Steve,

Yes, the application-side themes are supported.  I have tested them on 2.x in an mfa app.  I guess that they work on 3.x and 4.x, but haven't tried it.  I am out of pocket on this right now.  Ping me next week and I'll get you a proect I have that shows this in a short demo.

Subject: [mono-android] Application-wide Themes








This is probably a 
stupid question; but, I assume many on this list (like myself) are 
primarily Windows and perhaps Windows Mobile developers without much Android 
background.
 
We've been running 
our M4A apps on various phone devices, and even an older Galaxy 
Tab without any problems - the standard buttons appear white (or very 
light) with black text. One of our clients sent us a new Galaxy Tab 10.1 
(Android version 3.2) and the standard button background is very dark 
with black text that's difficult to read.
 
Is there any 
application-wide theme mechanism we can use to change this default 
behavior. I tried adding  "android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent" to the manifest within the <application> tag; but, could not 
build the package without errors.

Thanks
