ICS - Menu Item Text Cut Off?

I'm using the standard onCreateOptionsMenu, but on my Nexus w/ICS, when I tap the vertical menu button in the upper right corner, the dropdown context menu is 3/4 off the screen. B

Solution 1:

I cant really say why its cutting off on the top, but I added this to my manifest.xml.

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black" 

This basically reverts the style back to 2.x menus and places the vertical "dots" on the bottom right.

I actually prefer this over the default compatibility because I still have my icon menus as opposed to plain text-only dropdown menus.

I'd still like to know why the "default" conversion of my menu is screwed up though if anyone can chime in I'll award the solution to that person! (=

Solution 2:

You can try to add this to you manifest:

supports-screens android:anyDensity="true"
