Design and API Documentation
MaterialTextView
Usage
Example code of how to include the component in your layout is listed here for reference.
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/text_view_id"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello" />
</LinearLayout>
Note: If you use our full themes (which we recommend), TextView will
auto-inflate to MaterialTextView, otherwise, you will need to specify
<com.google.android.material.textview.MaterialTextView in your xml.
Attributes
MaterialTextView supports all of the standard attributes that can be changed
for a
AppCompatTextView.
Unlike the AppCompatTextView which supports specifying the line height only in
a view layout XML, MaterialTextView supports the ability to read the line
height from a TextAppearance style, which can be applied to the
MaterialTextView either using the style attribute or using the
android:textAppearance attribute.
The following additional attributes can be changed in TextAppearance and
applied to a MaterialTextView:
| Feature | Relevant attributes |
|---|---|
| Line Height | android:lineHeight |
