Realtime accent color change ? #8

Closed bmbariah closed 7 years ago

Can we have the accent colors change immediately after apply? That is without leaving the current screen? I tried to trigger a color change from color picker dialog but it doesn't do anything to the current screen

I don't think this is possible without extra implemetations of change events/callback. If you change the theme you even have to restart the activity if I have the source code correctly in mind.

Thanks, turns out Themes are immutable and have to be per-declared and can't be changed on the go to the millions of the colors available

Apologies on the late reply, but this is indeed actually possible. I've implemented the same thing in my own App, Cluttr. Feel free to check it out & see how I implemented it.

Looks great, how did you achieve this? Are you reloading the entire activity?
