Android Question How to change text size/color of a CustomLayoutDialog?

[AscySoft]

It seems strange but I don;t know how to do it
I did try the following

Dim DetailsDialog As CustomLayoutDialog
Dim txt As CSBuilder 
txt.Initialize.Size(20).Color(Colors.Red).Append($"Input password ..."$).PopAll
Dim sf As Object = DetailsDialog.ShowAsync(txt, "Ok", "", "",Null, False)
DetailsDialog.SetSize(100%x, 220dip)
Wait For (sf) Dialog_Ready(pnl As Panel)
pnl.LoadLayout("password")'a simple layout file in my project

All is working except custom color/size etc???
My guess is that there's another way to format text after panel is loading, and not before.

CustomLayoutDialog.ShowAsync expects Strings, not CharSequences. This means that the extra style attributes are removed.

You can include a label in your layout and then set it with:

pnl.LoadLayout(...)
Label1.Text = txt

I recommend you to use B4XDialog for new projects.

not CharSequences.

And I guess this is like upgrading old piece of code, that also was replaced by B4XDialog

for new projects

it's an old project, but thank you for the tip. I think it was nicer if CustomLayoutDialog.ShowAsync would expect CharSequences but I get that this is not worth the trouble any more (only for older projects). Thank you aniway.
