android 定制PreferenceScreen

在使用PreferenceActivity的时候，布局文件的格式一般是这样的：

[html] view plain copy print ?

1. <PreferenceCategory
2. android:title="@string/launch_preferences">
4. <!--ThisPreferenceScreentagsendstheusertoanewfragmentof
5. preferences.Ifrunninginalargescreen,theycanbeembedded
6. insideoftheoverallpreferencesUI.-->
7. <PreferenceScreen
8. android:fragment="com.example.android.apis.preference.PreferenceWithHeaders$Prefs1FragmentInner"
9. android:title="@string/title_fragment_preference"
10. android:summary="@string/summary_fragment_preference">
11. <!--Arbitrarykey/valuepairscanbeincludedforfragmentarguments-->
12. <extraandroid:name="someKey"android:value="somePrefValue"/>
13. </PreferenceScreen>
15. <!--ThisPreferenceScreentagsendstheusertoacompletelydifferent
16. activity,switchingoutofthecurrentpreferencesUI.-->
17. <PreferenceScreen
18. android:title="@string/title_intent_preference"
19. android:summary="@string/summary_intent_preference">
21. <intentandroid:action="android.intent.action.VIEW"
22. android:data="http://www.android.com"/>
24. </PreferenceScreen>
26. </PreferenceCategory>

    <PreferenceCategory
            android:title="@string/launch_preferences">

        <!-- This PreferenceScreen tag sends the user to a new fragment of
             preferences.  If running in a large screen, they can be embedded
             inside of the overall preferences UI. -->
        <PreferenceScreen
                android:fragment="com.example.android.apis.preference.PreferenceWithHeaders$Prefs1FragmentInner"
                android:title="@string/title_fragment_preference"
                android:summary="@string/summary_fragment_preference">
            <!-- Arbitrary key/value pairs can be included for fragment arguments -->
            <extra android:name="someKey" android:value="somePrefValue" />
        </PreferenceScreen>

        <!-- This PreferenceScreen tag sends the user to a completely different
             activity, switching out of the current preferences UI. -->
        <PreferenceScreen
                android:title="@string/title_intent_preference"
                android:summary="@string/summary_intent_preference">

            <intent android:action="android.intent.action.VIEW"
                    android:data="http://www.android.com" />

        </PreferenceScreen>

    </PreferenceCategory>

但是我们不能控制其中的title和summary的字体的样式，使用的是系统的样式

怎么样修改title和summary的字体和颜色呢？

这里主要以PreferenceScreen为例说明：

首先PreferenceScreen的布局文件在 framework中

位置如下 /framework/base/core/res/res/layout/preference.xml具体内容如下

[html] view plain copy print ?

61. </LinearLayout>

<!-- Layout for a Preference in a PreferenceActivity. The
     Preference is able to place a specific widget for its particular
     type in the "widget_frame" layout. -->
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:paddingRight="?android:attr/scrollbarSize">
    
    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
        android:layout_marginTop="6dip"
        android:layout_marginBottom="6dip"
        android:layout_weight="1">
    
        <TextView android:id="@+android:id/title"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:singleLine="true"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
            android:ellipsize="marquee"
            android:fadingEdge="horizontal" />
            
        <TextView android:id="@+android:id/summary"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_below="@android:id/title"
            android:layout_alignLeft="@android:id/title"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
            android:maxLines="4" />

    </RelativeLayout>
    
    <!-- Preference should place its actual preference widget here. -->
    <LinearLayout android:id="@+android:id/widget_frame"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:orientation="vertical" />

</LinearLayout>

可以看到PreferenceScreen的布局文件中主要的是两个TextView分别显示title和summary

我们在每个app中可以按照这个样式重新定义PreferenceScreen的样式，比如我们可以定义一个custom_preference.xml文件内容和上面的差不多，只不过重新定义了其text的大小和颜色，在

[html] view plain copy print ?

1. <PreferenceScreen
2. android:fragment="com.example.android.apis.preference.PreferenceWithHeaders$Prefs1FragmentInner"
3. android:title="@string/title_fragment_preference"
4. android:summary="@string/summary_fragment_preference">
5. <!--Arbitrarykey/valuepairscanbeincludedforfragmentarguments-->
6. <extraandroid:name="someKey"android:value="somePrefValue"/>
7. </PreferenceScreen>

 <PreferenceScreen
                android:fragment="com.example.android.apis.preference.PreferenceWithHeaders$Prefs1FragmentInner"
                android:title="@string/title_fragment_preference"
                android:summary="@string/summary_fragment_preference">
            <!-- Arbitrary key/value pairs can be included for fragment arguments -->
            <extra android:name="someKey" android:value="somePrefValue" />
        </PreferenceScreen>

添加一个属性 android:layout="@layout/custom_preference" 加载自己的定义的preference的布局文件即可。

以此还可以 重新定义对应的

PrefercenceCategory 样式文件 --------------- framework/base/core/res/res/preference_category.xml

CheckBoxPreference 样式文件----------------- frameworks/base/core/res/res/layout/preference_widget_checkbox.xml

EditTextPreference 样式文件-----------------frameworks/base/core/res/res/layout/preference_dialog_edittext.xml

当然可能还有其他的更好的方法，希望和大家多多交流
