Changing text color of list view in android

I am trying to change the text color of a listview in Android. Can anyone please give me a h开发者_如何学Ceads up on how it's done?

Yes possible

please add a separate layout with the textview

    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" >


 <TextView
        android:id="@android:id/text1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
        android:paddingLeft="6dip"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:paddingRight="10dip"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
</LinearLayout>

and change the **android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1** to and pass the textview id like this

new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.layoutfilename,*android.R.id.text1*,userList);

You can use themes to set the styles for your TextViews. From the Android dev site.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <style name="CodeFont" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Medium">
        <item name="android:textColor">#00FF00</item>
        <item name="android:typeface">monospace</item>
    </style>
</resources>

Then to use it:

<TextView style="@style/CodeFont" />

Edit - based on comment

You asked about multiple color in the same TextView: Your best bet is to use html. Which you set in a TextView for example:

myTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml("<p style="color:red">" + someText + "</p><p style="color:blue">" + someOtherText + "</p>"));

Have you tried something like android:textColor="#ffffff" in your layout.xml file?
