检测操作栏项目是在溢出菜单中还是实际显示在操作栏上？

Question

This is one of my items of actionbar -

<item
        android:id="@+id/mode"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_ring_volume"
        android:showAsAction="ifRoom"
        android:title="@string/Ringing_Mode"/>

Here i am using ifRoom in showAsAction . Now it may or may not show on action bar according to the space available. How can i detect if it's showing in overflow menu or its actually displayed on action bar ? (I am not using ActionBarSherlock)

Answer 1

If you are using ActionBarSherlock you can look for the boolean value abs__split_action_bar_is_narrow

Create static method where you can do

return ResourcesCompat.getResources_getBoolean(context,
                            R.bool.abs__split_action_bar_is_narrow);

you need to use the ResourcesCompat (from actionbarsherlock) class.

This will Provide you,if it's showing in overflow menu or its actually displayed on action bar.
