Set style for TextView programmatically

Question

I\'m trying to use the TextView constructor with style like this:

TextView myText = new TextView(MyActivity.this, null, R.style.my_style);
         


        

Answer 1

I have only tested with EditText but you can use the method

public void setBackgroundResource (int resid)

to apply a style defined in an XML file.

Sine this method belongs to View I believe it will work with any UI element.

regards.
