如何使工具栏后退按钮居中？

Question

I'm having a problem trying to center the back button on the support toolbar. I'm using it inside an ActionBarActivity.

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:toolbar="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
    android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
    toolbar:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
    toolbar:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />

And set the up navigation inside the Activity's onCreate() like this:

Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);

getSupportActionBar().setTitle(R.string.title_activity_scanner);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

However, what I'm getting is this:

As you can see the back button is misplaced

Edit: The problem seems to lie in a custom value for ?attr/actionBarSize set to 40dp, however, it turns out now, that it's the title that is misplaced instead.

Answer 1

From the developer.android.com :

Toolbar supports a more focused feature set than ActionBar. From start to end, a toolbar may contain a combination of the following optional elements:

A navigation button. This may be an Up arrow, navigation menu toggle, close, collapse, done or another glyph of the app's choosing. This button should always be used to access other navigational destinations within the container of the Toolbar and its signified content or otherwise leave the current context signified by the Toolbar. The navigation button is vertically aligned within the Toolbar's minimum height, if set.

So if you set minHeight attribute the same as your toolbar height ( layout_height ), the back arrow will be centered vertically.

Answer 2

In case you have a non-standard toolbar height, to center the back button nowadays (2k20) with androidx Toolbar you can just use the buttonGravity property.

This allows you to use wrap_content instead of a specific height ( minHeight doesn't allow you to do so):

<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
   app:buttonGravity="center_vertical"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   ... />

Inside ActionBarActivity

Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
  setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
  getSupportActionBat().setTitle("Hello World"); 
  getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
  getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);

Layout code :

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:background="@color/primary"
        app:theme="@style/ToolbarTheme"
        app:popupTheme="@style/Theme.AppCompat"/>

And style :

 <style name="AppTheme.Base" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light">
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/primary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/primaryDark</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
</style>

<style name="AppTheme" parent="AppTheme.Base">

Remember that toolbar is just viewgroup, so u can style it in any way u like. Here is image link : Toolbar sample

Hope it helps.

Best way to achieve this is remove regular Back button from the toolbar and add a custom ImageButton in your XML layout and set image to it. You can place this ImageButtton wherever you want on the toolbar.

Your activity layout code should be something like this.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        layout="@layout/toolbar" />

    <ImageButton
        android:layout_width="60dp"
        android:layout_height="60dp"
        android:id="@+id/button"
        android:src="@drawable/attach_icon"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />

</RelativeLayout>

Piggybacking off of @Rick Sanchez answer - if you know the size of the Toolbar's minHeight attribute you can then use:

android:gravity="top"
app:titleMarginTop="@dimen/margin_to_center"

in the Toolbar to center the text. If you are using android:minHeight="?actionBarSize" then this would be about 13p

Answer 6

For me, none of the solutions worked. In my case the problem was the margin I applied:

 <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     ... >

     <View
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />

 </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

After applying it to the toolbar directly, the button was centered vertically:

 <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
     android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
     ... >

     <View
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

 </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

Answer 7

@Rick Sanchez answer is work,setup Toolbar's layout_height the same as minHeight

I found in Toolbar constructor have a field can setup button gravity, mButtonGravity = a.getInteger(R.styleable.Toolbar_buttonGravity, Gravity.TOP);

,but v7 support Toolbar can not setup, mButtonGravity = Gravity.TOP;

Answer 8

让你的按钮大小56dp和集scaleType到center与无边距Appbar确保你的图标是24x24尺寸

Answer 9

I was using

  <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ActionBar">

when I should've been using

 <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Toolbar">
