I use Toolbar and Menu in my class.

Here is the menu_main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 

<group android:checkableBehavior="all"> <item android:id="@+id/menu_main_checkbox" android:title="checkbox" app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatCheckBox" app:showAsAction="ifRoom" /> </group> <item android:id="@+id/menu_main_delete" android:title="@string/menu_main_delete" app:showAsAction="never" /> <item android:id="@+id/menu_main_rename" android:title="@string/menu_main_rename" app:showAsAction="never" /> <item android:id="@+id/menu_main_copy" android:title="@string/menu_main_copy" app:showAsAction="never" /> <item android:id="@+id/menu_main_new_folder" android:title="@string/menu_main_new_folder" app:showAsAction="never" />

And here is what it is now:

  • are you doing any handling in Java when user presses the checkbox? If so, can you show the code here on what you do when AppCompatCheckBox is pressed? Commented Sep 19, 2016 at 2:48

You can change checkbox color directly in the xml. Use buttonTint value for the box: (as of API level 23)

<CheckBox android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:buttonTint="@color/CHECK_COLOR" />

You can also do this using appCompatCheckbox v7 for older APIs:

<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatCheckBox android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" app:buttonTint="@color/COLOR_HERE" />
