actionbar sherlock - how to set background image for activity area in the theme

I am using actionbar sherlock and it works very well. The only problem I have is to figure out how to set the background image for the area which is used by the activities. All I end up with is setting a background image for the actionbar itself.

Any suggestion highly appreciated

  • The windowBackground attribute is perfect for this.

    <style name="MyTheme" parent="Theme.Sherlock">
    <item name="android:windowBackground">here!</item>
</style>
