Android - set TextView TextStyle programmatically?

Question

Is there a way to set the textStyle attribute of a TextView programmatically? There doesn\'t appear to be a setTextStyle() method.

Answer 1

Since setTextAppearance(resId) is only available for API 23 and above, use:

TextViewCompat.setTextAppearance(textViewGoesHere, resId)

This method is internally implemented as follows:

public static void setTextAppearance(@NonNull TextView textView, @StyleRes int resId) {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
        textView.setTextAppearance(resId);
    } else {
        textView.setTextAppearance(textView.getContext(), resId);
    }
}
