Here we've added a new support namespace added to the menu element allowing us to use the 'showAsAction' attribute in a backwards compatible way. Any other action item attributes used should be referenced from this namespace too (actionProviderClass, actionViewClass, actionLayout). --> <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:support="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" > <!-- Here we create an item, setting support:showAsAction to display the item as an action if there's room on the compatible Action Bar. --> <item android:id="@+id/menu_refresh" android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_refresh" android:title="@string/menu_refresh" support:showAsAction="ifRoom"/> <!-- Location item is added in onCreateOptionsMenu() --> <!-- Here we set the settings item to always be in the overflow menu, by setting support:showAsAction to never, so it is never displayed as an action item on the compatible Action Bar. --> <item android:id="@+id/menu_settings" android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_settings" android:title="@string/menu_settings" support:showAsAction="never"/> </menu>
