Custom title with image

by

It’s possible to set your own custom title layout, however the order of execution matters. You must do things in this order:

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.my_layout);
getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.my_custom_title);

Additionally, you may need to increase the size of the title; if you don’t, then the bottom of your custom layout may just be covered up by your Activity. You can change the size by adding a theme that specifies the title’s size. This would go into a values XML file:

<resources>
    <style name="LargeTitleTheme">
        <item name="android:windowTitleSize">40dip</item>
    </style>
</resources>

Then you’d need to set the theme for your Activity (or Application, if you want the entire application to have this custom title bar) in AndroidManifest.xml:

<activity android:name=".MyCustomTitleActivity" android:theme="@style/LargeTitleTheme" />
