How do I change the text color of a Button?

Answer 1

try this:

button.setTextColor(getApplication().getResources().getColor(R.color.red)); //TAKE DEFAULT COLOR 

or

button.setTextColor(0xff0000); //SET CUSTOM COLOR  

or

button.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ff0000"));  

and in xml :

<Button android:id="@+id/mybtn"          android:text="text textx "           android:layout_width="fill_parent"          android:layout_height="wrap_content"           android:textStyle="bold"          android:textColor="#ff0000" />  <-- SET TEXT COLOR HERE --> 

Answer 2

Use the android:textColor property.

<Button     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:text="Hello World"     android:textColor="@android:color/white" />
