One thing that bugs me from time to time is the appearance and disappearance of the Action bar or the change in its UI with similar XML code and Java API calls but with different themes. I was somehow managing till now but then decided that it’s probably a good time to understand the concept of themes and styles in android to make sure I know why there’s that frustrating difference just by a small change in the theme name (res/values/styles.xml
then used in AndroidManifest.xml
) that you sometimes do not even realize while creating new projects as it is set automatically based on the API levels you target.
