My operating system is windows. So in my PC there is one font called 'Ayuthaya.ttf' (that's not windows default font).
I want to use this font in android studio. But in font list from android studio settings I can't find that font.
But in IntelliJ's settings the font is visible. So how can I fix it?
This might be a little too late but in case someone encounters a similar problem.
If you are running Windows Build 1809 then a possible solution would be:
Delete your currently installed font.
Select the font or fonts (regular, light, etc...).
Right-click & select "Install for all users".
Restart Android Studio.
This happens because since build 1809 fonts are installed to:
C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts
while before build 1809 they were installed to:
C:\Windows\Fonts
Okay so I've actually had this issue in the past, this kind of issue usually happens when you change the default font on Windows. For example, I changed my default windows font to "San Francisco" by Apple and it literally made everything on Android Studio unreadable.
To fix the issue, just change the default font on Windows. If you're having trouble changing the font then I can provide you with a script to change the font.
I have a problem with Android Studio, the content of each text in the editor is illegible, even line numbers.
Everything happened after a push to a repository. When loading the project in Android Studio.

OS: Windows 10.
Android Studio 3.2.1
No matter what file or project I open, everything looks the same
Files looks good in any other editor
IDE language is fine, only editor gets corrupted
When copying any text from the editor to the clipboard, the text is pasted well elsewhere.
Just go to File > Settings > Editor > Font and Change the font to any of the readable ones
Font Settings
I was trying to change the font of Android Studio. I selected a font and pressed Apply Changes button of the Dialog and from then onward my android studio looks like this.
I re-install the software which also doesn't solve the problem.
I also tried to change the theme font from the xml file located at C:\Users\tuser\.AndroidStudio1.5\config\colors\Obsidian\ which is also not working.
I Read, How to reset android studio font, and tried pressing shift twice and ctrl + shift + a, the search dialog appears like this
So, How can i restore the font?
Maybe this will help (I see you're using windows):
Go to your User Folder - on Windows 7/8 this would be:
[SYSDRIVE]:\Users[your username] (ex. C:\Users\JohnDoe)
In this folder there should be a folder called .AndroidStudio (notice
the period at the start - so on some OSes it would be hidden).
Delete this folder (or better yet, move it to a backup location - so
you can return it if something goes wrong).
This should reset your Android Studio settings to default.

I have just installed Android Studio in my Window 7 64bit.
When I launch the application the background of the screen where we write the code is white.
I would prefer black or any other color.
I am not sure whether we can change the color/theme OR add more themes.
File->Settings->Editor->Colors & Fonts-> In scheme name select Darcula and apply to see a awesome dark background theme editor
Android Studio 3.1.2
File->Settings->Editor->Color Scheme-> In scheme name select Darcula and apply to see a awesome dark background theme editor
You can download new themes from https://github.com/sdvoynikov/color-themes -- note that the project is deprecated at this time, but the sources are still available.
Once you have downloaded the .jar file, go to File -> Import Settings... and choose the file downloaded.
//you need to go to the File-> settings
in that choose IDE settings-> Appearance in that choose the Theme: options
Windows
File->Settings->Editor->Colors & Fonts->
Mac OSX
Android Studio -> Preferences->Editor->Colors&Fonts
Dayle Reese has an amazing set of color schemes available for use in both AndroidStudio and Intellij. Depending on the IDE you are using, these ICLS files go into a particular directory (This is for Windows):
Android Studio
%USERPROFILE%/.AndroidStudio/config/colors
IntelliJ
%USERPROFILE%/.IntelliJIdea/config/colors
Once you've placed the ICLS files in one of the directories above, relaunch the IDE so that it picks up the new themes. There is also a nice page containing a preview of most/all the themes so you can figure out which ones you like most. Enjoy.
If one just need to change (strictly just) the editor's background to your own colour.
Preferences > Editor > Color & Fonts > General > Default Text > Background
Although you need to save it as your own theme.
Just a note for people in the future.
To add more themes on a Mac, put the theme .icls files in
~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio/colors/
Then restart Android Studio. And select your new themes in
Android Studio > Preferences > Editor > Colors&Fonts
Android Studio can use any theme that are made for jetbrains IDE. Here is a good Github repo that has many themes for different IDEs.
Also, the Color Ide plugin is a good tool that changes the background colour of all menus in Android Studio to match your theme. Try it, the IDE will look much better.
Windows should have similar setups, just the theme directory will be a bit different, search for JetBrains Ide theme location should give you the result.
Press Ctrl+` (Back Quote).
Then select "Switch Color Scheme" or press 1.
Select "Dracula" or press 2.
(Note: the exact paths shown here are primarily for Windows and Linux. I know Mac has a few non-standard paths, so if you're on Mac, you may have to adjust the starting bit of the path. The point is, get into settings however you'd do that on a Mac)
Switch theme:
File -> Settings-> Appearance & behavior -> Appearance.
Select the "theme" dropdown, and change between whatever themes you have installed. It shows the default themes and any you have installed in the form of plugins.
Install new themes
As plugin from plugins.jetbrains.com
File-> Settings -> plugins -> install JetBrains plugin/browse repositories/install plugin from disk
Note: newer versions of Android Studio, and possibly IntelliJ, (at least Jan. 2021 and out) may instead have a Marketplace tab in place of the first and/or second one.
The last part has three different options. The first has a few amount of plugins, and looks like only the official plugins. Browse repositories have much more plugins, and seems to be like going to the plugin page. This is a shorter way than going to the intelliJ plugin page and downloading the plugins manually. If you download, click install plugin from disk. This allows you to drag and drop, or find .jar files.
In the install JetBrains plugins, browse repositories, and (newer versions) Marketplace tabs should have a search functionality. You can search for i.e. "theme" from there.
Download a color theme you like - some sites host these, and some GitHub repos may offer them as well. [Editor's note: the website previously linked here has been replaced with spam]
Import the theme. File -> Import Settings. Navigate to the theme-name.jar. Click the "Ok" button. This will tell you restart your application, at least it did for me, and it automatically selected the theme for my editor.
Change the editor's theme color by going to File -> Settings -> Editor -> Colors & Fonts. Select the scheme and click the "Ok" button.
Note that this changes the editor's theme color, not the entire application's theme.
File->Settings->Appearance
There's a dropdown box with various themes.
Mac OS
To install new Theme on Mac go to Preferences -> Plugins -> Browse Repositories -> Select Category "UI" and search theme name, I recommend "Material Theme UI" click on the green button "Install" and then restart after installation.
If your theme is .icls format.
Right click on finder and select "go to folder"
type "~/Library/" to go to hidden library folder
find "Preferences"
find "AndroidStudio2.x"
if you don't have "colors" folder then create one
paste .icls theme files into colors.
new theme will be installed.
to change themes go to Preferences -> Editor -> Colors & Fonts and then select the scheme.
In 2.3.2 i can change the theme by following
View -> Quick Switch Theme -> 6.Look and Feel
Go to File > Settings,
now under IDE settings click on appearance and select the theme of your choice from the dropdown.
you can also install themes, they are the jar files
by
File > Import Settings, select the file or your choice and select ok
a pop up to restart the studio will open up click yes and studio will restart and your theme will be applied.
For additional themes I visited https://plugins.jetbrains.com/search?headline=164-theme&tags=Theme I was able to download one of them. I closed all my tabs opened and simply dragged and dropped the jar file. That was the way Android Studio prompted to restart. I tried importing the jar file as mentioned previously but it simply didn't work.
Thought I would add this as an answer, for anyone who accidentally mess up like I did!
It't not really an answer to the original question, but a few other posts refer to this post, so thought I would add it here (cause its slightly relevant to the question). Hope it helps someone!
Today I accidentally set my IDE font size on Android Studio very high (was going to set it to 10, but it accidentally became 110).
Now, the big issue for me was that opening the file menu was not possible (well, could open it, but could not get to the settings choice), so I had to figure out how to do it manually.
I found the Android Studio IDE settings in the Users/%username%/.AndroidStudioPreview/config folder and in there, the ui.inf.xml file, in which I could change the option FONT_SIZE back to a more manageable size.
Following image is android studio with 110 px font size on a 1920x1080 screen:
File->Settings->Appearance & Behavior-> Appearance and In theme select Darcula and apply dark background theme editor.
On OSX, in the menu bar at the top, click on Android Studio > Preferences > Appearance and you will see a theme drop down.
You can try this Making Android Studio pretty to change the android studio look and feel different.
To install Custom theme in android studio --version 4.1.2
download theme file(.jar) from https://plugins.jetbrains.com/
open android studio
drag the .jar file into studio
On Windows:
File-> Settings-> Appearance&Behavior-> Appearance:
Change "Theme field".
Simple. Just hit CTRL + alt + s - appearance & behavior - appearance - Theme - (Darcula)
You can use CTRL + SHIFT + A and then simply type theme to go directly to the theme settings. Same goes for pretty much any setting, refactoring or action you're looking for.
In Android Studio 3.4.2:
As mentioned in previous answers, you can change theme to Darcula in Appearance & Behavour > Appearance to have default dark theme.
Since macOS Mojave you can use dark mode in system. My issue was the system window bar was still light only for Android Studio:
Note there's an option to change this next to the theme selector: Use dark window headers
You can change or import a theme by using the icon that the "Duplicate Theme" arrow is pointing to in the photo.
Every one sees color differently. Most times a small change in contrast is all you need. Removing the hase from Dracula by changing the Background color to 242527 was perfect for me.
File - Settings - Appearance & Behavior - Appearance - CHOOSE Darcula in "Theme" - Press Apply.
or
Choose File - Settings - Editor - Colors & Fonts - Then SELECT Darcula in scheme name - Press Apply - restart Studio (sometimes not all elements implement theme)
