

I want to disable the home button (left icon) in a particular fragment. I want it there of course, just not clickable.

Here is what im trying to achieve: I have ActioBar and I have a menu item named Login over the ActionBar.

What I want to do:

I want each Fragment of my MainActivity to use a different theme, so that the ActionBar has different background-colors, depending on the visible Fragment.

The Situation:

I created a MainActivity which uses the Tabs + Swipe Navigation. I Added 7 Tabs (=7 Fragments).

I'm trying to add a fragment to an activity after the content view in the activity has been set. I'm not using the compatibility package and have my target API set to 16. I'm expecting the activity to be set to the fragments layout after the setContentView method in the main activity but on runtime, the fragment is never added and the screen in blank.

I have an application that is composed of one activity and 3 fragments. The activity creates a menu with buttons that create the appropriate fragments. My code works perfectly without screen rotations, but it breaks when I rotate the screen.

My first attempt did not include a setRetainInstance(true) call when creating the fragments.

This would be a lengthy question with lots of code in it so to those who would take time to read it Thank you so much!

So basically I have an application made using Eclipse. The MAIN ACTIVITY is extended as FragmentActivity, called MenuMain.java. This activity have three fragments defined in its xml.
