How to Change Color and Font on Listview

How to change color and font on ListView

You need to create a CustomListAdapter.

public class CustomListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter <String> {

    private Context mContext;
    private int id;
    private List <String>items ;

    public CustomListAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId , List<String> list ) 
    {
        super(context, textViewResourceId, list);           
        mContext = context;
        id = textViewResourceId;
        items = list ;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View v, ViewGroup parent)
    {
        View mView = v ;
        if(mView == null){
            LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater)mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            mView = vi.inflate(id, null);
        }

        TextView text = (TextView) mView.findViewById(R.id.textView);

        if(items.get(position) != null )
        {
            text.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
            text.setText(items.get(position));
            text.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED); 
            int color = Color.argb( 200, 255, 64, 64 );
                text.setBackgroundColor( color );

        }

        return mView;
    }

}

The list item looks like this (custom_list.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView  
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:id="@+id/textView"
    android:textSize="20px" android:paddingTop="10dip" android:paddingBottom="10dip"/>
</LinearLayout>

Use the TextView api's to decorate your text to your liking

and you will be using it like this

listAdapter = new CustomListAdapter(YourActivity.this , R.layout.custom_list , mList);
mListView.setAdapter(listAdapter);

How to change font color or size of Listview item

You can set an adapter and change the background color and item size like below:

lv = findViewById(R.id.listView);
lv.setAdaptater(adapter);
final ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String> (this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list) {
        @Override
        public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
            // Get the current item from ListView
            View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);

            // Set the text color of TextView (ListView Item)
            TextView tv = view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
            // Generate ListView Item using TextView
            tv.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#efefef"));
            tv.setTextSize(20);
            tv.setAllCaps(true);

                // Set a background color for ListView
                view.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#00afd8"));

            return view;
        }
    };
    lv.setAdapter(adapter);

You can even alternate background colors.

Android change TextView Font color in a ListView for a condition

Show Us db_msg this layout in that layout there is one TextView just get the name of that and replace with "tvIDFrom_db_msg_layout" this

adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,R.layout.db_msg,messaggi){
      @Override
      public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) 
   {
          View view1 = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
         if (position % 2 == 0) {  //Place the condition where you want to change the item color.
             testo = messaggi.get(position);
              TextView tvText = (TextView) view1.findViewById(R.id.tvIDFrom_db_msg_layout);
            if(testo.substring(0,5).equals("27-09")){

                 tvText.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#yourHexCode"));
            } else {
                //Setting to default color.
                tvText.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
            }
        return view1;
      }
    };

How to change the text color of a ListView item?

You will need to create a custom layout for your ListView items where you set your desired textcolor.

In this way, you do not even need a custom-adapter.

e.g. custom_textview.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/tv"
    android:textColor="@color/white"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>

Then, you can use your layout with the ArrayAdapter:

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.this, R.layout.custom_textview, aa);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);

You need to somehow gain access to the TextView object that holds your text.

You have a few options:

• Use a custom item layout

• Go quick and dirty way:

          android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, Hotels) {
      @Override
      public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
          View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
          TextView tv = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
          tv.setTextColor(Color.RED);
  
          return view;
      }
  };

You can override the getView method of Array adapter and change the color:

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = 
                    new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(), 
                    android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, 
                    myList) {

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
        TextView text = (TextView) view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);

        if (flag == True) {

    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {

        return favarets.size();
    }

    @Override
    public Object getItem(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int position) {

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View vi = convertView;
        if (convertView == null)
            vi = lif.inflate(R.layout.inflate, null);
        sideArrow = (ImageView) vi.findViewById(R.id.imageViewsidemark);


        tv = (TextView) vi.findViewById(R.id.textFav);
        tv.setText(favarets.get(position));

        final Typeface tvFont = Typeface.createFromAsset(assetManager, "OPTIMA.TTF");
        tv.setTypeface(tvFont);
        tv.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);

        return vi;
    }

}
