I need to display a MasterDetailPage with NavigationPages for both Master and Detail. On tablets the Master should always be visible, so I use MasterBehavior.Split.
That's how it works on iOS. On Android however, it did not work at all without AppCompat. There was only one Action Bar and I couldn't navigate through both trees.
Now I followed James' and Jason's descriptions on how to enable AppCompat for Xamarin.Forms and it looks much better. Well, that's not correct. It works better, but it does not look better. I can navigate through both Master and Detail and also use all the ToolbarItems, but as you can see in the screenshot, the UI has two problems.
1) the toolbar of the master page is too far up
2) the ToolbarItems are not tinted
The two descriptions for activating Material design differ slightly in the style.xml and toolbar.axml, but I tried both versions.
Does anybody know how I can fix that?
I also attached a sample project illustrating the issue.
