Menu
Is it possible to change the overflow icon in the action bar? I have blue icons for all ActionBar items and I also want to change the overflow icon when it appears.

The right-hand side of the action bar shows the actions. The action buttons (3) show the most important actions of your app. Actions that do not fit in the action bar are moved to the action overflow, and an overflow icon appears on the right.
The ActionBar, now known as the App Bar, is a consistent navigation element that is standard throughout modern Android applications. The ActionBar can consist of: An application icon. An "upward" navigation to logical parent.
This can be achieved by setting the android:textColorSecondary theme attribute.
You can with a style, but you have to add it to the main Theme declaration.
<resources> <!-- Base application theme. --> <style name="Your.Theme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo"> <!-- Pointer to Overflow style ***MUST*** go here or it will not work --> <item name="android:actionOverflowButtonStyle">@style/OverFlow</item> </style> <!-- Styles --> <style name="OverFlow" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionButton.Overflow"> <item name="android:src">@drawable/ic_action_overflow</item> </style> </resources> You also can change it dynamically, which I go into detail about here:
