Colored Toast

Color Toast In Android

In this tutorial we will show how to build a colored Toast with the help of TextView with an example. 

Color Toast:

Color Toast is same as Toast but we will show a message in a colored TextView in a Toast.You can change the color of Toast to which ever you like.

//  Toast with Long Period 
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Message Here", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
TextView textView = (TextView) toast.getView().findViewById(android.R.id.message);
textView.setTextColor(Color.RED);
toast.show();

//  Toast with Short Period
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Message Here", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
TextView textView = (TextView) toast.getView().findViewById(android.R.id.message);
textView.setTextColor(Color.YELLOW);
toast.show();

Now we will show a Toast on Click of a Button in Android Studio.

Example:

File: activity_main.xml:

<RelativeLayout 
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"    
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"    
android:layout_width="match_parent"    
android:layout_height="match_parent"    
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"    
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"    
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"    
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"    
tools:context="com.example.hss_24.toast.MainActivity">

<Button       
android:id="@+id/button"       
android:layout_width="match_parent"       
android:layout_height="wrap_content"       
android:text="Click Me "       
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"       
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"       
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"       
android:layout_marginTop="158dp" />

</RelativeLayout>

File: MainActivity.java:
import android.graphics.Color;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
        button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         @Override           
 public void onClick(View v) {
 Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"You Clicked A Button", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
 TextView textView = (TextView) toast.getView().findViewById(android.R.id.message);
 textView.setTextColor(Color.RED);
 toast.show();

            }
        });


    }
}



Output:
