Android - Standard height of toolbar

I want to create a toolbar in my app, and I am wondering what is the standard height for the toolbar in android?

I want it to be big enough for a finger, but not huge. Is there standard size?


Solution 1:

Its best to use ?attr/actionBarSize as @Jaison Brooks commented.

In the material guidelines, suggested height is 56dp:

Toolbar: 56dp

Solution 2:

The recommended minimum size for touchable elements is 48 dp, see this page for more detailed metrics.

Solution 3:

In addition to @vedant1811 answer, you can programmatically obtain actionBarSize from attrs:

TypedValue tv = new TypedValue();
if (context.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.actionBarSize, tv, true))
{
    actionBarHeight = TypedValue.complexToDimensionPixelSize(tv.data, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
}
