I’m trying now for hours to override the AppCombat theme for custom tab style, but my changes have no effect. Here is my style.xml
<style name="AppTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light">
<item name="actionBarTabStyle">@style/MyActionBarTabs.AppTheme</item>
</style>
<style name="MyActionBarTabs.AppTheme" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ActionBar.TabView">
<item name="background">@drawable/tab_bar_background</item>
</style>
I use android-support-libray-v7 for use ActionBarTabStylein older versions of Android. This is tab_bar_background.xml
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="false"
android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="true"
android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="false"
android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="true"
android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="false"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="true"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="false"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="true"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/boni_red" />
In the class, TabActivityI just add some tabs using TabHost, and the layout for this action is as follows:
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/TabBarLinearLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="@+id/header_logo"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:background="@color/boni_red"
android:text="@string/app_name_capital"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:gravity="center"
android:textSize="25sp"/>
<FrameLayout
android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</FrameLayout>
<TabWidget
android:id="@android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0">
</TabWidget>
</LinearLayout>
I just followed the tutorial presented by the Android developers page . The tablet in my application looks like light in the picture.
