how to give color to the application title string in android

Issue

I want to give the rgb color to the application title string in my application string in the resource file I have declared like this,

<string name="app_name">MyApplication</string>

and used it to set the title in manifest file like this,

<activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait" 
        android:theme="@style/MyTheme"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"> 

I want to give different color to My and Application words, rgb(201,89,51) for My and rgb(74,137,174) respectively

How can I do this?

Solution

try this

 getActionBar().setTitle(Html.fromHtml("<font color='#ff0000'>My</font><font color='#ff00ff'>Application</font>"));

if you are using appcompact :

getSupportActionBar().setTitle(Html.fromHtml("<font color='#ff0000'>My</font><font color='#ff00ff'>Application</font>"));
