Android Question Problems with AppCompat

[Matteo Granatiero]

Previously I had added the 2 colors for the Layout in the Manifest Editor.
Now changing them, they are changed but in some controls as the Spinner remains the background of the list the old color. I checked everywhere if the old color was still inserted but there is no trace. How can I solve?

Hard to say. Have you added any resource files to Objects\res ?

No, just the app icon in the folder :drawable
the folder "values" contains the file "theme.xml".. it's that the problem?

No, just the app icon in the folder :drawable

So the Answer is YES; Not NO. Make sure to set the file to readonly if you dont want to get it removed when compiling.

Or add a 2nd Resource and put the File here. You need to reference the other Resource with #additionalres: [path]

I put the theme file read-only and the situation does not change. I did not understand the second method

The best way to handle the theme files is with the CreateResource in the manifest editor.

See this example: AppCompat with ToolBar - minimal example

Note that no file is manually added to the res folders.
