Android Question Making Tool Bar appear below status bar

Hi there.

I am experimenting with some of the AppCompat code which creates Tool bars - specifically corwin42's code.

His code nicely places the ToolBar underneath the status bar. My code doesn't. I've checked the designer and I have copied the script across to make sure the panel resizes.

Is there a particular trick to making sure a Tool bar positions itself correctly under the status bar?

And is there a way to position a tool bar at the bottom of a view rather than at the top? I tried putting it down at the bottom in the Designer, but all the content disappeared.

Confused.

Still not working. I forgot to mention that my code embeds the View with the Tool Bar inside a sliding drawer. I wonder if that mkes a difference

I will post some demo code.

The example doesn't work properly when you run it as-is?

The example works with no problems. Mine doesn't, but I wonder if it is because it is embedded in a sliding drawer...
