Is it possible to change the text color in a string to multiple colors in Java?

Question

What I mean is, is it possible to change the text \"This text is blue\" to the color blue in a single string? There must be a way...

Answer 1

Try this..

TextView update= (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.address);
String colorText= "Driver is nearby "
                + ""
                + "43, KR Rd, Tata Silk Farm, Jayanagar"
                + ""
                + " and he is "
                + ""
                + "11 km"
                + ""
                + " & "
                + ""
                + "20 mins"
                + ""
                + " away from your current location.";

        update.setText(Html.fromHtml(colorText));

and the result will be like this..
