结合动作栏和自定义TitleBar？

Question

I'm creating an application for android 4.0 and above. I use the Holo.Light theme with dark ActionBar ( Tabs as navigation mode).

The problem: there are too many icons (tabs) I'd need to place into the ActionBar, so I'm thinking about creating a custom TitleBar and placing some Buttons there to keep the functionality whilst not overspamming the ActionBar . I tried the following:

 requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
 setContentView(R.layout.main);
 getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.mytitle);

This causes the app to crash with following message:

08:00:24.063: E/AndroidRuntime(11283): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{net.maver1ck.test/net.maver1ck.test.Main}: android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: You cannot combine custom titles with other title features

What are "other title features"? Is that possible to use the ActionBar and a custom title?

Answer 1

This is not so good idea to combine such bars. Insted of it use custom layout only.
