How to customize the style of an Android checkbox?

To customize the style of an Android Checkbox, follow these steps:

  1. Create a new XML file (e.g. checkbox_custom.xml) to define a custom checkbox style. In this file, you can use various Android properties to modify the checkbox style, such as background, button, textColor, and more.
  2. Apply custom styles to checkboxes in your layout file using the style attribute.
<CheckBox
    android:id="@+id/checkbox"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    style="@style/MyCheckboxStyle" />
  1. The XML file that contains information on different styles.
  2. The style of my checkbox
<style name="MyCheckboxStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.CompoundButton.CheckBox">
    <item name="android:button">@drawable/checkbox_custom</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">#FF0000</item>
    <!-- 更多属性 -->
</style>
  1. a picture or image that can be displayed on a computer or mobile device
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <!-- 选择状态 -->
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/checkbox_selected" android:state_checked="true" />
    <!-- 默认状态 -->
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/checkbox_unselected" />
</selector>
  1. drawable – something that can be drawn or sketched
  2. selected_checkbox.xml
  3. The file checkbox_unselected.xml
<!-- checkbox_selected.xml -->
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid android:color="#FF0000" />
    <!-- 更多样式属性 -->
</shape>

<!-- checkbox_unselected.xml -->
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid android:color="#000000" />
    <!-- 更多样式属性 -->
</shape>
