Is there a way to reduce the spacing between the Action Item Icons on Action Bar?

Question

I wanted to reduce the spacing bettween Action Item icons added to the ActionBar. Is there a way we can do this?

Answer 1

use a custom android:actionButtonStyle.

<item name="android:actionButtonStyle">@style/ActionButtonStyle</item> 

and the magic is here:

<style name="ActionButtonStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionButton">     <item name="android:minWidth">0dip</item>     <item name="android:paddingLeft">0dip</item>     <item name="android:paddingRight">0dip</item>                   </style> 

normaly minWidth is set to 56 dip.
