Changing the ActionBar hide animation?

Question

By default in Android 3.0+, when ActionBar.hide()/show() are called the bar is animated with a brief fade in/out animation.

There does not seem to be an XML style attri

Answer 1

Neither of solutions doesn't work for me so I try this to disable animation at all:

public void setActionBarVisible(boolean isVisible) {
    View decorView = getWindow().getDecorView();
    int resId;
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB
        || Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
        resId = getResources().getIdentifier(
                "action_bar_container", "id", getPackageName());
    } else {
        resId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier(
                "action_bar_container", "id", "android");
    }
    if (resId != 0) {
        decorView.findViewById(resId).setVisibility(isVisible ? View.VISIBLE : View.GONE);
    }
}

And it works just fine for me. You can try to animate whole action bar viewGroup to achieve similar effect.
