Theme Overlay Material Toolbar

[beppo-ivel]

If I click the 3 dots in the toolbar the menu-items pop up. And I want to change their text color. But I can't find the correct property

platform/android/res/values/myTheme.xml:

...
<style name="MyThemeOverlay_Toolbar" parent="@style/ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.Primary">
    <item name="actionMenuTextColor">#48a697</item>
    <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">#48a697</item>
...

Also I can't find property to set the background of the popup menu to transparent.

You really need to update your google-game 🤣

It took me more time to create the Titanium code for the menu 😄

Full XML example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

<style name="defaultTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight">
	<item name="android:actionOverflowButtonStyle">@style/MyCustomTheme</item>
	<item name="actionOverflowButtonStyle">@style/MyCustomTheme</item>

	<item name="actionOverflowMenuStyle">@style/menubackground</item>

	<item name="android:itemTextAppearance">@style/TextAppearance</item>
</style>

<style name="MyCustomTheme" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ActionButton.Overflow">
	<item name="android:tint">#f00</item>
</style>

<style name="menubackground" parent="Widget.AppCompat.PopupMenu.Overflow">
     <item name="android:popupBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>

<style name="TextAppearance">
    <item name="android:textColor">#0ff</item>
</style>

</resources>

will show red dots, aqua text in the popup and a transparent popup menu.

Tell me how ;) Can't resolve the pattern behind those naming conventions. It looks like I have to google for random attributes, which contains by random parent classes. For instance why there is no property for item-text-color in ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.Primary? Or why there is no ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.PopupMenu.Overflow or ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.PopupMenu ?

Also if I set <item name="android:background">#0f34</item> then this style affects the <item name="android:popupBackground">#0342</item> as well.

I've just searched for android actionbar popup background color or android actionbar change dot color and it will show Stackoverflow posts right away. Android Theming is always a "google around" topic for me 😄
