How change dimension programmatically?

I have more dimens

<resources>
    <dimen name="tag_text_size">10dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="text_separator_size">15dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="tag_text_count_size">8dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="text_home_page_size">20dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="item_text_head_size">15dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="item_text_time_size">10dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="item_text_price_size">14dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="item_text_address_pattern_size">12dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="item_text_address_size">14dp</dimen>
 <dimen name="setting_text_head_size">24dp</dimen>
  <dimen name="order_text_comment_size">11dp</dimen>
</resources>

and i use this dimen in my XML .. 

 <TextView
 android:textSize="@dimen/item_text_head_size" />

...

I want to programmatically change the dimen, it will allow me to change the size of strings everywhere

how can this be solved?

It is impossible to set the values for the dimen variables in your dimen.xml file programmatically from the activity.

The way to do what you want is to delete your android:textSize attributes and to change the text size at runtime using setTextSize() in Java.
