Initialize Typeface in a fragment

Question

i have this line :

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/Delius-Regular.ttf");

but the getAssets() parameter seems to bring some error, it is underlined with scary red lines, it says

The method getAssets() is undefined for the type ProfileFragment

ProfileFragment is the name of my class and it extends Fragment.

NOTE : The font style is also on the assets folder.

Answer 1

You cannot get getAssets() from a fragment directly. You have to use getActivity().getAssets() instead of using only getAssets().

Use this

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getActivity().getAssets(), "fonts/Delius-Regular.ttf");

instead of

Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/Delius-Regular.ttf");
