I need to add a Checkbox
in Android App bar
. my Menu_main
as follow:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" tools:context=".MainActivity">
<item android:id="@+id/action_search"
android:title="search"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_search"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView" />
</menu>
Right now it's showing Title
and search
icon. How can I add a Checkbox
in Bar
right next to Search
icon?
There are two ways to add CheckBox
in menu .
1. User direct class (Action View) e.g
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context=".tariff.ui.SearchOffersActivity">
<item
android:id="@+id/action_search"
android:icon="@android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
android:title="@string/search"
app:actionViewClass="android.support.v7.widget.SearchView"
app:showAsAction="collapseActionView|always" />
<item
android:id="@+id/action_checkbox"
app:actionViewClass="android.widget.CheckBox"
android:title="@string/filter"
app:showAsAction="always" />
</menu>
2- You can use custom layout LINK
