Set colors programmatically

[tobiasschuerg]

Similar to stepperLayout.setBackgroundColor(color) there should be a method stepperLayout.setButtonColor(color) or stepperLayout.setTextColor(color) to set the text color of a button color programmatically.

Although the above would be enough for my use case, as an alternative StepViewModel could have to two more fields backButtonTextColor and nextButtonTextColor to set the text color indivially for each step.

This should probably have two versions i.e. one taking a color int as a parameter and a second one with a ColorStateList param.
Could add more information on why would you like to have this feature implemented i.e. describe your use case a bit?

[tobiasschuerg]

The stepperLayout.setTextColor(color) would be enough for my use case. I just want to set the background color and according to that to retain readability I also need to adjust the textcolor.

But would you like to change the background color of the buttons per step as well? Or the entire bottom navigation bar?

I would really want that, I need to change the color of the bottom bar programatically as well as the button and the active step color, for business reason, I'll sometime receive a color via a webservice and I need to use this color to "theme" the application.

Any news?

Hi @Rainer-Lang,
So I haven't really had time to address this so far, but any contributions are welcome!

I've added this and it's available on the develop branch currently. It will be released in 4.3.0 shortly.

Thanks all for contributing!
