I want to set title style for my preference fragment screen V14.
This is what I want:
I have followed
Custom PreferenceCategory Headings
I did manage to get the same screen but with PreferenceFragment!!
How can I do it for PreferenceFragmentCompat V14??
Here is my Code
Style.xml
<style name="AppTheme" 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>
<item name="android:listSeparatorTextViewStyle">@style/PreferenceStyle</item>
<item name="preferenceTheme">@style/PreferenceThemeOverlay.v14.Material</item>
</style>
<style name="PreferenceStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.TextView">
<item name="android:textColor">@color/colorDialogPop</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="android:textSize">@dimen/text_medium</item>
<item name="android:padding">@dimen/padding_large</item>
<item name="android:layout_marginLeft">@dimen/margin_medium</item>
<item name="android:background">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
preference.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<PreferenceCategory android:title="@string/heading_general"
android:layout="@layout/settings_text">
<SwitchPreference
android:padding="@dimen/padding_medium"
android:title="@string/enable_push" />
<SwitchPreference
android:padding="@dimen/padding_medium"
android:title="@string/send_email" />
</PreferenceCategory>
<PreferenceCategory android:title="@string/heading_account"
android:layout="@layout/settings_text">
<EditTextPreference
android:padding="@dimen/padding_medium"
android:title="@string/email" />
<EditTextPreference
android:padding="@dimen/padding_medium"
android:title="@string/name" />
</PreferenceCategory>
</PreferenceScreen>
setting_text.xml for layout of title text
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@android:id/title"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
style="@style/PreferenceStyle"
>
</TextView>
SOLVED
I added the Linear Layout around the Text View and the background gets visible in my choice of color.
Here is the code.
settings_text.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="@android:id/title"
style="@style/CustomPreferenceCategoryText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
style.xml
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
