Как изменить шрифт андроид студио

There are many ways to set custom font family on field and I am using like that below.

To add fonts as resources, perform the following steps in the Android Studio:

1) Right-click the res folder and go to New > Android resource directory. The New Resource Directory window appears.

2) In the Resource type list, select font, and then click OK.

Note: The name of the resource directory must be font.

3) Add your font files in the font folder.

Add font in desired view in your xml file:

Note: But you required the following things for that:

1. Android Studio above to 3.0 canary.

2. Your Activity extends AppCompatActivity.

3. Update your Gradle file like that:

    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion "26.0.1"
    defaultConfig {        
        minSdkVersion 19
        targetSdkVersion 26
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

buildtoolsVersion above to 26 and minimum targetSdkVersion required 26

1. Add dependencies in build.gradle file:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-beta4'

1. gradle-wrapper.properties:

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.1-all.zip

You can use easy & simple EasyFonts third party library to set variety of custom font to your TextView. By using this library you should not have to worry about downloading and adding fonts into the assets/fonts folder. Also about Typeface object creation. You will be free from creating asset folder too.

Simply:

TextView myTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.myTextView);
myTextView.setTypeface(EasyFonts.robotoThin(this));

There are many type of fonts provided by this library.

1. Create folder assets in Project -> app (or your app name) -> src -> main -> right click -> New -> Directory.
2. Then create a new directory inside assets called «fonts».

To assign the font to the textView:

TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.your_textView);

final Typeface font = Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(), "fonts/your_font_name");

your_font_name includes font extension.

1st add font.ttf file on font Folder. Then Add this line in onCreate method

    Typeface typeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(getApplicationContext(), R.font.myfont);
    mytextView.setTypeface(typeface);

And here is my xml

            <TextView
            android:id="@+id/idtext1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginTop="7dp"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="My Text"
            android:textColor="#000"
            android:textSize="10sp"
        />

To use the Fonts in XML feature on devices running Android 4.1 (API level 16) and higher, use the Support Library 26. For more information on using the support library, refer to the Using the support library section.

To add fonts as resources, perform the following steps in the Android Studio:

1. Right-click the res folder and go to New > Android resource directory.

   The New Resource Directory window appears.

2. In the Resource type list, select font, and then click OK.

3. Add your font files in the font folder.

Creating a font family
To create a font family, perform the following steps in the Android Studio:

1. Right-click the font folder and go to New > Font resource file. The New Resource File window appears.

2. Enter the file name, and then click OK. The new font resource XML opens in the editor.

3. Enclose each font file, style, and weight attribute in the element. The following XML illustrates adding font-related attributes in the font resource XML:
   If your minSdkVersion is API level 26 and higher

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<font-family xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <font
        android:fontStyle="normal"
        android:fontWeight="400"
        android:font="@font/lobster_regular" />
    <font
        android:fontStyle="italic"
        android:fontWeight="400"
        android:font="@font/lobster_italic" />
</font-family>

and if your minSdkVersion is lower than API level 26

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<font-family xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <font
        app:font="@font/lobster_italic"
        app:fontStyle="normal"
        app:fontWeight="400" />
</font-family>

Then you can use it any where like this

android:fontFamily="@font/your_custom_font_file"

Adding font to your project

To add fonts as resources, perform the following steps in the Android Studio:

1 — Right-click the res folder and go to New > Android resource directory.
The New Resource Directory window appears.

2 — In the Resource type list, select font, and then click OK.
3 — Add your font files in the font folder just by a simple copy and paste. note that the name of the fonts should be in lowercase.

Using fonts in XML layouts

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:fontFamily="@font/lobster"/>

Adding fonts to style

<style name="customfontstyle" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Small">
<item name="android:fontFamily">@font/lobster</item>
</style>

Using fonts programmatically

Kotlin:

val typeface = resources.getFont(R.font.myfont)
textView.typeface = typeface

JAVA:

Typeface typeface = getResources().getFont(R.font.myfont);
textView.setTypeface(typeface);

If you are very new to Android like I am this can be a little tricky. Make sure you call:

TextView myTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
Typeface typeface=Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/your font.ttf");
myTextView.setTypeface(typeface);

method within a method such as onCreate.

I could not load fonts because I had named my font file Poppins-Medium.tff, renaming it to poppins_medium.tff worked for me.
Rest of the steps remained the same:

• Create the font resource directory under res folder
• Copy and paste your tff file in that directory
• Then use in TextView in XML using fontFamily attribute.
• If above steps dont work, you can create a FontFamily of that font using this link

First create assets folder then create fonts folder in it.

Then you can set font from assets or directory like bellow :

public class FontSampler extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
        super.onCreate(icicle);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.custom);
        Typeface face = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/HandmadeTypewriter.ttf");

        tv.setTypeface(face);

        File font = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "MgOpenCosmeticaBold.ttf");

        if (font.exists()) {
            tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.file);
            face = Typeface.createFromFile(font);

            tv.setTypeface(face);
        } else {
            findViewById(R.id.filerow).setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    }
}

Add your fonts to assets folder in app/src/main/assets
make a custom textview like this :

class CustomLightTextView : TextView {

constructor(context: Context) : super(context){
    attachFont(context)
}
constructor(context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet):    super(context, attrs){
    attachFont(context)
}
constructor(context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet?,    defStyleAttr: Int) : super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr) {
    attachFont(context)
}
fun attachFont(context: Context) {
    this.setTypeface(FontCache.getInstance().getLightFont(context))
}

}

Add FontCache : So that you don’t have to create typeface again and again like :

class FontCache private constructor(){

val fontMap = HashMap<String,Typeface>()

companion object {
    private var mInstance : FontCache?=null
    fun getInstance():FontCache = mInstance?: synchronized(this){
        return mInstance?:FontCache().also { mInstance=it }
    }
}

fun getLightFont(context: Context):Typeface?{
    if(!fontMap.containsKey("light")){
        Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"Gotham-Book.otf");
        fontMap.put("light",Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"Gotham-Book.otf"))
    }
    return fontMap.get("light")
}

}

And you are done !

P.S.From android O, you can directly add fonts.

If you need to use fonts in code side, you can use this function also it has version code control.

fun getFontJarvisWhite(): Typeface {
    return if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) resources.getFont(R.font.jarvis_white)
    else context?.let { ResourcesCompat.getFont(it, R.font.jarvis_white) }!!
