Material text sizes XML for Android

Simple helper file for standard text sizes in material design. The sizes are provided by the material design documentation https://www.google.com/design/spec/style/typography.html#typography-roboto

Standard Styles

Too many type sizes and styles at once can wreck any layout. A typographic scale is a limited set of type sizes that work well together, along with the layout grid. The basic set of styles are based on a typographic scale of 12, 14, 16, 20, and 34.

material_text_size.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <dimen name="material_text_button">14sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_menu">14sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_caption">12sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_body1">14sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_body2">13sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_subhead">16sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_title">20sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_headline">24sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_display1">34sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_display2">45sp</dimen>
    <dimen name="material_text_display3">56sp</dimen>

Thank you!

With AppCompat, I use something like this now:

<TextView
      android:id="@+id/textView"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      style="@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Title"
      tools:text="I'm a title"/>

Your Deprecated note pointed me in the right direction. Thank you. I leave it here because this page pops out every time on Google Search.

cool beans!

Thank you!
and thank user hamen for direction

PS: but @style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body1
don`t define line height and tracking
it defines only

1. fontFamily
2. size
3. color

So we need to create custom style for full implementation of official Material Design guidelines

Saved me some time, thank you!

Thanks !

Very useful!
I,m visit this page when i forgot which style must to use :-D

This page shows contradictory information to the material design documentation (see link). In the material design Body 1 uses regular font and a bigger font size than Body 2, making Body 1 more bold. On this page it is the other way around Body 2 uses medium font and same font size as Body 1, making Body 2 more bold.
