A simpler way to style your TextViews
BabushkaText is a custom TextView which lets you customize the styling of parts of your text via
Spannables, but without the hassle of having to deal directly with Spannable themselves.
TextViews to your
view hierarchy.setSpan(Object what, int start, int end, int flags) calls by using more convenient
methods such as .style(Typeface.BOLD), .superscript() and others.Examples of different styles. Each one is a single TextView.
Generate the following style:
With the code below:
…Right now you can customize the style of your text by using the following methods, which internally
get converted to the corresponding Spannables
| Babushka Method | Internal Span |
|---|---|
| textSize | AbsoluteSizeSpan |
| textColor | ForegroundColorSpan |
| textSizeRelative | RelativeSizeSpan |
| backgroundColor | BackgroundColorSpan |
| style | StyleSpan |
| underline | UnderlineSpan |
| strike | StrikethroughSpan |
| superscript | SuperscriptSpan |
| subscript | SubscriptSpan |
Once you've created and displayed your BabushkaText, you can modify the text contents of each
Piece individually. For example, if we want to change the 1.2 mi from the above example into
1.9 km, we could do the following:
// grab the Piece at position 1
Piece piece = babushka.getPiece(1);
// modify it's text
piece.setText("1.9 km ");
// you must always call display after you alter a Piece's text
babushka.display();BabushkaText is a single Java file, so you can simply download it and reference it in your project.
