This line of code does not work

[dreamworld]

ListView1.TwoLinesAndBitmap.SecondLabel.Typeface=Typeface.CreateNew (Typeface.DEFAULT ,Typeface.STYLE_ITALIC)

I have tested it, without any effect.
Is there anyone who knows the reason why.

The following line can work:
ListView1.TwoLinesAndBitmap.SecondLabel.TextSize =20

Note that you should post questions in the questions forum.

Try this code:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
   Dim lv As ListView
   lv.Initialize("")
   Activity.AddView(lv, 0, 0, 200dip, 300dip)
   lv.TwoLinesAndBitmap.SecondLabel.Typeface = Typeface.CreateNew(Typeface.DEFAULT, Typeface.STYLE_ITALIC)
   lv.AddTwoLinesAndBitmap("aaaaaa", "aaaaaa", Null)
End Sub

Ok, I will post questions in the questions forum later.

But what's the difference between your code and mine?
I can't see any differences.
The code still can't work. And the font style of the text is still regular.
It seems that the default font style of your ListView is bold. And that is not changeable.

And the font style of the text is still bold, not regular or italic.

This is how it looks here:

The second label is indeed in italic style.

Note that CustomListView class is easier to work with and especially customize.

I tested by a real device, not by AVD.
And that code really did not work.

I think this has been discussed before. I recall that I also was unable to get italic working setting the style by code. Maybe it was related to a specific version of Android - I don't remember but I was not able to resolve it.

This screenshot is from a Galaxy Nexus.

Googling for this issue, it seems like there is a bug in some Samsung models and the default font doesn't include an italic style. You can load your own font instead.
