android-theme

What I'm trying should be quite easy with themes, but I can't find out how to: I want all text to be white by default in my app. I created a custom theme in theme.xml: <style name="Theme" parent="@android:Theme"> </style> <style name="TextAppearance.Theme" parent="@android:TextAppearance.Theme"> <item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item> </style> and set it for the whole application: <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/Theme"> But labels are still black. What's missing? PS: How can I additionally define styles for different

I'm trying to modify the default background theme color, which should be easy but surprisingly I can't get it working. Please note that I want the change to be across the entire app, not just for a single activity. Here is my code: styles.xml <resources> <color name="white_opaque">#FFFFFFFF</color> <color name="pitch_black">#FF000000</color> <style name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light"> <item name="android:background">@color/white_opaque</item> <item name="android:windowBackground">@color/white_opaque</item> <item name="android:colorBackground">@color/white_opaque</item> </style> <

I'm pretty sure that this question already has been answered somewhere. It just seems too common. But I can't find the answer. I can't also figure out the solution. Here's the problem: I want one of my TableRow's to have different background color. It's simple, I just need to add android:background="#123456" In TableRow's XML Declaration. But, I also want my application to have two themes. In the other theme, the TableRow should have different background color. I just can't find a way to define a color value inside a theme and use it. I would like to type something like this: <style name=

I would like to add the support actionbar to one of my activities, I previously had been using the theme.translucent with this activity but in order to make the support actionbar work I needed to inherit the Theme.AppCompat, I need to maintain a translucent theme in this activity but unfortunately there isnt a Theme.AppCompat.translucent that i can see by default, is there any way that this can be done? Cameron Ketcham You can create a new set of styles to use which have the same properties as Theme.Translucent from themes.xml . Add the following to your styles.xml file: <style name="Theme
