title: ICS Spinner ("drop-down" rather than dialog) in older Android versions
body: <p>I'm trying to mimic the newer Ice Cream Sandwhich version of the spinner, where it looks more like a drop-down list rather than a pop-up dialog. <a href="http://developer.android.com/design/building-blocks/spinners.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">See this link</a> to get an idea of what I'm talking about. I read some posts stating to use ActionBarSherlock to get the desired effect. However, this is created for use in the action bar only, so, how do I take the ICS Spinner out of the action bar?</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10323471/dropdown-spinner-outside-of-actionbar-icecream-sandwich-style-w-actionbarsher">There is a pretty good answer here,</a> yet, I feel like this is a little bit overkill? Is there an easier way?</p>
