Changing Font restarts activity

Question

Activity is getting restarted when system font is changed while app is running.

Is there any way I can avoid restarting of my Activity? I tested it with basic "Hello World" application.

I am using Android 4.1 as target

PS: I have tried using android:configChanges but there wasn't any flag related to font change.

Answer 1

U should use android:configChanges="fontScale" . but you would then need to handle that configuration change yourself by overriding onConfigurationChanged() Can refer this
