What is ExtendedActionBar?

ExtendedActionBar is an example of how to extend the ActionBar under the status bar from the theme.

In this repository I show how to achieve an illusion of “ActionBar extension” (look at the code to see what it means). It is unfortunately more of a hack than a proper solution, but that is due to the fact that the required components (namely @android:dimen/status_bar_height and the ability to create custom drawables, as the ones provided are barely usable and highly bugged) have been banned by the Gods.
