Change button color in AlertDialog

Question

How can I change the color of the button(s) in an AlertDialog in Android?

Answer 1

I think there are developer who wish to extend the AlertDialog class and define the buttons colors withing class definition. For such purpose you can use this code:

class MyDialog extends AlertDialog {
    public MyDialog(final Context context) {
        super(context); 
        setOnShowListener(new OnShowListener() {
            @Override
            public void onShow(DialogInterface dialog) {
                Button negativeButton = getButton(DialogInterface.BUTTON_NEGATIVE);  
                Button positiveButton = getButton(DialogInterface.BUTTON_POSITIVE);

                negativeButton.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);
                positiveButton.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
            }
        });
    }
}
