setCompoundDrawableTintList(@Nullable ColorStateList tint)

SetCompoundDrawableTintList (@ Nullable ColorStateList tint) corresponding to the android: XML drawableTint, used to set up around the TextView drawable coloring.

Set the color of the images around the TextView only if SDK>=23.

{@link Drawable#setColorFilter(int, porterduff.mode)} method, in Java code to manually color around the image

Example: Tested on Android4.22Drawablecompat.settint (d1, color.red); drawablecompat.settint (d1, color.red); drawablecompat.settint (d1, color.red); DrawableCompat.setTintMode(d1, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP); Drawable d1 = getResources().getDrawable(r.map.i1).mutate(); d1.setBounds(0.0.64.64);
d1.setColorFilter(Color.RED, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);
Drawable d2 = getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.i2).mutate();
d2.setBounds(0.0.64.64);
d2.setColorFilter(Color.RED, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);
Drawable[] drawables = tv_drawableTint.getCompoundDrawables();
drawables[0] = d1;
drawables[2] = d2;
tv_drawableTint.setCompoundDrawables(drawables[0],drawables[1],drawables[2],drawables[3]);Copy the code

SetLineSpacing (float Add, float Mult) :

SetLineSpacing (float add, float mult) corresponding to the android: XML lineSpacingMultiplier and android: lineSpacingExtra, used to set the multi-line TextView in single row height.
