Please, provide the details below:

When applying the backgroundColor to the Android <ActionBar> you lose the drop-shadow which I believe comes from the elevation property on Android.

Did you verify this is a real problem by searching Stack Overflow and the other open issues in this repo?

Yes

Which platform(s) does your issue occur on?

Android

Please provide the following version numbers that your issue occurs with:

1.7 - think it's bee an issue prior also. Just never brought it up.

Please tell us how to recreate the issue in as much detail as possible.

Create a new NS app for android, run it. You'll notice the drop shadow from the elevation is visible, I think it defaults to 4dp. If you then set a backgrounColor on the ActionBar you will lose the drop shadow/elevation.

Is there code involved? If so, please share the minimal amount of code needed to recreate the problem.

Just backgroundColor on actionbar.
