Remarks

Span that allows setting the style of the text it's attached to. Possible styles are: Typeface#NORMAL, Typeface#BOLD, Typeface#ITALIC and Typeface#BOLD_ITALIC.

Note that styles are cumulative -- if both bold and italic are set in separate spans, or if the base style is bold and a span calls for italic, you get bold italic. You can't turn off a style from the base style.

For example, the StyleSpan can be used like this:

SpannableString string = new SpannableString("Bold and italic text");
            string.setSpan(new StyleSpan(Typeface.BOLD), 0, 4, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
            string.setSpan(new StyleSpan(Typeface.ITALIC), 9, 15, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

Constructors

StyleSpan(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)	A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.
StyleSpan(Parcel)	Creates a `StyleSpan` from a parcel.
StyleSpan(TypefaceStyle, Int32)	Creates a `StyleSpan` from a style and font weight adjustment.
StyleSpan(TypefaceStyle)	Creates a `StyleSpan` from a style.

Properties

Class	Returns the runtime class of this `Object`. (Inherited from Object)

Handle	The handle to the underlying Android instance. (Inherited from Object)
JniIdentityHashCode	(Inherited from Object)
JniPeerMembers
PeerReference	(Inherited from Object)
SpanTypeId	Return a special type identifier for this span class.
Style	Returns the style constant defined in `Typeface`.
ThresholdClass	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
ThresholdType	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
Underlying	Returns "this" for most CharacterStyles, but for CharacterStyles that were generated by `#wrap`, returns the underlying CharacterStyle. (Inherited from CharacterStyle)
