Is it possible to set the color of a string directly in string.xml?

Question

I mean something like:

<string name="error" color="#9a1d1d">Error!</string>

Answer 1

As suggested by rekire not possible to set color the way you are doing.

You can use the method as suggested by rekire.

In you xml you can specify color for your textview as

  android:textColor="#0EFFFF"

You can also set text color programaticaly

  TextView tv= (TextView)findviewById(R.id.textView1);
  tv.setTextColor(Color.RED);  

To set color of particular words in textview, you can use spannable string

    TextView tv= (TextView)findviewById(R.id.textView1);
    tv.setText("");  
    String s="Hello World";
    SpannableString ss=  new SpannableString(s);                
    ss.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.GREEN), 0, 5, 0);  
    tv.setText(ss);
