I am wondering if I could have an image label on actionbar instead of using simple text. I still want to keep the icon on the bar, but I want to enrich the label with the image. .
In order to be more specific I attach an image to see what I want to succeed.
You can customized your actionBar using the android:actionBarStyle
example:
add this in your style xml
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/thin_ab_style</item> the thin_ab_style
<style name="thin_ab_style" parent="@style/Theme.Sherlock"> <item name="android:height">60dp</item> <item name="android:background">@drawable/drop_down_shadow_actionbar</item> <item name="android:icon">@drawable/icon</item> <item name="icon">@drawable/icon</item> </style>
