android popup menu text color (AppCompat)

Question

I need to change text color of a popuo menu but I don\'t find any way for do this, I can change background of popmenu but not the text, I edit the style.xml in this way:

Answer 1

In styles.xml:

<style name="PopupMenu" parent="Widget.AppCompat.PopupMenu.Overflow">
    <item name="android:popupBackground">@color/white</item>
</style>

In java:

Context wrapper = new ContextThemeWrapper(getContext(), R.style.PopupMenu); final PopupMenu popupMenu = new PopupMenu(wrapper, view);

Answer 2

//In Main Style
<item name="popupMenuStyle">@style/popupMenuStyle</item>
    <item name="android:textAppearanceSmallPopupMenu">@style/myPopupMenuTextAppearanceSmall</item>
    <item name="android:textAppearanceLargePopupMenu">@style/myPopupMenuTextAppearanceLarge</item>


  //In Define part

   <style name="popupMenuStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.PopupMenu">
    <item name="android:popupBackground">@drawable/popup_bg</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">#ffffff</item>
</style>
<style name="myPopupMenuTextAppearanceSmall" parent="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.PopupMenu.Small">
    <item name="android:textColor">#ffffff</item>
</style>

<style name="myPopupMenuTextAppearanceLarge" parent="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.PopupMenu.Large">
    <item name="android:textColor">#ffffff</item>
</style>

  //you may use this background 
 //popup_bg.xml
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient
    android:angle="135"
    android:centerColor="#c8232323"
    android:endColor="#c80d0d0d"
    android:startColor="#c8434242"
    android:type="linear" />
</shape>

Answer 3

<item name="textAppearanceLargePopupMenu">@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Light.Widget.PopupMenu.Large</item>
<item name="textAppearanceSmallPopupMenu">@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Light.Widget.PopupMenu.Small</item>

I think that you are using TextAppearance.AppCompat.Base.Widget.PopupMenu. Here is the error, you are using another parent that doesn´t response the current style.

You have to use:

TextAppearance.AppCompat.Light.Widget.PopupMenu.

Answer 4

In styles.xml

<style name="itemTextStyle.AppTheme" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item">
        <item name="android:textColor">@drawable/color_item_popup</item>
        <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/text_content</item>
    </style>

and add in AppTheme

<item name="android:itemTextAppearance">@style/itemTextStyle.AppTheme</item>

color_item_popup.xml

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:color="@color/primary_text"/>
    <item android:state_focused="true" android:color="@color/primary_text"/>
    <item android:color="@color/secondary_text"/>
</selector>
