Does anyone know of a way to get the button I just added to appear on the left of the ActionBar please? I want to use it to control a fly out menu on the left.
Menu items appear on the right side of the action bar. You can use StdActionBar library to add a custom view to the or to handle the "action bar main button" click event.
I've hunted through various actionbar libraries and can't seem to find what I need. I looked through the google docs and realised I was trying to replicate the Navigation Drawer stuff in Android.
I had implemented that one, but it is missing the slide in and out 3 bar button at the top. This is used in Trello, YouTube, Google Play etc so I was looking to replicate that. The closest looks like the ActionDrawer lib, but that's not working for me at the moment.
