I just changed the background of a ToggleButton
, and now I'm looking to change the ON/OFF text that comes up with it. What is the easiest way to do this?

In some cases, you need to force refresh the view in order to make it work.
toggleButton.setTextOff(textOff);
toggleButton.requestLayout();
toggleButton.setTextOn(textOn);
toggleButton.requestLayout();
You can do this by 2 options:
Option 1: By setting its xml attributes
`android:textOff="TEXT OFF"
android:textOn="TEXT ON"`
Option 2: Programmatically
Set the attribute onClick: methodNameHere (mine is toggleState) Then write this code:
public void toggleState(View view) {
boolean toggle = ((ToogleButton)view).isChecked();
if (toggle){
((ToogleButton)view).setTextOn("TEXT ON");
} else {
((ToogleButton)view).setTextOff("TEXT OFF");
}
}
PS: it works for me, hope it works for you too
It appears you no longer need toggleButton.setTextOff(textOff); and toggleButton.setTextOn(textOn);. The text for each toggled state will change by merely including the relevant xml characteristics. This will override the default ON/OFF text.
<ToggleButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/toggleText"
android:textOff="ADD TEXT"
android:textOn="CLOSE TEXT"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:visibility="gone"/>
Set the XML as:
<ToggleButton
android:id="@+id/flashlightButton"
style="@style/Button"
android:layout_above="@+id/buttonStrobeLight"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:onClick="onToggleClicked"
android:text="ToggleButton"
android:textOn="Light ON"
android:textOff="Light OFF" />
Yes you can change the on / off button
android:textOn="Light ON"
android:textOff="Light OFF"

In the example you link to, they are changing it to Day/Night by using android:textOn
and android:textOff
