ListView with different color rows

We known how to color ListView row android, so is there any way to set color for each row different ?

Declare an arraylist.

ArrayList<String> fru = new ArrayList<String>();

Add elements in to arraylist.

fru.add("Pear");

fru.add("Banana");

fru.add("Cashew");

fru.add("Orange");

fru.add("Water melon");

fru.add("Peach");

fru.add("Grape");

fru.add("Mango");

fru.add("Plum");im

In folder layout, create a file name li.xml.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="42sp"   

    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <ImageView

        android:id="@+id/im"

        android:layout_width="40sp"

        android:layout_height="45sp"

        android:layout_centerVertical="true"

        android:layout_marginLeft="5sp"

        android:contentDescription="@null"

        android:src="@drawable/cuoi" />

    <TextView

        android:id="@+id/text"

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_centerVertical="true"

        android:layout_marginLeft="5sp"

        android:layout_toEndOf="@+id/im"

        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/im"

        android:textColor="#0000aa"

        android:textSize="18sp" />

    <ImageView

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"

        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"

        android:layout_centerVertical="true"

        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"

        android:contentDescription="@null"

        android:src="@drawable/ten" />

</RelativeLayout>

Copy icon to folder drawable and change scr name if needs.

Create a new class name listp, source code below.

public class listp extends ArrayAdapter<String> {

      

private final Activity context;    

private final ArrayList<String>  item;       

public listp(Activity context, ArrayList<String> item) {

     super(context, R.layout.li, item);

               // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub           

     this.context=context;              

     this.item=item;          

}   

     @SuppressLint({ "ViewHolder", "InflateParams" })

public View getView(int position,View view,ViewGroup parent) {

LayoutInflater inflater=context.getLayoutInflater();

View rowView=inflater.inflate(R.layout.li, null,true);            

TextView txtTitle = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.text);             

     txtTitle.setText(item.get(position));

              

     if(position==0){

               txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#FF0000"));

               }

     else if(position==1){

               txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#FF7F50"));

               }

     else if(position==2){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#0000FF"));

                     }

     else if(position==3){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#00ffff"));

                     }

     else if(position==4){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#800080"));

                     }

     else if(position==5){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#00FF00"));

                     }

     else if(position==6){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#800000"));

                     }

               else if(position==7){

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#008000"));

                     }

               else{

                     txtTitle.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#FF00FF"));

               }             

               return rowView;

              

          };

     }

We create custom adapter, in if command we set color for rows depending on it’s position. You can change to whatever you want.

After that, set adapter for ListView like this

adapter= new listp(this,fru);

Run to see ListView with different color rows.

If want to change text font, add this line in class listp.

txtTitle.setTypeface(Typeface.MONOSPACE, Typeface.BOLD);

If want to change font size, add this line

txtTitle.setTextSize(android.util.TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 16);

Run to see font changed.
