My question is very simple, but i can't figure it out:
When i try to display a subtitle, the toolbar has not enough space do display it and it is cut.
Toolbar:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:actionBarSize"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
app:theme="@style/MyToolBar">
Does ?android:actionBarSize
have not enough height to display title and subtitle correctly?
When I set ToolBar height to wrap_content
everything works, but can anyone explain to me how I should correctly set the height?
styles.xml :
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
<item name="android:windowBackground">@color/background1</item>
<item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/colorAccent</item>
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->
</style>
<style name="MyToolBar" parent="Widget.AppCompat.ActionBar">
<!-- Support library compatibility -->
<item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/colorAccent</item>
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/colorAccent</item>
<item name="colorControlNormal">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
I have used a toolbar with subtitles and as well as using a layout_height="wrap_content"
I also add a minHeight
. This will ensure your toolbar is at least the minimum height. I've not seen it jump in height or crop but I always have a subtitle set.
