I know this question has been asked before here and I've looked at the solutions. I want to narrow the space between arrow and title, the below image has too much space.
The most popular solution is to put in app:contentInsetStartWithNavigation="0dp" in my toolbar XML code like:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:theme="@style/CustomToolbarStyle"
app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
app:contentInsetStartWithNavigation="0dp"/>
When I do that though and run my app I get the error message:
Error:(100) No resource identifier found for attribute 'contentInsetStartWithNavigation' in package 'com.packagename'
Googling that error led me to trying solutions instead like adding to my XML:
android:contentInsetStart="0dp"
android:contentInsetLeft="0dp"
android:contentInsetRight="0dp"
android:contentInsetEnd="0dp"
app:contentInsetLeft="0dp"
app:contentInsetStart="0dp"
app:contentInsetRight="0dp"
app:contentInsetEnd="0dp"
But when I load my app, the spacing between arrow and title does not change, there's still a big space.
I'm using CoordinatorLayout in my XML but don't see why that should make any difference.
Also, in my XML when I replace
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
with
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.mypackage.name"
as per this solution: error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'adSize' in package 'com.google.example' main.xml
I still get the error.
Here's the java code for my activity, in onCreate:
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
//Show the arrow to go back
ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();
actionbar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
//show the App title
actionbar.setTitle("Pop");
And here is my xml layout for the activity:
