How to get accent color programmatically?
You can fetch it from the current theme in this way:
private int fetchAccentColor() { TypedValue typedValue = new TypedValue(); TypedArray a = mContext.obtainStyledAttributes(typedValue.data, new int[] { R.attr.colorAccent }); int color = a.getColor(0, 0); a.recycle(); return color;}
This worked for me as well:
public static int getThemeAccentColor (final Context context) { final TypedValue value = new TypedValue (); context.getTheme ().resolveAttribute (R.attr.colorAccent, value, true); return value.data;}
private static int getThemeAccentColor(Context context) { int colorAttr; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) { colorAttr = android.R.attr.colorAccent; } else { //Get colorAccent defined for AppCompat colorAttr = context.getResources().getIdentifier("colorAccent", "attr", context.getPackageName()); } TypedValue outValue = new TypedValue(); context.getTheme().resolveAttribute(colorAttr, outValue, true); return outValue.data;}
