Convert sp to pixels programmatically on android

Question

I need to convert scalable pixels (sp) to pixels programmatically in Android. I already know how to convert dp to pixels, but how do I convert sp to pixels?

Answer 1

You can use the Apply Dimen using TypeValue, like below.

public int spToPx(float sp, Context context) {
    return (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_SP, sp, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
}

It's an old question, you may found a lot of discussion about this
