Set a Bitmap as home icon in ActionBarSherlock

Question

Is there a way to set a Bitmap (representing a contact photo retrieved from the address book) as the home icon in the ActionBarSherlock.

Answer 1

Given your Bitmap bmp just use a BitmapDrawable like this:

Resources res = getResources();
BitmapDrawable icon = new BitmapDrawable(res,bmp);
getSupportActionBar().setIcon(icon);
