Single TextView with multiple colored text

Solution 1:

yes, if you format the String with html's font-color property then pass it to the method Html.fromHtml(your text here)

String text = "<font color=#cc0029>First Color</font> <font color=#ffcc00>Second Color</font>";
yourtextview.setText(Html.fromHtml(text));

Solution 2:

You can prints lines with multiple colors without HTML as:

TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mytextview01);
Spannable word = new SpannableString("Your message");        

word.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.BLUE), 0, word.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

textView.setText(word);
Spannable wordTwo = new SpannableString("Your new message");        

wordTwo.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.RED), 0, wordTwo.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
textView.append(wordTwo);

Solution 3:

I have done this way:

Set Color on Text by passing String and color:

private String getColoredSpanned(String text, String color) {
    String input = "<font color=" + color + ">" + text + "</font>";
    return input;
}

Set text on TextView / Button / EditText etc by calling below code:

TextView:

TextView txtView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.txtView);

Get Colored String:

String name = getColoredSpanned("Hiren", "#800000");
String surName = getColoredSpanned("Patel","#000080");

Set Text on TextView of two strings with different colors:

txtView.setText(Html.fromHtml(name+" "+surName));

Done
