I'm trying to change my applications activity menu bar title. I managed to change font as follows. Anyone help me to change the name of the title. It may be just a one line, but I can't figure it out.
int actionBarTitle = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("action_bar_title", "id", "android");
TextView actionBarTitleView = (TextView) getWindow().findViewById(actionBarTitle);
if(actionBarTitleView != null){
actionBarTitleView.setTypeface(typeFace);
}
Not sure you can do it your way or not but you can use the bellow solution:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.your_activity);
final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
// actionBar
actionBar.setDisplayOptions(ActionBar.DISPLAY_SHOW_CUSTOM);
// titleTextView
TextView titleTextView = new TextView(actionBar.getThemedContext());
titleTextView.setText("Title");
titleTextView.setTypeface( your_typeface);
titleTextView.setOtherProperties();
// Add titleTextView into ActionBar
actionBar.setCustomView(titleTextView);
}
By doing this solution, you have FULL control of your textview title.
