set custom font for text in PreferenceScreen

My PreferenceActivity looks like:

import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;
import android.preference.         


        

Answer 1

The easiest way to change typeface for all TextViews in PreferenceScreen is:

public class WallpaperSettings extends PreferenceActivity {

  private View tryInflate(String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    View v = null;
    try {
        v = li.createView(name, null, attrs); 
    } catch (Exception e) {
        try {
            v = li.createView("android.widget." + name, null, attrs);
        } catch (Exception e1) {
        }
    }
    return v;
  }

  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    //CHANGE TYPEFACE FOR ALL TEXTVIEWS
    final Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/cabal.ttf");     
    getLayoutInflater().setFactory(new Factory() {
        @Override
        public View onCreateView(String name, Context context,
                AttributeSet attrs) {
            View v = tryInflate(name, context, attrs);
            if (v instanceof TextView) {                    
                ((TextView) v).setTypeface(font);
            }
            return v;
        }
    });

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefs);
  }
}

That's it!
