Answer 1

You can create and handle option menu items in fragments as follows:

1. In onCreate or onCreateView call setHasOptionsMenu(true)

2. Override onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu, MenuInflater) and inflate the fragment related menu there

3. Override onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem) and handle menu option clicks there
