I have implemented a custom Date Picker wherein I need to have custom colors for the number picker (Date picker uses Number picker inside) inside it as follows:
Expected



With the help of this answer I could make it look like this:
Actual Result



But as you see the actual date is getting shown in the yellow color instead of white.
Moreover, I tried doing it at run time like this:



npMonth.setOnValueChangedListener(new OnValueChangeListener() {

@Override
public void onValueChange(NumberPicker picker, int oldVal, int newVal) {
EditText et = ((EditText) npMonth.getChildAt(0));
et.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.gold));
}
});


But still no luck.



How to change just the center text color to white and keep the top and bottom text yellow?

  • Well that's rather discouraging @PearsonArtPhoto. All is done except fzr the central text color and I'll have to switch to some third party libs. I think I should spend some more time fiddling with it.
