How To Get Styled Text From Textview

Quite simple problem: I have some TextView TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1); I set styled text (with tags or any other tags) textView.setText

Solution 1:

@Wand Maker's assumption (see comments in question) was correct

Following code works:

TextViewtextView= (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView.setText(Html.fromHtml("Simple text. <b>Bold text</b>. Simple text."), TextView.BufferType.EDITABLE);
StringalmostSameText= Html.toHtml(tv.getEditableText()).toString();

The result is: <p>Simple text. <b>Bold text</b>. Simple text</p>
