I'm using background image in my toolbar, and from some reason the toolbar is working only with mipmap and not with drawable.
In my app_bar_main.xml file:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="@mipmap/bar"
app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
As you can see I've used mipmap instead of drawable, though when I'm using drawable the application crashes and the following error is given:
Binary XML file line #11: Binary XML file line #16: Error inflating class android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
Must mention this mipmap using is just making my app very slow, and it skipping frames, so I would like to change it to drawable.
How can I change the toolbar background resource of the image from mipmap to drawable?
EDIT:
Style.xml
<resources>
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
<style name="LightDialogTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">
<item name="android:textColor">@android:color/primary_text_light</item>
<item name="background">@drawable/bar</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.AppBarOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />
<style name="AppTheme.PopupOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
</resources>
Seems your xml file is perfect. What I suggest ,Just resize that image or prepare background image with different different size, which you want to set in to your toolbar and put it in to different drawables / mipmap folders.
android:background="@mipmap/bar"
as we know icon size should be ,
- drawable-ldpi (120 dpi, Low density screen) - 36px x 36px
- drawable-mdpi (160 dpi, Medium density screen) - 48px x 48px
- drawable-hdpi (240 dpi, High density screen) - 72px x 72px
- drawable-xhdpi (320 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 96px x 96px
run your app again and do let me know .
Please add this code in your app level build.gradle file
android {
defaultConfig {
.....
vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
}
}
toolbar_default.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar

ToolBarStyle
<style name="ToolBarStyle" parent="">
<item name="popupTheme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light</item>
<item name="theme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar</item>
</style>
Other Please remove below line from you toolbar and try to check it work or not.I am not sure but you just check it.
app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay"
