How to change a ListView item's font size?










0














I am able to change my ListItem's text size in xml:



 android:textSize="22sp"


But instead of hard coding it in xml, how do I do it through java?



here is my adapter:



 BookAdapter adapter = new BookAdapter(getActivity(), R.layout.list_item, Library.getInstance().getBible(bible).getBook(pos).getChapters());
setListAdapter(adapter);
getListView().setOnItemClickListener(this);

Assign an ID to the TextView in XML:



android:id="@+id/text"


In Java:



for (int i = 0; i < adapter.getCount(); i++) 
View item = (View) adapter.getItem(i);
TextView text = item.findViewById(R.id.text);
text.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 22f); //or whatever size you want

    You can use custom layout xml file like this:



    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <TextView
    android:id="@+id/listView"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:textColor="@color/black"
    android:textSize="20dp" />




    java code



    listView.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, 
    android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
    MobileMuni.getBookmarkStore().getRecentLocations())
    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
    TextView textView = (TextView) super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
    textView.setTextSize(12);

    return textView;

    );
