Feature: Possible to change up cavat icon to drawer icon? about actionbarextras HOT 9 CLOSED

Hi Mads,

Shouldn't the drawer provide the drawer icon?
This is usually set up with a ActionBarDrawerToggle which ties together the icon and the drawer layout. I can't think of a scenario where it would make sense to set it up without a drawer. Or isn't this what you want?

well forget that icon then.. is it possible to change that icon. lets imagine its a menu icon that is not a drawer, and you want another icon than a back button cavat.

I've never tried but I'm pretty sure this is possible. You could either do this by theme:
<item name="android:homeAsUpIndicator">@drawable/my_custom_indicator</item>

or change it at runtime (needs to be exposed) but I'm afraid it would behave like hiding the actionbar at runtime: you'll see the up icon for a second before it's changing to the menu icon.

But wouldn't it be another solution to use the actionBar.icon property for this?

i already did this by theme, but then it overrides it for the entire app, cause titanium does not have specific activities for each "window" in the app.

I tried the actionBar.icon property, but to my testing it is implemented wrong and actually switching out the app icon instead of the up button icon.

Since 3.4.0 Ti.UI.Window has a theme property which gives you the ability to set a theme for a specific window.

Yeah, forget the icon property, stupid idea. Of course this replaces just the icon.

Ok, I'm going to try this asap!

hmm yeah, that might work in 3.4.0
