android:textAllCaps="false" not working for TabLayout design Support
I have set android:textAllCaps="false"
in my android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
thought it is showing the Tab Title in All caps only.
How can I remove all caps?
Solution 1:
UPDATE FOR DESIGN LIBRARY 23.2.0+
The original answer doesn't work with design library 23.2.0 or later. Thanks for @fahmad6 pointed out in comment, in case someone missed that comment, I'll put it here. You need to set both textAllCaps
and android:textAllCaps
to false
to disable all capitalize setting.
<style name="MyCustomTextAppearance" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Tab">
<item name="textAllCaps">false</item>
<item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>
ORIGINAL ANSWER
By default, tabs are created by TabLayout sets the textAllCaps property to be true, you have to define a style making this flag false.
<style name="MyCustomTabLayout" parent="Widget.Design.TabLayout">
<item name="tabTextAppearance">@style/MyCustomTextAppearance</item>
</style>
<style name="MyCustomTextAppearance" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Tab">
<item name="textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>
Solution 2:
@Paresh Mayani answer is correct however you can create only tab style
<style name="MyCustomTextAppearance" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Tab">
<item name="textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>
And use it using
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
app:tabTextAppearance="@style/MyCustomTextAppearance"
.../>
