Multiple font to single textview depending on langugage

Question

So at the moment I have textviews with English text and Arabic text and I am doing is applying font depending what language is in the textview , but there are some times when i have both English and Arabic in single text , so how is it possible for me to apply arabic and english font on the same Textview? Is it possible that i merge two fonts in one font type , and apply it every where, will that work?

Answer 1

Found this:

String firstString = "AAAAAA: ";
String secondString = "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB";

SpannableStringBuilder sb = new SpannableStringBuilder(firstString + secondString);

sb.setSpan(new StyleSpan(android.graphics.Typeface.BOLD), 0, firstString.length(),
        Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);

sb.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0)), firstString.length() + 1,
        firstString.length() + secondString.length(),
        Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);

textView.setText(sb);

might work
