setHomeAsUpIndicator() for my actionbar in Android Studio doesn't appear to be working
I am changing the default arrow in the actionbar to a dropdown menu icon. Here is the code for my actionbar:
Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();
actionbar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
actionbar.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.menu);
The problem is, the icon has not changed from a back arrow to a menu icon. The menu in drawable is a jpg file, so I don't see why there would be issues using it to replace the back arrow. Any suggestions?

Try getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
etSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.upbutton);
Here is the source.

It didn't appear to do anything at all. I tried changing the drawable I pass to setHomeAsUpIndicator() to other images, but they all had the same outcome.

You can use this Code:-
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.back_arrow_icon_drawable);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
and Override this Method :-
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
onBackPressed();
break;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
Hope it will helps you

You can use this Code:-
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.back_arrow_icon_drawable);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
and Override this Method :-
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
onBackPressed();
break;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
Hope it will helps you
