[FIXED] What are the different ways to Change font Style in Android Studio

Issue

I am new in android app development. I want to change fonts of my Application. Just i wanna know different methods for change the font by XML and Java to. Want to change the font of : 1.TextView 2.RadioButton 3.EditText 4.CheckBox etc.

Solution

1. In Android Studio Right click on app & create a folder assets.

2. Right click on assets and create a folder fonts.

3. Download .ttf file i.e fontName.ttf and paste inside fonts folder.

Now you have to do main things. Inside your package create a class.

This class is for TextView

public class Railway_Regular extends TextView {
public Railway_Regular(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
    this.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"fonts/Raleway-Regular.ttf"));
}}

This class is for Button

public class Railway_Regular_Btn extends Button {
public Railway_Regular_Btn(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
    this.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"fonts/Raleway-Regular.ttf"));
}}

This class is for EditText

public class Railway_Regular_EdTx extends EditText {
public Railway_Regular_EdTx(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
    this.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"fonts/Raleway-Regular.ttf"));
}}

Like these you can create classes for all you Widgets & reference the fontname.ttf to your classes.

Now,for set textview as your font do this.

for TextView

<package_name.fonts.Railway_Regular
    android:padding="5sp"
    android:id="@+id/test_nameDR"
    android:layout_marginTop="4dp"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Details Text"
    android:textColor="@color/black"
    android:textSize="14sp"/>

for Button

 <package_name.fonts.Railway_Regular_Btn
    android:id="@+id/revSubmit"
    android:background="@color/greenDeep"
    android:layout_marginTop="-54dp"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="54dp"
    android:textColor="@color/white"
    android:textSize="16dp"
    android:text="SUBMIT REVIEW"
    />

for EditText

   <package_name.fonts.Railway_Regular_EdTx
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="40dp"
                android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
                android:layout_marginRight="30dp"
                android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
                android:textColorHint="@color/lightgray"
                android:textSize="14dp"
                android:background="@drawable/edit_text"
                android:id="@+id/email_id"
                android:hint="Email Id"
                android:inputType="textEmailAddress" />

Second Method to Change your font :

  Typeface typeface,typeface2;
  typeface = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"fonts/Raleway-Regular.ttf");
  typeface2 = Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"fonts/Raleway-SemiBold.ttf");

 button1.setTypeface(typeface);
 edit_text1.setTypeface(typeface2);
