I I have created a ActionBar using ActionBarSherlock. I want to display the three horizontal lines for the home option instead of the back arrow.

If I change it to :-

  getSupportActionBar.SetDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
  getSupportActionBar.SetHomeButtonEnabled(false);
  getSupportActionBar.SetIcon(Resource.Drawable.ic_drawer_dark);

Then the desired icon is shown but the app icon does not show. Also I want to display a dropdown option when the Home option is clicked.

I tried doing the dropdown by using a spinner and applying it to:-

    getSupportActionBar().setCustomView(spinner);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowCustomEnabled(true);

But the getSupportActionBar().setCustomView(spinner); does not take the spinner and throws the error that I need to pass a int value to it.

Any ideas?
