public enum TextStyle extends Enum<TextStyle>
Enumeration of the style of text formatting and parsing.
Text styles define three sizes for the formatted text - 'full', 'short' and 'narrow'. Each of these three sizes is available in both 'standard' and 'stand-alone' variations.
The difference between the three sizes is obvious in most languages. For example, in English the 'full' month is 'January', the 'short' month is 'Jan' and the 'narrow' month is 'J'. Note that the narrow size is often not unique. For example, 'January', 'June' and 'July' all have the 'narrow' text 'J'.
The difference between the 'standard' and 'stand-alone' forms is trickier to describe as there is no difference in English. However, in other languages there is a difference in the word used when the text is used alone, as opposed to in a complete date. For example, the word used for a month when used alone in a date picker is different to the word used for month in association with a day and year in a date.
- Implementation Requirements:
- This is immutable and thread-safe enum.
- Since:
- 1.8
Enum Constants
| Enum Constant | Description |

FULL | Full text, typically the full description. |
FULL_STANDALONE | Full text for stand-alone use, typically the full description. |
NARROW | Narrow text, typically a single letter. |
NARROW_STANDALONE | Narrow text for stand-alone use, typically a single letter. |
SHORT | Short text, typically an abbreviation. |
SHORT_STANDALONE | Short text for stand-alone use, typically an abbreviation. |
Methods
| Modifier and Type | Method | Description |

FULL
public static final TextStyle FULL
Full text, typically the full description. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "Monday".
FULL_STANDALONE
public static final TextStyle FULL_STANDALONE
Full text for stand-alone use, typically the full description. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "Monday".
SHORT
public static final TextStyle SHORT
Short text, typically an abbreviation. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "Mon".
SHORT_STANDALONE
public static final TextStyle SHORT_STANDALONE
Short text for stand-alone use, typically an abbreviation. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "Mon".
NARROW
public static final TextStyle NARROW
Narrow text, typically a single letter. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "M".
NARROW_STANDALONE
public static final TextStyle NARROW_STANDALONE
Narrow text for stand-alone use, typically a single letter. For example, day-of-week Monday might output "M".
Methods
values
public static TextStyle[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (TextStyle c : TextStyle.values()) System.out.println(c);
- Returns:
- an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
valueOf
public static TextStyle valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
- Parameters:
-
name- the name of the enum constant to be returned. - Returns:
- the enum constant with the specified name
- Throws:
-
IllegalArgumentException- if this enum type has no constant with the specified name -
NullPointerException- if the argument is null
isStandalone
public boolean isStandalone()
Returns true if the Style is a stand-alone style.
- Returns:
- true if the style is a stand-alone style.
asStandalone
public TextStyle asStandalone()
Returns the stand-alone style with the same size.
- Returns:
- the stand-alone style with the same size
asNormal
public TextStyle asNormal()
Returns the normal style with the same size.
- Returns:
- the normal style with the same size
