V7 Menu Toolbar Options Menu Item on the Right - How to Add Margin

Question

I use android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar in my activity.

I added it to my layout for the action as follows:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:orientation="vertical"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/add_contact_toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
        android:elevation="6dp"
        android:title="@string/add_contact_toolbar_title"
        android:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"/>


</RelativeLayout>

I am inflating the options menu in onCreateOptionsMenu activity, and I am inflating my menu.xml:

<menu
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item
        android:id="@+id/add_contact_optionmenu_save"
        android:title="@string/add_contact_optionmenu_save"
        app:showAsAction="always"/>
</menu>

But, unfortunately, the element looks too far to the right and too small:

How can I make it appear, as in all other applications? More, and with more right border?

Hurrah!

To move MenuItema bit to the left of the right edge, you need to set the attribute paddingRightto android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar.

android:paddingRight="20dp"

, <item> App Theme.

<item name="actionMenuTextAppearance">@style/ActionBar.MenuTextStyle</item>
<item name="android:actionMenuTextAppearance">@style/ActionBar.MenuTextStyle</item>

<style name="ActionBar.MenuTextStyle"
       parent="android:style/TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title">
    <item name="android:textSize">48dp</item>
</style>
