在 PreferenceScreen 中为文本设置自定义字体

Question

My PreferenceActivity looks like:

import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;
import android.preference.PreferenceFragment;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class Settings extends PreferenceActivity {

    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

            //setContentView(R.layout.about);

            Typeface timesFont = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/times.ttf");

            TextView about_txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.about_txt);        
            about_txt.setTypeface(timesFont);
            about_txt.setText(R.string.about_txt);


            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT<Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB)
            {
                addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences);
            } else {
                // Display the fragment as the main content.
                getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(android.R.id.content,
                        new PrefsFragment()).commit();
            }
    }

    public static class PrefsFragment extends PreferenceFragment 
    {
            @Override
            public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
                super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

                // Load the preferences from an XML resource
                addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences);
            }
        }
}

And preference.xml

<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

        <ListPreference
            android:dialogTitle="@string/size_dialog"
            android:entries="@array/size_list"
            android:entryValues="@array/entry_size"
            android:key="size_list"
            android:summary="@string/size_summary"
            android:title="@string/pref4title"
            />

    </PreferenceCategory>

    <PreferenceCategory
        android:title="@string/pref_about"
        android:layout="@layout/about"
        >

    </PreferenceCategory>

</PreferenceScreen>

@layout/about (about.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="match_parent"> 

          <TextView
            android:id="@+id/about_txt"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="some text here"   
            />

</LinearLayout>

I have specific language, so for text in about.xml I should use specific font. Regularly for TextView I use:

 Typeface timesFont = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/times.ttf");

 TextView about_txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.about_txt);        
 about_txt.setTypeface(timesFont);
 about_txt.setText(R.string.about_txt);

but what I should use to access to text in about.xml which add to prefernce screen ?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Maybe more easy to write your own Preference and add it in xml
just set the custom font via Spannable to the settings fields :
(looks long but fast done :))

complete solution:

private void convertPreferenceToUseCustomFont(Preference somePreference) {
    CustomTypefaceSpan customTypefaceSpan = new CustomTypefaceSpan("", net.mikekober.myMory.utils.Utils.getUsedTypeFace(getActivity()));

    SpannableStringBuilder ss;
    if (somePreference.getTitle() != null) {
        ss = new SpannableStringBuilder(somePreference.getTitle().toString());
        ss.setSpan(customTypefaceSpan, 0, ss.length(),Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
        somePreference.setTitle(ss);
    }

    if (somePreference.getSummary() != null) {
        ss = new SpannableStringBuilder(somePreference.getSummary().toString());
        ss.setSpan(customTypefaceSpan, 0, ss.length(),Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
        somePreference.setSummary(ss);
    }
}

call it for every preference and you're done :)

have fun && good luck

btw: on changing text, call it again!!
btw2: checked, seen, applied, improved ;) from: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10741161/371749

btw3, nearly forgot:

static private class CustomTypefaceSpan extends TypefaceSpan {

    private final Typeface newType;

    public CustomTypefaceSpan(String family, Typeface type) {
        super(family);
        newType = type;
    }

    @Override
    public void updateDrawState(TextPaint ds) {
        applyCustomTypeFace(ds, newType);
    }

    @Override
    public void updateMeasureState(TextPaint paint) {
        applyCustomTypeFace(paint, newType);
    }

    private static void applyCustomTypeFace(Paint paint, Typeface tf) {
        int oldStyle;
        Typeface old = paint.getTypeface();
        if (old == null) {
            oldStyle = 0;
        } else {
            oldStyle = old.getStyle();
        }

        int fake = oldStyle & ~tf.getStyle();
        if ((fake & Typeface.BOLD) != 0) {
            paint.setFakeBoldText(true);
        }

        if ((fake & Typeface.ITALIC) != 0) {
            paint.setTextSkewX(-0.25f);
        }

        paint.setTypeface(tf);
    }
}

Answer 2

The easiest way to change typeface for all TextViews in PreferenceScreen is:

public class WallpaperSettings extends PreferenceActivity {

  private View tryInflate(String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    View v = null;
    try {
        v = li.createView(name, null, attrs); 
    } catch (Exception e) {
        try {
            v = li.createView("android.widget." + name, null, attrs);
        } catch (Exception e1) {
        }
    }
    return v;
  }

  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    //CHANGE TYPEFACE FOR ALL TEXTVIEWS
    final Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/cabal.ttf");     
    getLayoutInflater().setFactory(new Factory() {
        @Override
        public View onCreateView(String name, Context context,
                AttributeSet attrs) {
            View v = tryInflate(name, context, attrs);
            if (v instanceof TextView) {                    
                ((TextView) v).setTypeface(font);
            }
            return v;
        }
    });

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefs);
  }
}

That's it!

Answer 4

With the addition of font support in android O, we can now set a font-family to app theme and that would automatically reflect in the PreferenceFragment as well. (Note: I am using PreferenceFragmentCompat ). First add a font-family to the resources like this:

<font-family xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<font
    android:fontStyle="normal"
    android:fontWeight="400"
    android:font="@font/nunito"

    app:fontStyle="normal"
    app:fontWeight="400"
    app:font="@font/nunito"/>

<font
    android:fontStyle="italic"
    android:fontWeight="400"
    android:font="@font/nunito_italic"

    app:fontStyle="italic"
    app:fontWeight="400"
    app:font="@font/nunito_italic" />

NOTE: You would need both app and android namespace declarations as of now Link

Then add a style for the text view mentioning this font-family for the TextView :

<style name="NunitoTextViewStyle" parent="android:Widget.TextView">
    <item name="android:fontFamily">@font/nunito_regular_font_family</item>
</style>

And then finally, just refer to the above style in your AppTheme like this:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    ........
    <item name="android:textViewStyle">@style/NunitoTextViewStyle</item>
</style>

Done. This will show the customised font in your PreferenceFragmentCompat as well.
