How to change the hint size of TextInputLayout
Solution 1
In your styles.xml
<style name="TextLabel" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Hint">
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
</style>
And then in your layout file:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:layout_marginTop="12dp"
app:hintTextAppearance="@style/TextLabel"
android:minHeight="30dp">
Solution 2
Change the TextInputLayout's app:errorTextAppearance
in XML.
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:errorTextAppearance="@style/CustomTextInputLayoutStyle.ErrorTextStyle">
Where CustomTextInputLayoutStyle.ErrorTextStyle
is defined in styles.xml
as
<style name="CustomTextInputLayoutStyle.ErrorTextStyle" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Error">
<item name="android:textSize">10sp</item>
</style>
Solution 3
@Santiago Martínez answer only works for hints on non empty Edittext
(inside TextInputLayout
)
But for empty Edittext
, TextInputLayout
hint takes property from Edittext
textSize
.
Solution 4
1) Add hintTextAppearance
to your InputLayout with a style
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:hintTextAppearance="@style/TextInputLayoutHintText" >
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="16sp" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
2) Then just add the style to your styles.xml
<style name="TextInputLayoutHintText">
<item name="android:textColor">@color/gray</item>
<item name="android:textSize">12sp</item></style>
Solution 5
For material 1.4.0
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0'
You only need to change the android:textSize
attribute for the TextInputEditText
for the hint size to change.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="18sp"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

Ara Badalyan over 2 years
This is my xml
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout style="@style/main_input_text" android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/activity_medium_margin" app:hintTextAppearance="@style/TextAppearence.App.TextInputLayout"> <android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatEditText style="@style/main_edit_text" android:inputType="text" /> </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
And this is style
<style name="main_input_text"> <item name="android:layout_width">match_parent</item> <item name="android:layout_height">@dimen/activity_edittext_height</item> <item name="android:background">@drawable/mc_shape_border_button_transparent</item> <item name="android:gravity">center_vertical</item> <item name="android:paddingTop">@dimen/activity_extra_small_margin</item> <item name="android:paddingBottom">@dimen/activity_extra_small_margin</item> <item name="android:keyTextSize">8sp</item> <item name="android:textSize">8sp</item> </style>
I don't find something like hintSize, textSize and keyTextSize not helping
-
Ara Badalyan over 8 yearsThe problem is that i whant to make edit text size biger and hint smaller.
-
eugeneek almost 7 yearsAnyway it is not worked. Hint size only increased in
EditText
, not inTextInputLayout
. -
Neeraj Bagra over 5 yearsThis style not working when there is no text in edittext (inside TextInputLayout).
-
Kirill Starostin almost 5 years@NeerajBagra It seems that hint's color in an unfocused style must be set by the
android:textColorHint
attribute
