Android ActionBar不显示图标

Question

I have seen this question asked many times, however, none of those solutions have helped me. My problem is that I have an ActionBar menu and I want its items to always be displayed on the ActionBar instead of the drop down menu.

I have tried actions suchs as "ifRoom", "always", etc. and they still show only with text on the drop down menu.

Menu: devotional_fragment_actions.xml

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item android:id="@+id/action_previous"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_previous_item"
        android:title="@string/previous_action"
        app:showAsAction="always"/>
    <item android:id="@+id/action_search"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_go_to_today"
        android:title="@string/date_action"
        app:showAsAction="always"/>
    <item android:id="@+id/action_next"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_next_item"
        android:title="@string/next_action"
        app:showAsAction="always"/>
</menu>

On my fragment I have:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setHasOptionsMenu(true);
}

@Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
    // action bar
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.devotional_fragment_actions, menu);
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // handle item selection of action bar
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.action_search:
            showDatePickerDialog();
            return true;
        default:
            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
}

The menu works fine but is not displaying as I want it. Thanks

In each item use android namespace instead of app . You can even remove this namespace declaration xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" .

Try set it like in code below:

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+id/action_previous"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_previous_item"
        android:title="@string/previous_action"
        android:showAsAction="always"/>
</menu>
