How to Set a Custom Font in the ActionBar Title?

Question

How (if possible) could I set a custom font in a ActionBar title text(only - not the tab text) with a font in my assets folder? I don\'t want to use the android:logo option.

Answer 1

From Android Support Library v26 + Android Studio 3.0 onwards, this process has become easy as a flick!!

Follow these steps to change the font of Toolbar Title:

1. Read Downloadable Fonts & select any font from the list (my recommendation) or load a custom font to res > font as per Fonts in XML

2. In res > values > styles, paste the following (use your imagination here!)

3. Insert a new line in your Toolbar properties app:titleTextAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.TabsFont" as shown below

4. Enjoy Custom Actionbar Title font styling!!
