I am trying to set text at the end of menu as menuItem but I ve tried app:showAsAction="always|withText" in for menu item but the text is not displaying to its full length infact its getting congested.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

    <item

        app:itemIconTint="@color/white"

        android:id="@+id/next_btn"

        android:title="@string/next"

        app:showAsAction="always|withText"

        />

</menu>

Toolbar:

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar



    android:id="@+id/toolbar"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    android:background="@color/colorPrimary"

    app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay">

    <LinearLayout

        android:layout_centerInParent="true"

        android:orientation="vertical"

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_gravity="center"

        >

        <TextView

            android:textSize="18sp"

            android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"

            android:textColor="@color/white"

            android:text="@string/recomended"

            android:id="@+id/title_main"

            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

        <TextView

            android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"



            android:textColor="@color/white"

            android:textSize="9sp"

            android:text="@string/choose_your_friends"

            android:id="@+id/title_secondary"

            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />



    </LinearLayout>





</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>





toolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.next_menu);

  @Override

    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.next_menu, menu);

        return true;

    }

It works for me, in my ToolBar I see action button only text "today", without icon:

<menu

    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

    <item

        android:id="@+id/action_иет"

        android:orderInCategory="200"

        android:title="today"

        app:showAsAction="ifRoom" />

</menu>

try without withText, only ifRoom:

app:showAsAction="ifRoom"

Remove an icon from menu item and set app:showAsAction="always" to show text:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

    >



    <item

        android:id="@+id/action_edit"

        android:title="@string/edit"

        app:showAsAction="always"

        />

</menu>

If nothing appeared, you can override text color to not show white text on white background (see Android Toolbar menu text color). Add these lines in your AppTheme style:

<item name="actionMenuTextColor">@color/gray</item>

<item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@color/gray</item>

If this won't help, see variants in How to display both icon and title of action inside ActionBar?.
