Android custom font in titlebar in ListActivity

Question

I am solving this issue. I need to set up custom font in titlebar, but my activity is using dynamically generated layout (thus setContentView(R.layout.somtehing) is not used).

I have tried, that to set up custom font in titlebar you can do that by these code:

    type = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/verdanab.ttf");
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
    setContentView(R.layout.something);
    getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.gal_title);

    title = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.title);
    title.setText(R.string.Text);
    title.setTypeface(type);

Problem is, this code doesn't work, app doesn't see TextView title, because there isn't setContentView(). Any advices?

Thx

Initialize this line type = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/verdanab.ttf"); after this line

 getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.gal_title);

Use this code,

 requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);
    setContentView(R.layout.something);
    getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.gal_title);

    Typeface  type = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/verdanab.ttf");
    title = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.title);
    title.setText(R.string.Text);
    title.setTypeface(type);
