Example 1 – TextView Color

Let us create an Android application with Kotlin support in Android Studio and change the text color of TextView in XML layout file.

activity_main.xml

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

android:id="@+id/linear_layout_id"

android:orientation="vertical"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent">

android:id="@+id/text_view_id"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:gravity="center"

android:textSize="40dp"

android:padding="50dp"

android:textColor="#9C27B0"

android:text="@string/hello" />
