Different colors at EditText in Android

Question

I am trying to make the text of an EditText multiple colors. For example, if my text is, "It is a good day.", is it possible to make the "It is a" part of the sentence green and the rest red?

Answer 1

I use something like that to make some parts of my color green:

final String text = "Some Text";
Spannable modifiedText = new SpannableString(text);
modifiedText.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(getResources().getColor(R.color.green)), 0, lengthYouWant, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
textView.setText(modifiedText);
