android - How to change the color of an indefinite ProgressBar?

Question

I have a progressbar with the following style: style="?android:attr/android:progressBarStyleSmall"

Sadly the bar is nearly white and in my case displayed on a white background. The progressbar is nearly invisible because of that.

How can I change the color of the progressbar? A darker grey would be great.

Answer 1

progressBar.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(
            getResources().getColor(R.color.light_light_purple),
            android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);

This code changes the default holo inderminate drawable color to your own color. Define your color code and replace R.color.light_light_purple to R.color.your_color_code.
