Theming

cascade is great for apps that prefer applying dynamic themes at runtime, which PopupMenu makes it extremely hard to do so. By providing a CascadePopupMenu.Styler object, you can adjust colors, spacings and text styles from Kotlin (example).

CascadePopupMenu(
  styler = CascadePopupMenu.Styler(…)
)

By default, cascade will pick up values from your theme in the same way as PopupMenu would.

<style name="AppTheme">
  <item name="popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenuStyle</item>
  <item name="colorControlNormal">@color/menu_icon_color</item>
  <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/menu_item_text_color</item>
  <item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/menu_title_text_color</item>
</style>

<style name="PopupMenuStyle" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.PopupMenu">
  <item name="android:popupBackground">...</item>
  <item name="android:popupElevation">...</item>
</style>
