I'm trying to use the TextView
constructor with style like this:
TextView myText = new TextView(MyActivity.this, null, R.style.my_style);
However, when I do this, the text view does not appear to take the style (I verified the style by setting it on a static object).
I've also tried using myText.setTextAppearance(MyActivity.this, R.style.my_style)
but it also doesn't work.

then inflate this to instantiate your new TextView:
Hope this helps.
