Android action bar - disable options menu

How do I disable an option menu item from the action bar?

I made my own panel to display the * .png logo, but I don't want to display the 3-dot option menu button.

I tried to find some solution but nothing seems to work.

Monkey's answer code will do what you want, but as a side effect, it also won't let you add ANY items to the action bar at all. I believe the correct answer is

@Override
public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu (Menu menu) {
    return false;
}


Is this what you want.

Just remove the method public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)

from your activity.

In the java class containing the code for the application you are developing, all you have to do is remove the following method:

@Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
    super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
}

This is automatically created in your default project. This is why you need to remove it.

Hope it helps :)

If you want this, there is no need to override the method onCreateOptionsMenu

in your activity.
Leave this with an empty block.
