                //Creating the instance of PopupMenu
                PopupMenu popup = new PopupMenu(Products.this, hourglass);

                popup.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.hourglass_item, popup.getMenu());

                //registering popup with OnMenuItemClickListener
                popup.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
                    public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
                        Toast.makeText(Products.this, "You Clicked : " + item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        return true;
                    }
                });

                popup.show();//showing popup menu


            }
        });

I want set different background color for each item. i set android:drawable but this does not worked.

I can with this code can change text color but i does not know how can change background color item

 Menu menu=popup.getMenu();
MenuItem item = menu.getItem(0);
SpannableString s = new SpannableString("My red MenuItem");
s.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.RED), 0, s.length(), 0);
        item.setTitle(s);

Answer 1

If you want to use item tags and do this,as an alternative way you can tryBackgroundColorSpan and write the logic to reformat of the length of your strings.

s.setSpan(new BackgroundColorSpan(Color.RED), 0, s.length(), 0);

If i do that i'll crate a Dialog without a Title

private Dialog fakeDialogUseInstedOfMenuItem;


fakeDialogUseInstedOfMenuItem = new Dialog(MainActivity.this);
fakeDialogUseInstedOfMenuItem.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); // no Title
fakeDialogUseInstedOfMenuItem.setContentView(R.layout.my_custom_view);

and set a fixed or scroll view for that as the requirement

my_custom_view.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="250dp"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <ScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:background="#789"
            android:orientation="vertical">

            <LinearLayout
                android:id="@+id/first_lin"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:gravity="center">

                <TextView

                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:text="Option One"
                    android:textColor="#000"
                    android:textStyle="bold" />
            </LinearLayout>

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:background="#FFF"
                android:gravity="center">

                <TextView
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:text="Option Two"
                    android:textColor="#000"
                    android:textStyle="bold" />
            </LinearLayout>

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"></LinearLayout>

            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:background="#FFF"></LinearLayout>
        </LinearLayout>
    </ScrollView>


</LinearLayout>

and access items like this,

LinearLayout linearLayoutOneInDialog = (LinearLayout) fakeDialogUseInstedOfMenuItem.findViewById(R.id.first_lin);

But these things are optional ways
