Android - Using Custom Font

Question

I applied a custom font to a TextView, but it doesn\'t seems to change the typeface.

Here is my code:

    Typeface myTypeface = Typeface

For Custom Fonts in android create a folder within assets folder name it "fonts" place your desired fonts.ttf or .otf file in it.

If you extends UIBaseFragment:

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getActivity().getAssets(), "fonts/Arial.ttf");
        tv.setTypeface(font);

else if extends Activity:

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(), "fonts/Arial.ttf");
        tv.setTypeface(font);
