How do I make a tool bar (like a secondary action bar) in Android?

Question

The gmail app has this tool bar that looks similar to an action bar (even including an overflow menu). It is a blue bar about 1/4 down the screen. See Image 1:

The bar I want is pointed out with a red arrow. I looked through the documentation and didn't see a widget that does this. How can I make a bar like this?

Also if you see the orange arrow below it appears that this app has both an action bar up top and at the bottom. I'm curious how this is done but my main question is how to make tool bar similar to an action bar wherever I want on screen.

Image 1 is on a Phone. I've also included Image 2 and Image 3 below which are a 7" tablet and 10" tablet respectively. Note that the "split" action bar is on a single bar with tablet views.

Answer 1

For the orange bar, you should simply be able to add this tag to your manifest (under your activity tag):

android:uiOptions="splitActionBarWhenNarrow"

As for the red one, I would imagine it's simply a LinearLayout with a QuickContactBadge, TextViews, and and a few Buttons -- not an actual ActionBar instance.
