I am using a collapsible toolbar in a project and I am trying to set the textStyle
of the expanded collapsing toolbar title to bold.
For some reason I can change pretty much anything using a custom text appearance except textStyle
. Does anyone have any information about that issue? I found it hard to search in the internet. I tried programmatically to no avail neither.
<!-- style resource -->
...
<style name="Toolbar_Title" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Large">
<item name="android:fontFamily">sans-serif-condensed</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
<item name="android:textSize">@dimen/detail_title_text_size</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
</style>
...
<!-- layout file -->
...
<android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
android:id="@+id/collapsing_toolbar_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:expandedTitleMarginBottom="16dp"
app:expandedTitleMarginStart="16dp"
app:expandedTitleTextAppearance="@style/Toolbar_Title"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed|snap">
...
This one works for me. Having defined the text appearance in the layout file for the collapsing toolbar I can use the setExpandedTitleTypeface
function to add a bold style to the currently used type face:
mCollapsingToolbarLayout.setExpandedTitleTypeface(Typeface.create(mCollapsingToolbarLayout.getExpandedTitleTypeface(), Typeface.BOLD));
The attribute textStyle
does not seem to be taken into account by the collapsing toolbar.
A disadvantage is that the collapsing toolbar by default ellipsizes the title, which may not be a desired behaviour in some cases.
