Android平板电脑应用程序-ActionBar

Question

We are trying to build an Android App for Samsung Galaxy Tablets. Is there a way we can increase the height of the ActionBar? We are using Android 3.1 API 12.

Answer 1

You can apply a custom theme to your application.

Create styles.xml in your res/values/ directory and add something like this:

<style name="CustomTheme" parent="android:style/Theme">
    <item name="android:actionBarSize">@dimen/action_bar_default_height</item>
</style>

Then create dimens.xml in your res/values/ directory and add something like this:

<resources>
    <dimen name="action_bar_default_height">55dp</dimen>
</resources>

Then in your application manifest set the theme of the application like this:

<application
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:logo="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:theme="@style/CustomTheme" >
...
</application>
