带图标的android选项菜单

Question

How to show icon with option menu.I have tried the following code but my option menu is without image icon.I am using android version 4.0 for developing app.

Java code :

 public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
            super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
             menu.add("Add Contacts").setIcon(
                    R.drawable.ic_launcher);

            return true;
        }

Following is my app's screen shot

I need image to be displayed on the top of "Add Contacts" item.

Answer 1

Override OnPrepareOptionsMenu and add icon from there too

and if its for above 3.0, use android:showAsAction in xml.

eg. android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText"

Answer 2

I tried the code in two line and it works:

public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
        menu.add("Add Contacts");
        menu.getItem(0).setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
        return true;
}

You can create a custom menu like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+id/add_contacts"
          android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
          android:title="@string/add_contacts"
         />
</menu>

And then inflate it

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.my_menu, menu);
    return true;
}

More on this here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/menus.html#options-menu

Answer 4

you can directly set this into the xml file.

  <item android:id="@+id/add_contacts"
  android:icon="@android:drawable/plus_icon"
  android:title="Add Contacts"/>

Answer 5

You Can try Following this Link .

Check this out and tell me if it worked or not.

Or you can do some thing like this.
Create menu.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
      <item android:id="@+id/next"
              android:icon="@drawable/ic_next"
              android:title="@string/next" />
      <item android:id="@+id/previous"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_previous"
            android:title="@string/previous" />
      <item android:id="@+id/list"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_list"
            android:title="@string/list" /> 
</menu>

And now you will be able to set ICON on menu

Now in CreateOptionMenu

public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
      MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
      inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu, menu);
      return true;
    }

And to access that menu.

public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
      switch (item.getItemId()) {
      case R.id.next:
            Toast.makeText(this, "You have chosen the " + getResources().getString(R.string.next) + " menu option",
                        Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            return true;
      …
      default:
            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
      }
   }

Answer 6

To enable Option Menu with Icons:

Wrap the Items with an Item with showAsAction="always" and a Menu :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item
        android:title="@string/title_menu"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_icon_menu"
        app:showAsAction="always">
        <menu>
            <item
                android:id="@+id/action1"
                android:orderInCategory="100"
                android:title="@string/action1"
                android:icon="@mipmap/ic_icon_action1"
                app:showAsAction="never" />
        </menu>
    </item>
</menu>

Answer 7

If you use some following attribute in manifest file then it's will be show your icon....

<activity android:name=".ui.CategoryActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        **android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar"**></activity>

It's work fine for me...:) +1 for my own effort...

**must be enter.

Answer 8

Easiest way is to use the @drawable only when setting your menu item.

OR

Simply put the @drawable before the title declaration.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<menu
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app    ="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
  android:id      ="@+id/addToFavorites"
  android:icon = "@drawable/ic_favorite_border_white_24dp"
  android:title = "Hello"
  app:showAsAction="always" />
<item
  android:id      ="@+id/about"
  android:title   ="About"
  app:showAsAction="never" />
</menu>  

Answer 9

the problem is the Androidmanifest.xml. Remove android:theme="@style/AppTheme" and it will work just fine
