Change the text color of a single ClickableSpan when pressed without affecting other ClickableSpans in the same TextView

Question

I have a TextView with multiple ClickableSpans in it. When a ClickableSpan is pressed, I want it to change the color of its text.

I have tried setting a color state

Answer 1

Much simpler solution, IMO:

final int colorForThisClickableSpan = Color.RED; //Set your own conditional logic here.

final ClickableSpan link = new ClickableSpan() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(final View view) {
        //Do something here!
    }

    @Override
    public void updateDrawState(TextPaint ds) {
        super.updateDrawState(ds);
        ds.setColor(colorForThisClickableSpan);
    }
};
