LA3QMA Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 2, 2013 #1 "The menu button doesn't show" using "targetSdkVersion="11" because i'm using the GoogleMaps library. Is there a workaround for this? Or something i can do so that older devices do not install and crash? Or is it possible to include the GoogleMaps library and only execute if android 3+ are in use?

Code: Copy Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode as Int, y as String) If KeyCode = KeyCode.KEYCODE_MENU then StartActivity(prefsscreen.CreateIntent) ........ Its there if i reduce android:minSdkVersion="11" to i.e android:minSdkVersion="8" But then this is going to be a problem with the GoogleMap Upvote 0

NJDude Expert Licensed User Longtime User Sep 9, 2013 #8 The 3 dots will show only if there are any menu items (Android 3+) older versions displayed the button regardless but the menu button has been deprecated by Google. Upvote 0

Click to expand... Ok. It's working if i "downgrade" the sdkversion. But if it's deprecated are there any other options that are compatible for both android 3+ and 3- ? I need a menu so that the user can make some changes. Upvote 0

NJDude Expert Licensed User Longtime User Sep 9, 2013 #10 Like I mentioned before, if there are no menu items the menu button won't show up, so, you will have to add at least one, or instead of the menu use an ActionBar which the recommended way. Upvote 0
