I've developed a simple demo application with a splash screen a map and some regular screens.
I have an action bar at the top that contains a logo. It all looks fine on my phone (Galaxy s1 I9000 V2.3) but when i test it on Galaxy s2 v4 the action bar appears also in the splash screen and in the map screen.
The spalsh and map activity are not even inheriting from ActionBarActivity so how is that possible and how can i make it go away?
Manifest:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light" >
<activity
android:name=".HomeActivity"
android:icon="@drawable/android_logo"
android:label=""
android:logo="@drawable/android_logo" >
<!--
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
-->
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".MapActivity"
android:label="" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".PackageActivity"
android:icon="@drawable/android_logo"
android:label=""
android:logo="@drawable/android_logo" >
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:label="" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
MapActivity definition (it's a long one so i included just the definition):
public class MapActivity extends FragmentActivity implements LocationListener
Splash Activity:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBar;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
public class SplashActivity extends Activity{
private static final long SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGTH = 2000;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable(){
@Override
public void run() {
Intent mainIntent = new Intent(SplashActivity.this,HomeActivity.class);
SplashActivity.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
SplashActivity.this.finish();
}
}, SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGTH);
}
}
This works in API 27
In the styles.xml replace code to the following....
Then in the files (eg. activity_list.xml) in which you do want to have a toolbar put the following code.
If you have problems switch to linear layout (because that is what this code is tested on)
1.Go to your
manifest.xml
file.2.
Find
theactivity tag
for which you want to hide your ActionBar and thenadd
,Check for padding attribute if the issue still exists after changing theme.
Padding Issue creating a white space on top of fragment window / app window
Once you remove the padding - top value automatically the white space is removed.
