Changing The Background Color Of A Popup Menu

In my Android app, I am using a popup menu but its background is green. I want it to be white. The background is white if I run it on my Android 6.0 device, but shows up green on

Solution 1:

You can brash the popup menu by using Android Action Bar Style Generator(or create a 9patch background by your own).

So all I did was - specify proper colour in the generator, get 9patched background(menu_dropdown_panel_background.9.png) back and set it as a background:

<stylename="AppTheme"parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"><itemname="popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenu.Example</item></style><stylename="PopupMenu.Example"parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.PopupMenu"><itemname="android:popupBackground">@drawable/menu_dropdown_panel_background</item></style>

That's it!
