I have a problem changing the Menu Item Title Color
in the Navigation Drawer
I set the itemTextColor
but it only changes the Color
of the Items not the Title
of the menu.
Here is my Activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<include
layout="@layout/app_bar_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer"
app:itemTextColor="#ffffff"
android:background="#283135"
/>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
activity_main_drawer.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_home"
android:icon="@mipmap/hospital"
android:title="Home"
/>
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_reminder"
android:icon="@mipmap/alarm"
android:title="Reminders" />
</group>
<item android:title="Tools">
<menu>
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_settings"
android:icon="@mipmap/settings"
android:title="Settings" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_help"
android:icon="@mipmap/information"
android:title="Help" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_about"
android:icon="@mipmap/team"
android:title="About Us" />
</menu>
</item>
</menu>
To give Menu
item title
color
and textSize
Create this way..
add this to your styles.xml
file.
<style name="TextAppearance44">
<item name="android:textColor">#FF0000</item>
<item name="android:textSize">20sp</item>
</style>
now in activity_main_drawer.xml
file give id
attribute
to title
..
<item android:title="Tools"
android:id="@+id/tools">
<menu>
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_settings"
android:icon="@mipmap/settings"
android:title="Settings" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_help"
android:icon="@mipmap/information"
android:title="Help" />
<item
android:id="@+id/nav_about"
android:icon="@mipmap/team"
android:title="About Us" />
</menu>
</item>
now In MainActivity.java
file use this way..
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
Menu menu = navigationView.getMenu();
MenuItem tools= menu.findItem(R.id.tools);
SpannableString s = new SpannableString(tools.getTitle());
s.setSpan(new TextAppearanceSpan(this, R.style.TextAppearance44), 0, s.length(), 0);
tools.setTitle(s);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
It will change your tools
color
to Red
and TextSize
to 20sp
.. Implement it..
In my case Output :
You can also define new style in styles.xml:
<style name="NavigationView">
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/white</item>
</style>
and then applying this style in NavigationView's theme:
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:theme="@style/NavigationView" />
Just add app:itemTextColor="@color/accent
property in your Navigation view tag like below.
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:backgroundTint="@color/primary"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer"
app:itemTextColor="@color/accent"/>
For anyone who may stumble upon this question and find no working answer like me, add <item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/white</item>
inside your AppTheme
and AppTheme.NoActionBar
styles.xml file like this:
<resources>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/white</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/white</item>
</style>
...
</resources>
This should produce something like this:
Note: I've made the item text "Share" or "Send" white by adding app:itemTextColor="@color/white"
inside the NavigationView
. The Full NavigationView code:
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
android:id="@+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:itemTextColor="@color/white"
android:background="#283135"
app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer"/>
With the NavigationView
included in the Material Components Library you can use the app:itemTextColor
to define a color or a selector for each items and the app:itemTextAppearance
if you want to customize the TextAppearance used.
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
app:itemTextColor="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
app:itemTextAppearance="@style/...."
...>
For the color you can use a selector like:
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:color="?attr/colorPrimary" android:state_checked="true"/>
<item android:alpha="0.38" android:color="?attr/colorOnSurface" android:state_enabled="false"/>
<item android:color="?attr/colorOnSurface"/>
</selector>
To change the color of a title group you can override the android:textColorSecondary
color with:
<com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView
android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.titleColor"
..>
with:
<style name="ThemeOverlay.titleColor" parent="">
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/....</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.NavigationView">
<item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="android:textSize">20sp</item>
</style>
Set textSize if you want to change the title size too
