自定义微调器具有白色文本颜色

Question

I want my Action Bar spinner to display it's text in white (like in google maps app), but i'm struggling to get there..

i'm trying something like this:

   <style name="Mepo.Spinner" parent="@android:style/Widget.Spinner">
   <item name="android:spinnerItemStyle">@style/StandardSpinnerItem</item>  
   <item name="spinnerItemStyle">@style/StandardSpinnerItem</item>
   </style>

  <style name="StandardSpinnerItem" parent="@android:style/Widget.TextView.SpinnerItem">
  <item name="android:textAppearance">@android:color/white</item>
  <item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
  </style>

but that has no effect. I know this his probably been asked but i can't find the right solution. any ideas? ps i'm actually using sherlock action bar if that matters

in the end this is what i did, maybe this will help someone:

<style name="Theme.Styled" parent="Theme.Sherlock.Light.DarkActionBar">
        <item name="actionBarStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBar</item>
        <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBar</item>
        <item name="actionDropDownStyle">@style/xxx.ActionBar.DropDown.Style</item>
        <item name="android:actionDropDownStyle">@style/xxx.ActionBar.DropDown.Style</item>
    </style>
   <style name="Widget.Styled.ActionBar" parent="Widget.Sherlock.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
        <item name="background">#0B2F39</item>
        <item name="android:background">#0B2F39</item>
        <item name="backgroundSplit">#0B2F39</item>
        <item name="android:backgroundSplit">#0B2F39</item>
    </style>

    <style name="xxx.ActionBar.DropDown.Style" parent="Widget.Sherlock.Light.Spinner.DropDown.ActionBar">
        <item name="android:background">@drawable/abs__spinner_ab_holo_dark</item>
    </style>

if you have any remark or corretions i would love to hear them

If you already use an custom theme(you extended the base theme and customized it) and you want to customize the spinner only for one activity you need to do this:

<style name="Theme.MyTheme" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
... your other items
</style>

<style name="Theme.MyTheme.Spinner" parent="Theme.MyTheme">
    <item name="android:spinnerItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem</item>
    <item name="android:spinnerDropDownItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem.DropDownItem</item>
</style>

<style name="Spinner" parent="@android:style/Widget.Spinner">
    <item name="android:spinnerItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem</item>
    <item name="android:spinnerDropDownItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem.DropDownItem</item>
</style>    
<style name="SpinnerItem" parent="@android:style/Widget.TextView.SpinnerItem">
    <item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
</style>
<style name="SpinnerItem.DropDownItem" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.DropDownItem.Spinner">
    <item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
</style>

And to use this style in an activity use this:

<activity
    android:name=".YourActivity"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.MyTheme.Spinner"  >
</activity>

If you want to customize the spinner for all the activities(your application) move the items from Theme.MyTheme.Spinner into Theme.MyTheme :

<style name="Theme.MyTheme" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
   ... your other items
   <item name="android:spinnerItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem</item>
   <item name="android:spinnerDropDownItemStyle">@style/SpinnerItem.DropDownItem</item>
</style>
