Styling The Progressbar In Actionbarsherlock

The horizontal progressbar in ActionbarSherlock is too thin, and is very hard to see. How can I style it to be a few pixels thicker? I've tried applying a custom style in styles.xm

Solution 1:

Instead of attempting to make the ProgressBar thicker, try using a color that contrasts from the ActionBar color to make it stand out, and be noticible.

That's what I did with my app. I have a grey ActionBar, with a bright red ProgressBar.

Hope this helps!
