Custom font for Android listview

Question

I have a custom font for my android activity.

MainActivity.class

    private void initControls() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method         


        

Answer 1

Here is the custom adapter class and the constructor

class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>{

    Context context; 
    int layoutResourceId;    
    CharSequence data[] = null;
    Typeface tf; 

public CustomAdapter(Context context, int layoutResourceId, CharSequence[] data, String FONT ) { 
    super(context, layoutResourceId, data);
    this.layoutResourceId = layoutResourceId;
    this.context = context;
    this.data = data;
    tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), FONT);
}   

Put the font you want to use in your assets folder and fill your listview like this:

listAdapter = new CustomAdapter(this, R.layout.custom_list_text, R.array.abra_hotel, "name_of_font.ttf");

Answer 2

you can't apply font directly to listview and you need to create custom adapter for listview and change it font for more details click below stack post it's already discussed.
