Menu does not appear in the actionbar(android studio kotlin) - android-studio

Hi guys I can't get my dropdown menu to show up in my action bar.
In the menu.item.xml, the menu bar appears in the menu split view, however upon loading it on the emulator the menu disappears.
I can't find any solutions in the existing forums on StackOverflow.
Menu.item.xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
android:id="#+id/miProfile"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_name"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
android:title="Profile"
android:iconTint="#color/white"
>
<menu>
<item
android:id="#+id/menuSortNewest"
android:title="Sort by newest" />
<item
android:id="#+id/menuSortRating"
android:title="Sort by rating" />
</menu>
</item>
</menu>
Main activity implementation of the onOptionsItemSelected
override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean{
val navHostFragment =
supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentContainerView) as NavHostFragment
val navController = navHostFragment.navController
return when (item.itemId) {
R.id.menuSortNewest -> {
navController.navigate(R.id.action_home2_to_hamster)
true
}
R.id.menuSortRating -> {
navController.navigate(R.id.action_home2_to_dog)
true
}
else -> super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
}
}
Toolbar in the activitymain.xml
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"

<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar

Android studio navigation bar toolbar

i followed one of the tutorials in creating navigation bar in android studio. But in the end i the result i got was that then i click item in the navigation bar it closes instantly without taking any action and changing fragment.
you can slide it to the side and open but whenever i am trying to push item to trigger some kind of action even toast it doesn't work. it just closes to the side like it doesn't react to any action.
public class TrackerActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements LocationListener, NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
private DrawerLayout drawer;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_tracker);
Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
drawer = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
//Menu kad matytume kuris pazymetas
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
//first time opening activity if statement is for rotating screen so it wouldn;t reload
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_container, new TruckTrailerRegistrationFragment()).commit();
navigationView.setCheckedItem(R.id.nav_truck_trailer_registration);
}
}
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
switch (menuItem.getItemId()) {

}
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
// We don't want to leave activity when menu is open we want to close it

remove integrated toolbar from googleMap fragment in Android Studio (Kotlin)

I'm trying to build a simple app with GoogleMap API and I have custom tool bar.
The problem: I want to remove the default toolbar from the fragment.
activity .xml:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".activities.BillboardsMap"
android:orientation="vertical">
<include
android:id="#+id/tool_bar_back_billbo"
layout="#layout/tool_bar_back_billbo"
/>
<androidx.fragment.app.FragmentContainerView
android:id="#+id/map"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
onCreate function:
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
binding = ActivityBillboardsMapBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
setContentView(binding.root)
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
val mapFragment = supportFragmentManager
.findFragmentById(R.id.map) as SupportMapFragment
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this)
}
Is it possible to remove the toolbar with the title "BillboardsMap"?
Thanks in advance.
Try this -
STEP 1 -In style.xml or theme.xml add this custom new style.
<style name="NoToolbar" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
STEP 2- In manifest.xml add this code for your activity.
<activity
....
android:theme="#style/NoToolbar" //ADD this line for your activity class
> </activity>

Unresolved reference: fab, and inability to infer a type for parameter view

I seem to be stuck at the MainActivity.kt file and my app won't debug as it shows the mentioned errors.
This is for a music player app with a Navigation Drawer.
Edit : I have added the layout file after the comment as requested.
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(), NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
setSupportActionBar(toolbar)
fab.setOnClickListener { view->
Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show()
}
val toggle = ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer_layout, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close)
drawer_layout.addDrawerListener(toggle)
toggle.syncState()
nav_view.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this)
}
//as someone asked for the layout file as well here it is

There is no component called fab in your xml layout file. You still have the line of code that access a component called fab from your class. Remove
fab.setOnClickListener { view->
Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show()
}
It should get it to work.

Android Navigation Drawer Icon remove right margin

so I'm fairly new to Java and Android development and I've hit a snag.
So I have created a custom Actionbar with much more height. It has at least 1 visible textview (depending on the fragment). My issue is I want my textviews aligned to the left of the app bar (directly below the nav drawer icon) but when my nav drawer button is generated in the top left it pushes my views to the right.
Does anyone know how to stop the toolbar's child views being essentially pushed over when the icon is added. (code below)

P.S I am aware I shouldn't manually set 'dp' values for margins etc. at this point I am just trying to get it to look right. I'll go back and make it more dynamically scalable later.

super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_options, menu);
}
/** Actions for the ContextMenu items */
#Override

//AdapterContextMenuInfo info = (AdapterContextMenuInfo) item.getMenuInfo();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.CtxLblOpc1:
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Option 2",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
return true;
default:
return super.onContextItemSelected(item);
}
}
but i not see the contextmenu, please help, thanks
I guess you should try to add (in layout)
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
in your layout.
You can give a look here
I suggest you to use the context menu with ActionMode.Callback. If you want an example look here
