I was trying to set the following attribute of BottomNavigationView widget
app:itemTextColor="@color/text_color"
But this sets the text color of active and inactive item both. I want to have different text color on active and inactive item of BottomNavigationView.
First, you have to make a selectable color in res>color>selectable_color
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_checked="true" android:color="@color/selected_text_color" />
<item android:state_checked="false" android:color="@color/unselected_text_color"/>
</selector>
Then you have to set this selectable color as itemTextColor in BottomNavigationView widget
app:itemTextColor="@color/selectable_text_color"
