Setting color of marked text of textfield

Question

I was looking for an answer, but I wonder why nobody asks this kind of question. Maybe I just formualted it wrong. Basically, the only thing I want i to change the marker color from Purple->Orange, but I can't find the correspondive android: attribute to do so. Is there an attribute where I can change the color?

Does this answer your question? [How to change color / appearance of EditText select handle / anchor?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15133926/how-to-change-color-appearance-of-edittext-select-handle-anchor) — Zain, Jul 25 '21 at 03:10

Edit:

As far as I know this comes from the colorAccent defined in your styles.xml, colors.xml. Changing it there did the trick for me. Hope it helps.
