Using Theme.AppCompat.Light tells Android that you want the framework to provide an ActionBar for you. However, you are creating your own ActionBar (a Toolbar), so you are giving the framework mixed signals as to where you want the ActionBar to come from. Since you are using a Toolbar, you want Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar. The next step is … Read more

You can use the AppCompatActivity since it extends FragmentActivity which extends ComponentActivity. class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) setContent { val activity = LocalContext.current as AppCompatActivity Button(onClick={ showDatePicker(activity)}){ Text(“Picker”) } } } } fun showDatePicker(activity: AppCompatActivity){ val picker = MaterialDatePicker.Builder.datePicker().build() activity?.let { picker.show(it.supportFragmentManager, picker.toString()) picker.addOnPositiveButtonClickListener { } } } Note: … Read more

The whole point of AppCompat is that you only need one theme (you don’t need a separate one in values-v21) and it will be the same experience on all devices. Theme.AppCompat already extends android:Theme.Material on API 21+ – it is just handling all of the version checking for you.
@Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present. // getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_patient_home_screen, menu); menu.add(0, 1, 1, menuIconWithText(getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.user_2), getResources().getString(R.string.action_profile))); menu.add(0, 2, 2, menuIconWithText(getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.add_user), getResources().getString(R.string.action_add_user))); menu.add(0, 3, 3, menuIconWithText(getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.switch_profile), getResources().getString(R.string.action_switch_profile))); menu.add(0, 4, 4, menuIconWithText(getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.logout), getResources().getString(R.string.action_sign_out))); return true; } @Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { // Handle … Read more

Your application has an AppCompat theme <application android:theme=”@style/AppTheme”> But, you overwrote the Activity (which extends AppCompatActivity) with a theme that isn’t descendant of an AppCompat theme <activity android:name=”.MainActivity” android:theme=”@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen” > You could define your own fullscreen theme like so (notice AppCompat in the parent=) <style name=”AppFullScreenTheme” parent=”Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar”> <item name=”android:windowNoTitle”>true</item> <item name=”android:windowActionBar”>false</item> <item name=”android:windowFullscreen”>true</item> <item name=”android:windowContentOverlay”>@null</item> … Read more
As Chris wrote, new deprecated version of ActionBarActivity (the one extending AppCompatActivity class) is a safe to use backward compatibility class. Its deprecation is just a hint for you asking to use new AppCompatActivity directly instead. AppCompatActivity is a new, more generic implementation which uses AppCompatDelegate class internally. If you start a new development, then … Read more
I thought Activity was deprecated No. So for API Level 22 (with a minimum support for API Level 15 or 16), what exactly should I use both to host the components, and for the components themselves? Are there uses for all of these, or should I be using one or two almost exclusively? Activity is … Read more
