Android Question Software menu button issue

[Tyler]

Hey, since I changed my SDK version in manifest editor to 14, the software menu button has disappeared, rendering a portion of my code relying on if "If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_MENU Then" useless. I much prefer having my own menu rather than going the "Activity.AddMenuItem" route whenever possible.
Any input is much appreciated!

I dont know whether i understand the question right....

in SDK 14 you need to make your own actionbar with menubutton with one of the Actionbarlibraries (AHActionbar oder StandardActionbar - Libs for ex.)

The three dots menu icon will appear in the action bar if there is no hardware menu button.

Do you mean the one at the top if the activity isn't full screen?

Yes

I'm talking about what's referred to as "software buttons". They replace the device's hardware buttons in android 4.0+.
