Is there a way to change the theme of a TextInputLayout programmatically in Android.
If I have the following TextInputLayout for ex.:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/label"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:paddingTop="16dp"
android:theme="#style/TextInputLayoutTheme"
app:errorTextAppearance="#style/Error">
<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText
android:id="#+id/edit_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingBottom="8dp"
android:paddingTop="8dp"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Could I somehow change this line android:theme="#style/TextInputLayoutTheme" to another theme programmatically?
There is no way to change theme of any view or any layout at runtime. Because of themes and styles are applied during creation of view, recursively. (Themes also applies child views of layouts)
But, you can change that theme before creation of view using XML layout or programmatically.
Programmatically:
Method 1 - Create TextInputLayout programmatically with wrapping Context with android.view.ContextThemeWrapper and use.
TextInputLayout layout = new TextInputLayout(new ContextThemeWrapper(getContext(), R.style. TextInputLayoutTheme));
Method 2 - Extend TextInputLayout and use your own layout. Pass ContextThemeWrapper as context.
public class MyTextInputLayout extends TextInputLayout {
public MyTextInputLayout(Context context) {
super(new ContextThemeWrapper(context, R.style.AppTheme));
}
public MyTextInputLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(new ContextThemeWrapper(context, R.style.AppTheme), attrs);
}
public MyTextInputLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(new ContextThemeWrapper(context, R.style.AppTheme), attrs, defStyleAttr);
}
}
Now, you can use MyTextInputLayout in your XML layout
With XML Layout:
1) In attrs.xml file, create new attribute named textInputLayoutTheme
<attr name="textInputLayoutTheme" format="reference"/>
2) In your AppTheme in styles.xml file set your #style/TextInputLayoutTheme as textInputLayoutTheme.
<resources>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="PARENT_THEME">
<item name="textInputLayoutTheme">#style/TextInputLayoutTheme</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.Secondary">
<item name="textInputLayoutTheme">#style/TextInputLayoutTheme_Secondary</item>
</style>
</resources>
3) In your layout.xml file, set ?attr/textInputLayoutTheme as a TextInputLayout theme
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/label"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:paddingTop="16dp"
android:theme="#?attr/textInputLayoutTheme"
app:errorTextAppearance="#style/Error">
Now, when you change your application theme from AppTheme to AppTheme.Secondary TextInputLayoutTheme_Secondary will be used as a theme of your TextInputLayout instead of TextInputLayoutTheme.
Unfortunately the accepted answer is not working for me.
My solution was to wrap TextInputLayout in a custom layout.
view_input_layout_wrapper.xml
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:theme="#style/AppThemeMaterial"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/til"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/edit_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
</FrameLayout>
TextInputLayoutWrapper
class TextInputLayoutWrapper(context: Context) : FrameLayout(context) {
var inputLayout: TextInputLayout
private set
init {
inflate(context, R.layout.view_input_layout_wrapper, this)
inputLayout = findViewById(R.id.til)
}
}
Implementation in the view (fragment/activity):
private fun addNewField(fieldName: String) {
val textInputLayoutWrapper = TextInputLayoutWrapper(
requireContext()
).apply {
inputLayout.hint = fieldName
}
fieldsContainerViewGroup.addView(textInputLayoutWrapper)
}
NOTE: My app theme is not material theme, so I must add theme="#style/AppThemeMaterial" in the root ViewGroup of the TextInputLayout.
<style name="AppThemeMaterial" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light">
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">#color/colorAccent</item>
<item name="android:windowBackground">#android:color/black</item>
</style>

Google recently released the android.support.design.widget.NavigationView widget as part of the com.android.support:design:22.2.0 library, which greatly simplified (and standardises) the process of creating a NavigationDrawer.
However according to the design specs, the list item should be Roboto Medium, 14sp, 87% #000000. The NavigationView exposes no textSize or textStyle to customise this.
What are my options if I'm pedantic about maintaining the correct design specifications using the Google provided NavigationView (or customising it in any other way)?
Create new style at the file app/src/main/res/values/styles.xml
<style name="NavigationDrawerStyle">
<item name="android:textSize">20sp</item><!-- text size in menu-->
<!-- item size in menu-->
<item name="android:listPreferredItemHeightSmall">40dp</item>
<item name="listPreferredItemHeightSmall">40dp</item>
<!-- item padding left in menu-->
<item name="android:listPreferredItemPaddingLeft">8dp</item>
<item name="listPreferredItemPaddingLeft">8dp</item>
<!-- item padding right in menu-->
<item name="android:listPreferredItemPaddingRight">8dp</item>
<item name="listPreferredItemPaddingRight">8dp</item>
</style>
Add it to your main_layout.xml
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
...
app:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
....>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
All params of the navigation items (which you can change) are located here (path to file ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\design_navigation_item.xml )
design_navigation_item.xml
<android.support.design.internal.NavigationMenuItemView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/listPreferredItemHeightSmall"
android:paddingLeft="?attr/listPreferredItemPaddingLeft"
android:paddingRight="?attr/listPreferredItemPaddingRight"
android:drawablePadding="#dimen/navigation_icon_padding"
android:gravity="center_vertical|start"
android:maxLines="1"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif-thin"
android:textSize="22sp"
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceListItem" />
Also you can override *.xml file (copy file from ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\design_navigation_item.xml), just in your app/src/main/res/layout folder create a layout named the same design_navigation_item.xml.
All layouts which can be Overriden are located here ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\
design_layout_snackbar.xml
design_layout_snackbar_include.xml
design_layout_tab_icon.xml
design_layout_tab_text.xml
design_navigation_item.xml
design_navigation_item_header.xml
design_navigation_item_separator.xml
design_navigation_item_subheader.xml
design_navigation_menu.xml
[UPDATE] Each version of com.android.support:design-{version} lib has different items to override.
Check all what you need in
[UPDATE 04/14/2020]
If you are using com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
then open the class, and you will see:
public NavigationView(#NonNull Context context, #Nullable AttributeSet attrs) {
this(context, attrs, R.attr.navigationViewStyle);
}
So you can use attr navigationViewStyle to set your own style for the NavigationView via theme of your app:
NB: parent theme of AppTheme should be Theme.MaterialComponents
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar.Bridge">
...
<item name="navigationViewStyle">#style/AppNavigationViewStyle</item>
...
</style>
<style name="AppNavigationViewStyle" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.NavigationView">
<item name="itemTextAppearance">#style/AppNavigationViewItemTextAppearance</item>
</style>
<style name="AppNavigationViewItemTextAppearance" parent="#style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Subtitle2">
<item name="android:textSize">18sp</item>
</style>
Just open parent theme to see all <item name attrs for override
Since Android Support Library 22.2.1, Google has changed default textSize of items in NavigationView from 16sp to 14sp, which suits Material Design guideline well. However, in some cases(for example, when you want to support Chinese language), it seems larger textSize is better. Solution is simple:
add app:theme="#style/yourStyle.Drawer" to your NavigationView in your layout.xml
in styles.xml, add android:textSize="16sp" in style yourStyle.Drawer
You can customize everything from text color to size and font in your style.xml
<style name="NavDrawerTextStyle" parent="Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat">
<item name="android:textColor">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
</style>
and then in your NavigationView:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
...
android:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavDrawerTextStyle"
/>
you can use this attributes inside xml file
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
or for small text
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
or for large text
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
This worked for me:
activity_main.xml
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
app:headerLayout="#layout/navdrawer_header"
app:menu="#menu/navdrawer_menu" />
styles.xml
<style name="NavigationDrawerStyle">
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
</style>
Scouring through the source code I found this layout file
/platform/frameworks/support/.../design/res/layout/design_drawer_item.xml
with the following attribute
<android.support.design.internal.NavigationMenuItemView
...
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceListItem"
Which meant all we had to do was to override the textAppearanceListItem style in our project.
res/values/styles.xml
<style name="AppTheme" ... >
...
<item name="textAppearanceListItem">#style/list_item_appearance</item>
</style>
<style name="list_item_appearance">
<item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">sans-serif-medium</item>
</style>
I'm not totally sure what else this will affect but if anyone has a better answer I'd be happy to accept that instead!
Maybe it might help. Recently I had to do this programmatically.
I used this class:
public class CustomTypefaceSpan extends TypefaceSpan {
private final Typeface newType;
private final float newSp;
public CustomTypefaceSpan(String family, Typeface type, float sp) {
super(family);
newType = type;
newSp = sp;
}
#Override
public void updateDrawState(TextPaint ds) {
applyCustomTypeFace(ds, newType, newSp);
}
#Override
public void updateMeasureState(TextPaint paint) {
applyCustomTypeFace(paint, newType, newSp);
}
private static void applyCustomTypeFace(Paint paint, Typeface tf, float sp) {
int oldStyle;
Typeface old = paint.getTypeface();
if (old == null) {
oldStyle = 0;
} else {
oldStyle = old.getStyle();
}
int fake = oldStyle & ~tf.getStyle();
if ((fake & Typeface.BOLD) != 0) {
paint.setFakeBoldText(true);
}
if ((fake & Typeface.ITALIC) != 0) {
paint.setTextSkewX(-0.25f);
}
paint.setTextSize(sp);
paint.setTypeface(tf);
}
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
public static final Parcelable.Creator<CustomTypefaceSpan> CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator<CustomTypefaceSpan>() {
#Override
public CustomTypefaceSpan createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return null;
}
#Override
public CustomTypefaceSpan[] newArray(int size) {
return new CustomTypefaceSpan[size];
}
};
}
Then I used like this:
// This is for color
SpannableString s = new SpannableString(item.getTitle().toString());
s.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.RED), 0, s.length(), 0);
// This is for typeface and size
Typeface typeFace = Functions.getTypeface(this, "Avenir");
if (typeFace != null) {
int size = 19;
float scaledSizeInPixels = size * getResources().getDisplayMetrics().scaledDensity;
CustomTypefaceSpan spanTypeFace = new CustomTypefaceSpan(item.getTitle().toString(), typeFace, scaledSizeInPixels);
s.setSpan(spanTypeFace, 0, s.length(), 0);
}
item.setTitle(s);
Hope this helps.
Goto activity_main.xml and select nav_view in design and you can change menu item text size by updating itemTextAppearance and itemTextColor like as follows
For com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView you should use the app namespace with your custom style:
app:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavDrawerTextStyle"
List Adapter Layout of your Navigation bar:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:background="#drawable/pressed_state">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView_list_item"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/imageView_icons"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="17sp" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/list_adapter_image"
android:layout_width="10dp"
android:layout_height="10dp"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:visibility="visible"
android:layout_marginRight="50dp"
android:background="#drawable/circle_orange"/>
</RelativeLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#EC1294"></LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
This param in RelativeLayout set the background color --> android:background="#drawable/pressed_state"
Make this "pressed_state.xml" in drawable folder.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:drawable="#color/light_blue" android:state_pressed="true"/>
Excuse me for my english.
Open or create values\dimens.xml
Add this code:
<dimen name="design_bottom_navigation_text_size" tools:override="true">11sp</dimen>
<dimen name="design_bottom_navigation_active_text_size" tools:override="true">12sp</dimen>
It should work
I've noticed that the SwitchCompat's font does not seem to change with what I've set in the fontFamily field. I've also tried using styles with custom fontFamily (which works on TextViews) and even the switchTextAppearance field. It does apply on the preview (I know the preview is not really accurate) but not when I tried running it on my test device.
Here's my SwitchCompat:
<android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
style="#style/MyStyle.Body"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fontFamily="#font/my_font_family"
android:text="Enable"
app:switchTextAppearance="#style/MyStyle.Body"/>
and here's my style:
<style name="MyStyle.Body" parent="Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body1">
<item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">#font/my_font_family</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#color/color_primary_text</item>
</style>
As you can see, I only really want to change it's font
EDIT
I've changed my style to this
<style name="MyStyle.Switch" parent="Widget.AppCompat.CompoundButton.Switch">
<item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#color/color_primary_text</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">#font/my_font_family</item>
<item name="fontFamily">#font/my_font_family</item>
</style>
still doesn't work though
XML settings is not working, therefore I use following code:
someSwitch.setTypeface(ResourcesCompat.getFont(context, R.font.roboto));
Try
parent="Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body1"
replace into this
parent="TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.Switch"
Try below
public class CustomSwitchCompact extends SwitchCompat {
public CustomSwitchCompact(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
init();
}
public CustomSwitchCompact(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
init();
}
public CustomSwitchCompact(Context context) {
super(context);
init();
}
private void init() {
if (!isInEditMode()) {
Typeface myFonts = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(),
"fonts/Roboto_Bold.ttf");
setTypeface(myFonts);
}
}
}
XML file
<com.test.CustomSwitchCompact
android:id="#+id/switch_compat"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:checked="false"
android:padding="20dp"
android:text="SwitchCompat"
android:textOff="OFF"
android:textOn="ON"
app:showText="true" />
Another way to achieve SwitchCompact with custom font
<android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/adamSwitch"
android:textColor="#color/top_color"
android:textAppearance="#color/top_color"
android:gravity="center"
app:showText="true"
android:fontFamily="#font/my_font_family"
app:theme="#style/Custom.Widget.SwitchCompat"
app:switchPadding="5dp"
/>
in style.xml
<style name="Custom.Widget.SwitchCompat" parent="Widget.AppCompat.CompoundButton.Switch" >
<item name="android:textColorPrimary">#color/blue</item>
<item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">#font/my_font_family</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#color/color_primary_text</item>
</style>
The only thing that works for me is setSwitchTypeface, not setTypeface:
my_switch.setSwitchTypeface(ResourcesCompat.getFont(context, R.font.my_font))
I've used android:textAppearance instead of android:switchTextAppearance and custom font works now. Also my switch style have Widget.AppCompat.CompoundButton.Switch as parent
I have an Android application which uses Material design theme with backward compatibility through AppCompat.
There are multiple Textview's and EditText's in my application. I would like the same properties to be applied to all these TextView's and EditText's across the application. In order to achieve this, i have defined a custom style as shown below:
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="ParentTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">#color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
<style name="ArabicTheme" parent="ParentTheme">
<item name="android:editTextStyle">#style/arabicEditText</item>
<item name="android:textViewStyle">#style/arabicTextView</item>
</style>
<style name="arabicEditText" parent="#android:style/Widget.EditText">
<item name="android:gravity">right</item>
<item name="android:ellipsize">end</item>
</style>
<style name="arabicTextView" parent="#android:style/Widget.TextView">
<item name="android:gravity">right</item>
</style>
In my AndroidManifest.xml file under the <Application> tag, i have set android:theme="#style/ArabicTheme".
Below is the output of the activity:
As seen in the above output, the Style is being applied to TextView only. However, The same is not being applied to EditText.
Incase, if i explicitly specify these properties to the EditText in the corresponding Actitivy's xml as shown below:
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:hint="Name"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:gravity="right"
android:ems="10"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:id="#+id/editText" />
i.e I have explicitly added android:ellipsize="end" and android:gravity="right" to the <EditText>, and only then the output is as expected:
Like i said, i have multiple TextView's and EditText's and i cannot explicitly add these properties to all of them. So, is there a way i can achieve this using Styles or any other approach? Am i doing something wrong here?
Your approach is correct. Just remove android: from the editText's attribute name:
<item name="editTextStyle">#style/arabicEditText</item>
I cannot explain this though. I guess appCompat things don't reuse android attributes, but add another ones with similiar names. Same goes with colorPrimary, srcCompat and others.
I have been doing this
public class LightEditText extends android.widget.EditText{
public LightEditText(Context context) {
super(context);
setFont();
}
public LightEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
setFont();
}
public LightEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
setFont();
}
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
public LightEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr, int defStyleRes) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr, defStyleRes);
setFont();
}
/**
* This method is used to set the given font to the TextView.
*/
private void setFont() {
Typeface typeface = TypefaceCache.get(getContext().getAssets(), "fonts/Roboto-Light.ttf");
setTypeface(typeface);
}
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
super.onDraw(canvas);
}
}
Then inside your xml file
<com.packagename.LightEditText
android:id="#+id/edtTaskName"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"/>
Do the above method for setting common properties(fontType,style..etc) to editext
I'm using the Calligraphy lib for Android to change the fonts in my app.
The problem is with the Toolbar. I don't know how to change the font.
This is my Toolbar :
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
app:titleTextAppearance="#style/Toolbar.TitleText"
android:background="#drawable/background_repeat"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
This is the TextAppearance in my style.xml :
<style name="Toolbar.TitleText" parent="TextAppearance.Widget.AppCompat.Toolbar.Title">
<item name="fontPath">fonts/Raleway-ExtraBoldItalic.ttf</item>
<item name="android:textSize">50sp</item>
</style>
This is not working. I can change the size of the text (in this example, 50sp is working). But impossible to change the font.
The problem is that Toolbar creates TextViews for title and subtitle programmatically inside itself.
It means that it doesn't use wrapped LayoutInflater by Calligraphy.
Instead it uses system Typefaces depending on fontFamily and fontStyle from textAppearence attribute.
But Calligraphy listens for GlobalLayout changes and tries to load style from theme.
So what I've done:
Add activity theme and customize ActionBarStyle:
<style name="ActivityTheme" parent="AppTheme.Base">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">#style/ActionBarStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="ActionBarStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid">
<item name="android:titleTextStyle">#style/ToolbarTitleTextAppearance</item>
</style>
<style name="ToolbarTitleTextAppearance" parent="TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title">
<item name="android:textSize">20sp</item>
<item name="fontPath">fonts/Roboto-Medium.ttf</item>
</style>
If you don't want or cannot override toolbar theme, you can subclass Toolbar and use your custom toolbar instead of the system toolbar:
public class ToolbarPlus extends Toolbar {
public ToolbarPlus(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public ToolbarPlus(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public ToolbarPlus(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
}
#Override
public void setTitle(CharSequence title) {
if (title == null) {
title = "";
}
Typeface font = TypefaceUtils.load(getResources().getAssets(), "fonts/Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf");
super.setTitle(CalligraphyUtils.applyTypefaceSpan(title, font));
}
}
Replace "fonts/Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf" with your font.
You can also use this method for subtitle by overriding public void setSubtitle(CharSequence subtitle).
There is two way you can do this
1) By using style in style.xml file AnoDest told you
2) By using xml, in this way you will get more control over view, you need to create seprate xml file called appbar.xml and include it in your view
appbar.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/gradient_theme"
android:elevation="#dimen/smallPadding"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true">
<com.indussoft.lms.customUI.TextViewRobotoBold
android:id="#+id/tvTitle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Activity Name"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textSize="#dimen/okTextSize"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:gravity="center"
android:visibility="visible"
android:textColor="#color/white" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/accept"
fontPath="fonts/Roboto-Bold.ttf"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
And include it in your activity view such as
<include
layout="#layout/appbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
Nothing worked for me so this is the function that I wrote in my base activity to workaround the issue:
private void setToolBarFont() {
final Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
for (int i = 0; i < toolbar.getChildCount(); i++) {
final View child = toolbar.getChildAt(i);
if (child instanceof TextView) {
final TextView textView = (TextView) child;
CalligraphyUtils.applyFontToTextView(textView, TypefaceUtils.load(getAssets(), "fonts/my_font.ttf"));
}
}
}
p.s. this is an open issue on Calligraphy's GitHub page currently. Here's the link to the issue:
https://github.com/chrisjenx/Calligraphy/issues/295

Add it to your main_layout.xml
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
...
app:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
....>
</android.support.design.widget.NavigationView>
All params of the navigation items (which you can change) are located here (path to file ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\design_navigation_item.xml )
design_navigation_item.xml
<android.support.design.internal.NavigationMenuItemView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/listPreferredItemHeightSmall"
android:paddingLeft="?attr/listPreferredItemPaddingLeft"
android:paddingRight="?attr/listPreferredItemPaddingRight"
android:drawablePadding="#dimen/navigation_icon_padding"
android:gravity="center_vertical|start"
android:maxLines="1"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif-thin"
android:textSize="22sp"
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceListItem" />
Also you can override *.xml file (copy file from ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\design_navigation_item.xml), just in your app/src/main/res/layout folder create a layout named the same design_navigation_item.xml.
All layouts which can be Overriden are located here ...\sdk\extras\android\support\design\res\layout\
design_layout_snackbar.xml
design_layout_snackbar_include.xml
design_layout_tab_icon.xml
design_layout_tab_text.xml
design_navigation_item.xml
design_navigation_item_header.xml
design_navigation_item_separator.xml
design_navigation_item_subheader.xml
design_navigation_menu.xml
[UPDATE] Each version of com.android.support:design-{version} lib has different items to override.
Check all what you need in
[UPDATE 04/14/2020]
If you are using com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
then open the class, and you will see:
public NavigationView(#NonNull Context context, #Nullable AttributeSet attrs) {
this(context, attrs, R.attr.navigationViewStyle);
}
So you can use attr navigationViewStyle to set your own style for the NavigationView via theme of your app:
NB: parent theme of AppTheme should be Theme.MaterialComponents
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar.Bridge">
...
<item name="navigationViewStyle">#style/AppNavigationViewStyle</item>
...
</style>
<style name="AppNavigationViewStyle" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.NavigationView">
<item name="itemTextAppearance">#style/AppNavigationViewItemTextAppearance</item>
</style>
<style name="AppNavigationViewItemTextAppearance" parent="#style/TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Subtitle2">
<item name="android:textSize">18sp</item>
</style>
Just open parent theme to see all <item name attrs for override
Since Android Support Library 22.2.1, Google has changed default textSize of items in NavigationView from 16sp to 14sp, which suits Material Design guideline well. However, in some cases(for example, when you want to support Chinese language), it seems larger textSize is better. Solution is simple:
add app:theme="#style/yourStyle.Drawer" to your NavigationView in your layout.xml
in styles.xml, add android:textSize="16sp" in style yourStyle.Drawer
You can customize everything from text color to size and font in your style.xml
<style name="NavDrawerTextStyle" parent="Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat">
<item name="android:textColor">#color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
</style>
and then in your NavigationView:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
...
android:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavDrawerTextStyle"
/>
you can use this attributes inside xml file
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
or for small text
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
or for large text
app:itemTextAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
This worked for me:
activity_main.xml
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:theme="#style/NavigationDrawerStyle"
app:headerLayout="#layout/navdrawer_header"
app:menu="#menu/navdrawer_menu" />
styles.xml
<style name="NavigationDrawerStyle">
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
</style>
Scouring through the source code I found this layout file
/platform/frameworks/support/.../design/res/layout/design_drawer_item.xml
with the following attribute
<android.support.design.internal.NavigationMenuItemView
...
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceListItem"
Which meant all we had to do was to override the textAppearanceListItem style in our project.
res/values/styles.xml
<style name="AppTheme" ... >
...
<item name="textAppearanceListItem">#style/list_item_appearance</item>
</style>
<style name="list_item_appearance">
<item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">sans-serif-medium</item>
</style>
I'm not totally sure what else this will affect but if anyone has a better answer I'd be happy to accept that instead!
Maybe it might help. Recently I had to do this programmatically.
I used this class:
public class CustomTypefaceSpan extends TypefaceSpan {
private final Typeface newType;
private final float newSp;
public CustomTypefaceSpan(String family, Typeface type, float sp) {
super(family);
newType = type;
newSp = sp;
}
#Override
public void updateDrawState(TextPaint ds) {
applyCustomTypeFace(ds, newType, newSp);
}
#Override
public void updateMeasureState(TextPaint paint) {
applyCustomTypeFace(paint, newType, newSp);
}
private static void applyCustomTypeFace(Paint paint, Typeface tf, float sp) {
int oldStyle;
Typeface old = paint.getTypeface();
if (old == null) {
oldStyle = 0;
} else {
oldStyle = old.getStyle();
}
int fake = oldStyle & ~tf.getStyle();
if ((fake & Typeface.BOLD) != 0) {
paint.setFakeBoldText(true);
}
if ((fake & Typeface.ITALIC) != 0) {
paint.setTextSkewX(-0.25f);
}
paint.setTextSize(sp);
paint.setTypeface(tf);
}
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
public static final Parcelable.Creator<CustomTypefaceSpan> CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator<CustomTypefaceSpan>() {
#Override
public CustomTypefaceSpan createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return null;
}
#Override
public CustomTypefaceSpan[] newArray(int size) {
return new CustomTypefaceSpan[size];
}
};
}
Then I used like this:
// This is for color
SpannableString s = new SpannableString(item.getTitle().toString());
s.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.RED), 0, s.length(), 0);
// This is for typeface and size
Typeface typeFace = Functions.getTypeface(this, "Avenir");
if (typeFace != null) {
int size = 19;
float scaledSizeInPixels = size * getResources().getDisplayMetrics().scaledDensity;
CustomTypefaceSpan spanTypeFace = new CustomTypefaceSpan(item.getTitle().toString(), typeFace, scaledSizeInPixels);
s.setSpan(spanTypeFace, 0, s.length(), 0);
}
item.setTitle(s);
Hope this helps.
Goto activity_main.xml and select nav_view in design and you can change menu item text size by updating itemTextAppearance and itemTextColor like as follows
For com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView you should use the app namespace with your custom style:
app:itemTextAppearance="#style/NavDrawerTextStyle"
List Adapter Layout of your Navigation bar:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:background="#drawable/pressed_state">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView_list_item"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/imageView_icons"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="17sp" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/list_adapter_image"
android:layout_width="10dp"
android:layout_height="10dp"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:visibility="visible"
android:layout_marginRight="50dp"
android:background="#drawable/circle_orange"/>
</RelativeLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#EC1294"></LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
This param in RelativeLayout set the background color --> android:background="#drawable/pressed_state"
Make this "pressed_state.xml" in drawable folder.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:drawable="#color/light_blue" android:state_pressed="true"/>
Excuse me for my english.
Open or create values\dimens.xml
Add this code:
<dimen name="design_bottom_navigation_text_size" tools:override="true">11sp</dimen>
<dimen name="design_bottom_navigation_active_text_size" tools:override="true">12sp</dimen>
It should work
